Action for Peppers may take a while

The best benchmark to go by is the Jared Allen situation last year. But it wasn't done until April 22nd and as far as we know Jared was not hand picking a small number of teams he would sign for.

Don't be surprised if both sides sit down across the table and just glare at each other for the next 10 weeks.

I say call his ass up and say this 'look enough of your bs, that list needs to take off three NFC teams and add 15 more AFC Teams. We will talk to you closer to the draft if at all. In the mean time be prepared to show up to the manditory workouts so you can get ready to play special teams as well'.

Screw peppers the whiny ass. He will go where it best fits the PANTHERS, not his candy ass.

when did trading a player become a player picking where he wants to go?

When players started to demanding 8 figures. No team is going to trade a high draft pick for a 1 year rental. If he doesn't sign a long term deal beforehand that could be exactly what happens.

Pep was using the hand picking as a way to keep from being tagged. Now he has to make a deal with anyone who will pony up the picks. If not he is not left with many options. Play or sit and he dose not want to have to pick between those options.

Even if it is true that some GM's are drooling over Peppers, nobody is going to give up early draft picks and be on the hook for a huge contract until they see what free agency has to offer first.

There is no one on Peppers level in the draft or in FA. Someone is gonna pony up some picks. Trust me.

Hell if I was another GM I would love to have peppers he is a beast.

    • I'll toss my 2 pennies(rip) into this. I was not a fan of the Dan hire, I'd say 80against/20meh. The right hand stuff and being a part of what I viewed as the sorriest panther team in history...... The deal is some of the first moves he did saved NOTHING in cap space. He waived Bozeman, Vonn Bell, and Hurst.....That to me doesn't feel like Firererererere was listening to Dan to a high degree. Dan didn't have a 1st rounder which was 1st overall due to the supreme suckage. He didn't have 2nd rounder this past year which was a early pick right where the talent of the 2025 was. Plus the cap was not in the best shape.... The QB deal was in deep water as well. If you factor this extreme mess and analyze the current OL, DL, WR, and RB groups..... I have. Use your normal realistic cues. Even without playing the first game of this season, you must see improvement, right?? He simply could not fix all the problems, but the problems he choose to tackle... He did so like it was the 2003 Superbowl all over again. Factor in depth and age, those groups check the difficult boxes. Most of the players are young, locked in contracts, and there *should* be depth behind the starters. He's not going to bat 1.000, his mistakes have been pointed out numerous times. IMO, he does need some props for what I feel he's done right. Trade wise he's been killing the value side- extra future 2nd, starter level CB that's 28 year old for 240 picked LB that's bounced around the league, and moved up without giving the classic herniay future picks to land two edges whom are only behind QBs on the most valued chart. He also got a early 2nd and 2 5ths for a 8 sack-a-year edge that got nearly 30 mill per.  Sure its got to play out and positive results are needed. Still if you know NFL and been watching since the herniay&gettlegut eras, you got to feel the process is on the up and up. Im not talking in typical off-season hopuim fluff either.... It's not over by any means either(please give him until the 2026 season end), maybe this is a real foundation in the making, us Panthers don't even know what that is...... This could be the first real long lasting winner than us fans have never had in 30 years and we are witnessing it....        
    • I feel like we have some depth; we just need that proven nickel. Mike Jackson is a decent #2, but ideally we'd have a proven veteran in the slot. Smith-Wade might be able to fill that role, but he's far from a sure thing.
    • Todd mcshay is doing a deep dive each week on the top propects.  Although he likes manning as a top guy he doesnt think he is coming out but he absolutey raves about Cade, Sellers and Garrett n.   Cade is the jack of all trades, does everything kindof well, Garrett is the big game hunter that has pin point accuracy, and sellers is the wildcard, the tools and arm is simply off the chart.  So adding in Manning and allar this class has unreal potential
