From the Rocky Mount Telegram: “If Peppers wants to leave, let him.”


Recommended Posts

So carolinarolls, I guess you’re not the only one who thinks we should let Pepp walk. :)

The Panthers have to look within and decide whether it makes sense to keep a player who doesn’t want to be there or, at the very least, earn some top draft picks by trading Peppers. It doesn’t seem as Carolina is capable of making Peppers change his mind. An unhappy player is usually an unproductive player.

Sort of a simplistic view of the situation, as I’d bet that if the Panthers can acquire some top draft picks (and I’m not talking about two firsts) we’d be willing to deal Peppers.

Not the most enlightening article, but I just figured we could all use a little more Peppers discussion. :rolleyes:

They aren't saying let him go for nothing...

Carolina needs to make a move before April’s draft.

Doesn't really put them in Carolinarolls' camp.

Now I have a camp?

lol

It's too late to let him go for nothing. He's been tagged. he should have been let go for nothing and we should have tagged Gross again. With solid RB's we should be looking for a stud LT in the next year or two instead of locking up Gross and tagging a guy that wants out, limits the trade process of him, and essentially handcuffs us all Spring and makes us scramble around saving cap room in a time when every other team in the league is dealing with a surplus.

but I digress

    • Well, as far as backups go, Kyle Allen is actually a decent one.  Better at this point than Dalton probably. That being said, Hooker apparently had an atrocious game against the Texans.  
    • i wouldn't say that yet. I also wouldn't say he's done anything that makes me think he's particularly good. i think that's about right for compensation both ways for thielen considering the state of the vikings and Panthers.  The weirdest thing is that technically the panthers should be adding veteran salary cap right now; they have a high cost first overall qb on a rookie contract; that's the best advantage in the NFL in this day and age. It hasn't worked out because, well, the qb they drafted isn't good and they've ignored other parts of the team to try to bolster him.  so what's morgan really supposed to do? Are they tanking with a rookie qb in year three that the owner probably personally wanted drafted? Are they actually trying to win games this year with 80 career catches between their top three receivers? The defense is probably going to be terrible. What kind of jump are people actually expecting from Coker, Bryce, XL, and performance from a rookie to overcome that? It's not realistic.  At the end of the day I don't think Thielen wanted to end his career here and I don't blame him. Minnesota is going to compete this year and Carolina isn't. I also think this is to toss Bryce to the wolves and be done with him one way or another. There's no way this works. This is not a move you make if you're trying to win football games.
