Peppers-to-Redskins rumors go to full boil


The Saltman

Recommended Posts

Just like I said.....

Less than two hours until the start of free agency, rumors are flying that the Washington Redskins will soon be signing defensive end Julius Peppers.

And we're hearing that the situation has progressed well beyond the Redskins "charging hard." We're hearing it's essentially done -- and that barring an unexpected development the only question is whether the deal will be announced before or after the sun rises in D.C.

There was a guy on here 2 years ago that claimed he knew Julius' brother or his aunt's cousin's 2nd cousin's uncle's grandma's baby daddy's brother that said Pep told someone he grew up a Skins fan and dreamed about playing for them and would be going there when he became a free agent.

I been thinking about that ever since.... and it was (supposedly) JP's brother, I think. I don't care where he goes... just don't want him in our division... let him underperform for a billion on my 3rd least favorite team.. fine with me

Yeah I always thought that rumor made the most sense. As a kid, before we got the Panthers I remember everybody being a Skins fan... Plus, if it really is about the money and it's an uncapped year... Snyder will make his dreams come true.

It was me that actually posted it a couple of years ago (different account). Peppers' half brother (Stephone) was the one who told me that he would be a Skin if he ever became a free agent. He tailgated with us before a Sunday or Monday night game because he was close to one of my boys. He said that his family ripped him because he was a Panther and his room at his mom's house still had Redskins stuff everywhere.

    • In May of 2026, it looks like a challenging schedule...and it probably is.  I rarely listen to the "strength of schedule" conversations that light up social media this time of year. Each year teams improve and decline. I think there's chunks of the year we need to take care of business and the week 5 bye is not desired.  I do think if we don't hit the bye week at 3-1, it's going to be a major uphill battle given the schedule in front of us. This season falls on three people, regardless of schedule strength: Canales, Bryce, Evero.  Canales: Finally can truly coach all aspects of the team and not focus with gameday prep for OC duties anymore. He drives the bus and needs to get these guys in position to win each week. There's no way vets come in and put it on the line every week to watch our QB sh!t the bed (See: SF game last year). Bryce: Despite everyone's obsession with thinking Bryce is a guaranteed extension, I think this year will truly be his "prove it" year. If he comes out the way he has the past three years, I really don't see how vets and coaches can continue to put him under center long-term. He might play out that fifth year as the starter, but I think next offseason his long-term replacement is found. I also think there's no excuses with the weapons and commitment we've made on offense to insulate him with every possible weapon.  Evero: Best personnel he's had since he's been here...no excuses. Figure out how to blitz effectively. Figure out how to use CBs whose strengths are press/man. Figure out how to utilize a talented front-7 to get the hell of the field. Outside of FS and maybe....maybe ILB, there are few weaknesses on this unit. 
    • Canales can never get his teams ready in the first week of the season so far. Hope that changes or Ben Johnson is going to take his azz to school.
