Peppers is THE MOST VALUABLE defender in the league

He was completely underutilized here and I understand why he wants out. Think about what a coordinator like Jim Johnson could do with Pep?? Its unreal to think about the amount of pressure that he would put on a QB with JJs blitz schemes. We spent so much time rushing 4 or dropping him into a zone blitz that he never realized his full potential. I'm pissed that he wants to go but hopefully Hurney doesn't screw the pooch in the trade because after a 15 sack season and his pedigree there is no doubt in my mind that he is the most valuable defender in the league when he gets in a potent system.

On another note...If Pep walks then Fox might as well walk as well because his entire defense is built around this one player. As much as I love playing the 4-3 it doesn't work without pressure. If we trade Peppers, Richardson needs to seriously consider making a STRONG run at a coach that builds 3-4 defenses (not necessarily Cowher but he is the prime target) because this line is ATROCIOUS without that man on the end...

I agree totally.....I do think we could bring the god of D-coordinators here and it would do noting for him. He was beat by a journeyman LT single blocked all game. He will only be rejuvenated with new surroundings. Our scheme is terrible......Passive zones. Peppers dropping back.

      Yep, like I said, I don't mind guaranteeing them money, but make the contracts smaller amounts in order to minimize cap implications. I don't know about "half," the actual amounts, whether more or less than half, would have to be determined by the NFL and NFLPA (which will probably be highly contentious, if not "impossible").  I'm just for whatever leads to the best product on the field while also unaffecting my wallet. As an aside, the NFL owners are greedy bastards in my estimation. They're trying to keep a larger portion of the pie, but players' agents are greedy as well, and they've sewn seeds of greed among the players. It's not all their fault; we all know what our society has evolved into, but the NFL wants a bigger piece of our smaller pocketbooks and refuses to "negotiate" with us (that's why we don't have cheaper and more reasonable à la carte options to view games that they're gradually trying to migrate to paid TV), so fu<k 'em. And then on top of that we have guys trying to water down the product even more by feeding greed. Change the way things are done so that we can at least see players prove themselves on the field without throwing wrenches into the engine that pays guys that have proven they can play on a pro level.

      OK, I didn't realize this was about high school, but...if I'm spending my personal money trying to help some kids out, then no one is going to tell me how to spend my money. I get enough of the government spending my money--allocating my tax dollars--to children who don't really need anything, and now they're trying to tell me how to spend my personal money? Sure, there are many other issues to consider and rabbit holes that we could go down due to ethical concerns because it concerns kids, and the need for transparency is extremely important, but maybe as opposed to trying to stop kids from benefitting in darkness, we need to open up the blinds (and blinders) a little bit so that they can benefit in the light. I get where you're coming from, but this is a loaded and layered issue, and I'm just trying to give you some food for thought.
