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.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
