how bout we get a little more positive about the peppers situation........yes i know another peppers thread. but look at it like this, beason and harris can take this defense over and motivate the players around them! and the giants lost they're two best pass rushers and they're D was still nasty! as long as we make some good FA moves to shore up our d line we could be a top 5 defense! we have all the ingredients still to get that elusive lombardi trophy. seriously we can build on this season! look @ miami 1-15 to 11-5. 12-4 is a lot easier to build on!

what's real..is that Peppers may get a rude awakening. I think he realizes that he can't live up to the expectations of the team...and more so the fans. He honestly hasn't been able to for about 3 years now. He wants out before he disgraces his name with the organization and team. Keeping it real, he's not the same Julius Peppers that we signed as far as his drive to " prove himself". It appears to me that he feels as if he's shown how massive of an athlete he is/was, and it took him a year off to realize it. This year, not only was he trying to prove himself, but to the other NFL teams as well that he "still has it". Maybe he realized that he may have lost a step and can't disgrace his name on the back of fans jerseys...and decided to leave on the "Jordan theory".

What's real...is that he's gonna go somewhere else and see that he has to start all over again, and maybe should've stayed where he was. Not saying that he won't be successful..just don't think he'll be as successful as he wants to be paid for.

Here in The Huddle any light at the end of a tunnel is a train.

LOL.

Although I am not happy that Peppers is leaving, I hope that we can get some good picks out of it. I don't have confidence in Turdo's schemes...but hey anything can happen I guess.

That's about as positive as I can get at the moment.

I agree at the getting a rude awakening part. Unless he has really been holding out on what he can do (which I cant beleive) then what does he think is going to happen when he signs a huge contract with a new team??

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
