Yes, I know, another Peppers scenario


Dr.H

Recommended Posts

I know everybody is tired of Peppers scenarios, but how bout this idea.

We all know that Peppers is most likely gonna be franchised and traded. Well, what if we trade him for a 1 draft pick in next years draft. The QB pool is much better in next years draft. They can have that number one and then another first round pick next year. Then, depending on how the team does, they can use both picks to move up in the first round and get a QB like The Golden Calf of Bristol.

Also, I have seen a lot of people who have said that the Cardinals would not trade Boldin for Peppers, but I think they might. What about Peppers to the Browns (3-4 defense) for Braylon Edwards. I know he dropped a lot of balls last year, but he has a great upside and would be a great compliment to Smith. We could do that and then sign Haynesworth at DT. I like Lucas at CB and see no need to get Asomugha.

Also, I have mixed emotions on keeping Gross. I think we could replace him by moving Wharton back to LT and signing a guard. Maybe Alan Faneca depending on how much he wants. Or we could keep Hangartner and have him start at LG. I think he is capable. Maurice Williams with the Jags might also be a free agent. He has some talent. Also, for the DE problem. What about Ekuban or Kalimba Edwards, or Travis Laboy? I think they can easily fill the void at DE. That fills needs at DT and OL. And also a decent DE, and could also give us a solid #2 reciever. Then we can build in this years draft (addressing DE, OL, TE/FB, CB, and Saftey) and draft The Golden Calf of Bristol in next years draft. What about your thoughts?

Oh, we could also pick up Leftwich in free agency.

Umm how about not doing any of that.

First Trading peppers for a first next year doesn't help our cause this season now does it????? Fox isn't going to do that. It would be for picks in this years draft unless we got two first with one of them being in next years draft.

Second. Fox would rather get his QB in FA, he hasn't drafted but one QB and that was in the 4th/5th round. So you can knock that Idea out the window there.

Player for player deals hardly ever happen in the nfl. If we trade Peppers it will be for Picks not another player. WR isn't a need we have good depth there even if we cut Hackett.

Haynesworth has too many character question too end up here. Asomugha will be Franchise tagged by Oakland. So there's those.

Now for the Line movement, We do not want Wharton back at LT, he's only average there where at LG he's really really good. OT in FA is really really slim pickings for OT's as well especially for LT's. Faneca signed a massive deal last offseason with the Jets.

Draft wise.....

We need DE, DT and even some more Dline depth. Maybe a backup corner to go behind Marshall if do in fact cut Lucas.

Leftwich is a no go though, his arm delivery is horrible for the NFL.

    • These are the three deep throw attempts that Will Levis made in week 12. His first one is a beauty; Levis and Westbrook-Ikhine gets the safety to bite on a deep dig only to go over the top for the score. His second throw is another beauty: a crosser to Calvin Ridley reminiscent of Bryce to XL (though Ridley has noticeably more separation on his route). His third and final deep shot was an incompletion from his own endzone on 3rd & 14 with pressure coming down on him (to me, this seems like a solid throw).   Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-02.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-01.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-01.mp4 Levis took half of the deep shots that Young did. The differences are: Ridley had much better separation than XL, which is why his deep crosser turned into a 63yd play since he was able to scamper for another 15+ after the catch. Westbrook-Ikhine holds on to his TD pass. Bryce had to throw one away to preserve time for a field goal. Bryce had two more throws that were incomplete due to the WR Are we really holding the three WR errors and clock management decision against Bryce in order to say that Will was better throwing deep in week 12? That's not passing the eye test nor is it confirmed by the data.
    • If you go on the PUP list before the season starts, you are gone for the year. If you start the year on the PUP list then you can get off of it. Kind of semantics, but we are putting him on the PUP list now which is before week 1, that’s why people who come off of it aren’t really on the PUP list until week 1, hence you usually hear right before the season that they are “starting the year” on the PUP list. I think PUP list and IR may basically be the serve the same purpose now because you also sometimes hear that if a player is added to the IR before week 1 that they aren’t eligible to come off the IR list for the entire year. Now, everyone added to IR (post week 1) can come off after 4 (or more) games so the PUP list is meaningless since it’s 6 games and starts at week 1. Anyone added to PUP or IR in the preseason is gone for the year.
    • I saw Brooks maybe a few weeks ago, he was walking pretty normally. of course he wasnt running, jumping and cutting.
