Bears can cut Peppers after one year

LOL, you guys sound like a chick that was dumped.

Welcome to the NFL post 1993, this is what happens - every once in a while you lose a good player.

Man, you really missed the point of the OP.

We were laughing at Peppers agent who basically put together a 1 year $20M contract. The Bears have all of the leverage and Pep could be left sitting (unpaid) in 2011.

The Bears were incredibly smart (if they think Pep was worth a $20M rental fee....which I don't). But, long-term they hold all the cards and Pep's agent looks like someone capable of running a lemoade stand.

HAHAHA!!! 20 million for one year. Idiots.

Stupid runs deep around here. All these folks who are so glad Peppers is gone are the ones who start a new thread every 5 minutes.

This is funny because this is about the same amount we would have paid him had we franchise tagged him this year.. seems to me that Peppers would have been OK with us tagging him again.. it's precisely the deal Peppers was looking for.

Pep is gonna find out really fast that Carey is not cut out to be an NFL agent, putting together a contract like that is horrible for someone like Pep.

or maybe he is....Pep got out of Carolina and this year he is getting paid basically the same crazy figure that he would have recieved if tagged for another year. Straight up F you money.

I say Pep's agent has consistantly gotten PEPPERS great deals year to year recently.

    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
    • Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
