yeah, it would have been a bad idea to include a link in another one of the million peppers threads.

a thread with only a link....genius.

:coolgleamA:

I dont read to far into the older threads. They are usually way off the subject. Time for something new. Next time I will have you proofread my thread to see if it is post worthy.

Interesting. Quoted from the story. For those of you who cant read and just try to be cool forum police.

I continue to hear from league sources that Carolina would accept trading Peppers for the second-round pick New England acquired for Matt Cassel (34th overall).

Sounds like Vic is trying to save face. I don't see this trade going down or the Panthers accepting just a 2nd round pick.

I might have to agree with you here. Usually I like Vic's columns, but I think he went out on a limb on this last one and is now just trying to make it sound like, "Oh, well really....uhm, it was just a kinda hunch...errr..."

I think the Patriots would gladly accept Peppers, but the Panthers organization won't want a 2nd round pick.

Give me a link where vic's article is in another post.

If this deal is so close, I just wonder why pep isnt signing the tender. I think there will be something else with the 34. Maybe a next year pick?

At this point, I don't really care where he goes. I hate the Patriots and the Cowboys but if it means we get rid of his $17 mil. salary and get some good picks in return, than I don't care. I don't want to pay a player $17 mil. when he doesn't even want to be a part of the team.

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
