I know there's a thread speculating about the four teams, but I heard John Clayton say on ESPN radio this morning that the teams are:

Dallas

Washington

Philadelphia

Mystery AFC team

He also gave reasons today on why those teams won't go for Peppers.

All I heard him say is that the Cowboys already have DeMarcus Ware. He didn't even mention the fact that they don't have a first.

I didn't hear him give any reasons why Washington or Philly would go for him. He only said that the Panthers wouldn't want to send him to either of those teams.

Also, he said that he thinks Peppers will remain in Carolina for at least this season, and that we would try to let time heal the wounds and sign him to a long term deal sometime this summer.

Such as?

I actually turned in late from NFLN and caught the tail end of it. It was during Mike and Mike.

But first off the obvious is that the Cowboys don't have a first rounder, and that they are trying to make Ware the highest paid defensive player.

Then the summary was that how those three teams were not likely, I have been trying to see if they would replay it.

Those may be the three teams Peppers wants to go to, he was just giving reasons why those teams were not likely.(or that so far they haven't showed interest)(whether his statements are true or not is up in the air, but he was saying it)

Maybe it's the drugs I'm on(had surgery yesterday) but he sure was sounding like those teams were not likely.

Maybe I misunderstood that with him having reasons, because I didn't see all of it.

Yeah, he was most definitely calling those trade possibilities unlikely, he just didn't give any specific reasons except for the dallas stuff

      LT Ikem Ekwonu wants to remain in Carolina long term but has no timeline for an extension

      Curious what his price is, but definitely think we need to resign him. Hard to find a quality tackle - he's definitely improved and having a stable guard in lewis beside him has helped a ton. Still needs to work on the false start and holding penalties though

      Yeah, you want actual Panthers fans to succeed. Same with poor Will Levis a few years ago. You just wish the local ACTUAL Panthers fans(very rare in the first place), pan out.  But, alas, it is what it is. I don't know if it is as simple as having Ikey switch to RT immediately. I think the cleanest switch would have been to attempt that for him as a LG. But, we spent a fuging shitload of dough on our IOL.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      Seriously? You think we might have 4 or even 5 starters the next couple years from last year’s draft? Wallace and Legette were starters because of injuries and no good depth. We’ve already resigned Thielen and drafted TMac. I’d be shocked if Legette isn’t WR4 (snap/target/production wise) behind those two and Coker. I’m not Sure if Wallace will stay a starter with Rozeboom. Smith-Wade might be the likeliest starter for now because we didn’t draft a CB. We’ll see if he sticks. Sanders may also start but the starting TE is like being the tallest midget. We’ve had about 500ish receiving yards from TEs each of the past 3 years whether it was Thomas/Tremble or Tremble/Hurst or Tremble/Sanders. Honestly, if Evans can stay healthy, the fact that he can actually block (unlike Thomas who sucked but was called a blocking TE) and catch could make him the best starter we have at TE. Also, Brooks missing two of four rookie contract seasons and caused us to draft Etienne in the 4th and sign Dowdle. Sorry man, you’re smoking some serious hopium trying to justify last year’s draft as if it was good. We are one of the worst talented teams in the NFL over the past 7 seasons and sometimes that means that we get a lot of rookie contributors but it doesn’t mean it was a good draft. Until the rookies are actually above average starters it’s like going from Thomas to Tremble to Sanders to Evans. There’s no impact to our win total until one of them actually is more than just a starter because we have to play someone. One last nugget, we won’t be a playoff team if 25% of our starters are from the 2024 draft.
