is Peppers gone before/during/after Draft Day

I don't really care how this thing plays out. The only 2 things I want are....if he stays, sign a fair deal, play hard and make us proud. If he goes, get fair compensation in picks or players. I can live with either. It's time to get past this and move on.

:iagree:

I am wondering that if he is holding the FO hostage, how is that going to affect his overall appeal to other teams. I think Pep is getting a lesson in reality as to how valuable he really is to the competition......

I do agree with Gantt about taking what Pep says seriously though since he seldom says anything at all.

Gantt is giving his intelligence far too much, IMO. Peppers didn't have a clue the resolve of the Panthers when he opened his mouth. He'll be here or sitting at home not getting paid, his choice and his alone...

I want to see him traded. If he plays under the tag this season, the Panthers are truly an injury away from losing the entire season. We have zero depth on the OL, zero depth on the DL, and zero depth at CB.

We will draft some mid round talent, but will be very exposed this season.

Even if Peppers plays well, an injury on the OL, CB, or DL would end the season.

I am starting to think the Pantehrs would be a better team without Pep (if we added 4-5 mid tier FA's), than if we had no depth and Peppers on the DL.

:iagree:

    • yeah, now it's going to get awkward.  The team circles pay attention to all this stuff.  All the wives and girlfriends see the posts.  They all talk like everyone.  Football is just a normal world outside of the fact they play a game for lots of money.  Gossip travels. They know the Theilen's want out at this point.  Carolina is now the disappointed failed trade location.    So now AT takes sort of an inhouse hit in Carolina IMO  
    • Ummm... The dude looked like he was about 180 pounds soaking wet with us (I don't care what his listed weight was/is) - he would have been destroyed in the run game even more than our current and past crappy ILBs. The problem is we primarily play 3-4 or nickel/dime - there is little room on the field for him because he isnt an edge LB blitzer and he can't cover for crap. The only thing he can do kind of well is be an in-the-box safety that can try and beat blockers to the spot because of his athleticism. Washington was able to make him work last year because they used him solely as an in-the-box safety and almost exclusively ran a single high FS. The funny thing is they had good yards/game stats against the pass despite most of their secondary having embarrassingly low PFF grades. Washington was also terrible against the run, which might explain why they gave up so few yards passing.
    • Just get the deal done. We've teased it so much that the Thielen's expect it. Now we run the risk of our veteran WR locker room presence becoming disgruntled. Just take what we can get, make him happy, and get future assets while freeing up snaps for guys who will be here beyond this season.
