Does Peppers scare anyone that bad?

Peppers was a stud in Carolina. A stud who did play in a conservative defensive scheme and one where his exceptional talent was often used to prevent plays instead of making them.

I think it is funny how our fanbase is wanting to pretend that one of the biggest freaks in the NFL is going to be easily handled simply b/c he got tired of Carolina. It is a business and he gave us some good quality years, well worth it.

When was Peppers a "stud" on the field? He would have his moments of "Wow" and then disappear for plays and games at a time.

Secondly, let him go. That is fine, he is a Free Agent. However, his positioning that he will dictate our move is comical at best. He is the property of the Panthers...plain and simple. We will let him walk, but we will also get dequate compensation.

The Panthers will not accept less to apease a player who is walking out the door.

He was a stud 6 of his 7 years. Ok, name any defensive player you do consider a stud who doesn't "disappear at times" on plays and games. These "conditions" are probably just bs his agent came up with and is spinning and most likely not something Peppers has even cooked up. It is a business and that is part of it. You gotta be unreasonable at first in order to get the other side to meet you in the middle at times.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By Panthers Addict · Posted

      I do think the rating is fair given how this unit hasn’t proven it with production. I understand you have to rank off production, not potential. However, our unit is also in a position to make this rating look foolish a year from now. We have 4 guys in the WR/TE room who all could legitimately take the next step this year, and catapult our rank. A guy under a lot of people’s radar after we took Tet, Jalen Coker. Mark my words, he will become the star of this room, and be the heir to Thielen.

      Exactly. You’d think 2-7 wins a year (in a 17 game season no less) since 2017 is going to keep us bottom tier. Every year we say the same poo like we haven’t been a bad team the past 7 years. Until we prove we aren’t a bottom dweller, that’s where we’ll stay ranked. God forbid we have OL injuries like 2016.

      Breakout 2025 Candidates

      What I love and hate about this team is it’s more filled with potential breakout players than ever before. JT, XL, Coker, Smith-Wade, Ikem, Trevin… and even Bryce are all guys I could legitimately see taking the next step. But the problem with having so many of those guys is that team success somewhat relies on them taking that step, and some are bound not to. That being said, I’m cautiously optimistic given our softer schedule, the way the offense clicked late last year, and the direction we finally have at GM, coach, and QB. Could see us as a sneaky playoff team.
