I had asked douche bag yasinskas similar questions, but he didn't answer.

Does the tender that the panthers offer expire, on Peppers' side? I mean, theoretically, if there is no expire date, and he doesnt sign it until mid season, what would happen to his contract? would it be prorated? I assume he can't get fined for missing camps/preseason because he has never signed a contract. If it got to this point (or even post-draft, camp time), don't you think the panthers will just be forced to drop him considering:

1- They need to sign draft picks

2- They can't negotiate with other teams until he signs it

And this is what Peppers wants right? To be let go with no strings attached. This entire franchise process seems really flawed for Peppers' case, there should definitely be a date he has to either agree to sign it and play the year, or forfeit his right to play in the NFL that entire year. This would avoid situations like this, as he is definitely crippling the panthers.

Why they tagged him to begin with is beyond me. Any idiot could foresee this possible scenario and be able to deem it too risky.

True, but i would take that risk. Peppers would be ruined as an All Pro DE if he sat the year out.

Where is the risk?

This has been labelled as one of the worst ever free agency classes, especially in the last 5 or so years. So who would we have got from that?

Considering where we are picking in the draft, we also do not need big bucks for our draftees.

In addition we could get some real nice compensation if he does move on.

If he doesnt move on, I would guess it is mainly because HE has been too specific and that could give him a HUGE reality check.

You don't get why they tagged him? Really? I would answer that but you still dont get it even after the reasons have been stated hundreds of times. Thats a YOU problem.

None taken Mintal, but I'm pretty sure my question about franchise tender expiration wasn't asked before from what I've tried to search. It was a genuine, non-retarded, non-basic question that not everyone knows the answer to. I wouldn't ask something that has obviously already been answered multiple times.

Thanks for answering carpanfan96.

Agreed... Was actually a great post and one I had not thought about.

      OFFICIAL 2026 Undrafted Free Agent Thread

      By csx · Posted

      I just dont get the worry over losing a practice squad player that just went undrafted. Everyone just made their selections. The chances of a team wanting to sign him to an active roster after not selecting him is very low.  If that interested they would have taken him late to evaluate in person. As far as I can tell two qbs were signed off another teams practice squad last season and they were both going in to their 5th season.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By frankw · Posted

      I enjoyed reading this thread and the usual banter that follows. The only silver lining I can identify right now is we do actually have a couple of young QB's behind him and we do have a nice roster on both sides of the ball built around the most important position. So if the team overall shows some promise but we still falter largely due to a lack of consistent passing output (again) hopefully the decision makers can be free to make the best decision for the team going forward after the conclusion of this upcoming season.

      I don't really follow the team anymore due to a variety of reasons and consequently have largely stopped posting but I agree that this is a lovely website and community. This forum probably kept me around for years longer than I would've stuck otherwise because of how difficult it was to stop checking multiple times a day. Especially appreciate how lax the moderation tends to be compared to a lot of places, the crew here does a great job. Out of curiousity I decided to try making a new account (solely for testing purposes) to see what exactly is wrong with the sign up process. The issue seems to be that it never sends you an account verification email, thus making it impossible to complete registration. This is likely something to do with the email server upstream, hope it gets fixed. Also, lol
