If we can't reach a deal with Gross and Tag him, I will lose respect for Gross and how our office runs things. IMHO, it's not about having something lined up for Pep. This is all about Gross. He's the one we want. We can slap the tag on Pep with our eyes closed. This whole issue revolves around Gross. If we can't reach a deal with him we are forced to Tag him, thus letting Pep go.

"I hate to say this," said my attorney as we sat down at the Merry-Go-Round Bar on the second balcony, "but this place is getting to me. I think I'm getting The Fear."

And now, I'm getting The Fear, too.

This was also after he had huffed on a pint of raw ether....

I just can't imagine that scenario playing out.

Gross' agent said just a few days ago that the team and Gross wasn't even close to agreement on a contract, so do you suggest we let Gross hit the market while still trying to sign him. While franchising Peppers and trading him before hand.

The team has three options right now really.

Give in to gross and gets his deal done now.

Franchise gross and let peppers walk

Franchise peppers and let Gross hit the FA market and hope we can sign him.

If Gross is serious about playing here I can't believe we won't get something done. Since we are willing to franchise him for around 9 million, I can't believe money is the issue. We should be willing to pay him what he wants feeling that in a year or two it will be a bargain. I wonder if maybe Gross doesn't want to commit for more than a few years in the event the CBA isn't renewed.

If we want draft picks for Peppers we will need to franchise him. I expect drawing it out is still a negotiating tool and playing a high stakes game of chicken with Gross to see who will flinch.

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      Im very similar to Ron in being a company/league man. But that ends after the third head hit, I would have lost my religion. Then after I got kicked out of the game, Id 100% be dropping nukes in the after-game presser. fug you fine me whatever, I am going to protect my QB and since logic and reason isn't being used, I can be the bad guy.  The replays showed clear evidence, Id feel no shame in cussing out a crew of chicken poo refs. In fact Id tell the video staff to play infractions on a split screen during my press conference.

      And even worse you have injuries force you to play anther one dimensional train wreck combine that with Orlov being no were close to as advertised and boom you have 3 defensemen being dressed who couldn't defend my 96 year old grandmother. That said next year having Slavin,Miller,Nikishin,Chatfield gives you the best shutdown d man in the league two large athletic HIGH offensive potential D who can take away time and space....   The more I think about it the more I like this seasons approach, if you bring back burns or aquire anther large RHS with length you have 5 D all over 6'2 and 210 with three of them having great offense too, make no mistake they want size and skill on the blue line now and its almost 100% directed at getting past FL.

      Breakout 2025 Candidates

      Honestly the 2024 draft class(minus brooks). All are in line to be starters, expect crumedy who's fighting for a 53.  Still that class was looking terrible, is now looking like 4 starters and maybe 1 depth. Anytime you draft 2 starters and a key depth piece its a good draft. 4 starters are rare and that's with brooks who could have made 5 starters if not for awful luck.  That draft also helped land starter Michael Jackson in a round about way, big bonus..
