Does anyone know why Peppers won't sign his tender?

FACT: Julius Peppers has not signed his $16.68 million tender offer.

FACT: Peppers does not want to play with the Panthers next year.

FACT: We cannot trade Peppers until he signs his tender nor can we discuss with any other teams the possibility of trading him.

FACT: Peppers said in early January about the Panthers, "I don’t want to leave them crippled or in a bad situation."

So Peppers wants out, but we can't do anything about that until he signs his tender. He refuses to do so.

CONCLUSION: Julius Peppers is a lying bitch that apparently DOES want to cripple the Panthers.

FACT: Pep and his agent want to have COMPLETE control over where he ends up, and he loses that the day he signs...

I believe you are a very bitter person...

FACT: Julius Peppers has not signed his $16.68 million tender offer.

True.

FACT: Peppers does not want to play with the Panthers next year.

Not completely true.

FACT: We cannot trade Peppers until he signs his tender nor can we discuss with any other teams the possibility of trading him.

We can't... His agent can speak to anyone he likes.

FACT: Peppers said in early January about the Panthers, "I don’t want to leave them crippled or in a bad situation."

...and he doesn't...

So Peppers wants out, but we can't do anything about that until he signs his tender. He refuses to do so.

You don't know any more than anyone besides Julius what he exactly wants. Who said we WOULD do something about it once he signs his tender?

CONCLUSION: Julius Peppers is a lying bitch that apparently DOES want to cripple the Panthers.

You couldn't be further from the truth, and I guarantee you you wouldn't say that to his face.

Julius will either be a Panther next season or he won't... Move along.. There are more interesting things to discuss... You are letting this define the offseason..

NO, but his agent can shop Peppers all he wants, which validates the other poster's point.

But by not getting a deal done, they are crippling the team. The team can't adequately prepare for the draft because they don't know if Peppers will be gone for certain, what extra picks they may or may not get in a Peppers trade. They also have zero cap room until they move Peppers.

They prepare for every draft the same, by scouting every single player that has a chance of being drafted. Take that pool and knock it down to players you like and where you would take said player at. It doesn't matter where you drafting at, that can all change. They can make a move and trade peppers or they can decide not to do so and it wouldn't affect the way they prepare for the draft. They are still scouting first round talent, Do we have a first round pick??????

No we don't at the moment.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Let's be completely honest about this... Our WR room is AT and a bunch of question marks. Thielen is the only guy we know who knows the route tree completely, understands play calls and can regularly get open/beat close coverage when necessary. He's long in the tooth, isn't the speediest guy on the field but he plays like a pro, starting level wide receiver. Xavier, last season looked great at first, but man he kind of petered out down the stretch and would disappear in a number of games. He wasn't reliable on routes or getting open and where he was supposed to be a king at contested catches, he often looked a bit intimidated. I'm not saying he's a washout by any means. Anyone with his size, speed and catch radius could make it big in the NFL, but can he do it? He'll need to show more than he did in the preseason before we can really rely on him as a WR1 or WR2.  Coker was a revelation last season, he really played way above his (non)draft status and flashed multiple times in games and was a steady performer. What we need to find out, though, is whether he was benefiting from being an unknown that wasn't getting maximum effort from opposing DBs or if he was just outworking and outhustling everyone on the field. We should find out this season. We sure as hell didn't find out much in the pre-season (from him or any receiver or QB for that matter). He's still a question mark, but I think he has the look of the real deal. He might be this generation's next Thielen. Now, let's talk about Tet. High first round draft pick, first true WR off the board this year. Stellar career out west in college. Has the swagger of the WR1. And man, y'all are going to get mad about this but... he comes across as a mook. And in the pre-season he performed, well, not so great against poor opposition of second and third stringers. Yeah, he caught that one moonshot ball in the first game but really, nothing else lighting the place up. Rookie endzone drop in that game, too. He's still young and adjusting, I'm sure, but I was hoping to see something of a breakthrough kind of guy. I'm still looking. Hunter Renfro? Gosh, I hope he can make the team and make a comeback to his old form. It would be such a great story. But maybe neither one of those happens. We won't know until Tuesday and then, if he makes it past there it could be weeks. So, TL;DR: AT is all we can bank on right now. We couldn't afford to let him go considering the number of unknowns we'd be throwing out there for our QB, who himself is still an unknown. One thing to add: Our receivers coaching group has their work cut out for them. I hope they are up to the task, but the pre-season gave me little reason to believe in them. And I really need something to believe in here in Carolina.

      2025 Roster Cuts

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Linebacker is the biggest need - I hope we figure out a way to address it. Krys Barnes is the only one who even moderately flashed.  Super nervous about Trevin/Rozeboom as a duo (Still like Trevin) I'd be excited if we had a better vet to mentor Trevin.  Or a better younger guy to support Rozeboom.  They just don't fit well and it may be a big problem against the run, even with our DL much improved.
