The problem with Julius Peppers is he needs to be paid, and he is trying to control the process. He is being selective. We would like to have him, but there's a lot has to fall the right way.

Quoted on the condition of anonymity.

My guess is this is someone from the Pats.

IMO that wouldn't dovetail with the Pats being that team unless they are NOT on his "list". The reason I say that is the "he is being selective" part. What could he be selective about that would make sense besides the team he wants to go to? And if his being "selective" is making things tougher for the anonymous team, my conclusion is that they aren't on Pep's list.

The getting paid part is what they'd have issues with.

What makes me think the Pats is that last sentence echos what Billy boy's said in the past.

The chances of him staying are looking more grim.

I agree with everything but the grim part. While losing him may hurt us in the short term, I think the net effect will be beneficial. He is a good, but not great player, and for the price we pay, he should be great. Better to get two good players (even if we have to wait till next year to get them) for what Peppers cost us.

I'm hoping your right... Although, I won't be mad if he stays, we will need him this year if only to give Brown 1 year to adapt to the NFL.

As we get further and further into '09, I'm starting to feel the same way.

I feel we can move on without him. IMO if he dose not show for camp then he will be way behind everyone else and should be benched till he caches up. Teams dont have to have superstars to win just good players that work together well and I think Meeks will have that.

      The Carolina Huddle

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Been here since middle school right when it started around 2003 after the charlotte.com one. Living outside of Carolina it was tough to find good Panthers content, news or analysis. And no one to talk to about it. This place gave me a lot though I don’t often post. In the later days, I particularly Loved PhillyB’s write ups. They were fire. Too bad I go let it go. I appreciate the hell out of @MHS831 @TheSpecialJuan @Jackie Lee and others who have been posting great content and keeping this place worth coming back to. Particularly during the offseason. Appreciate y’all!

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      Nice explanation, but I was just messing with you. Thought that would be obvious. I dont have the energy to keep on trolling. Last season I compared our situation with Bryce as a potential Alex Smith, but what we should be looking for is our version of Mahomes. Some people will read that as one sentence, to me that single sentence is equivalent to a half A4 explanationf of the teams pathway forward.

      I dont know how much of his salary would come across and how much a trade would cost but I feel Kmet would be the sort of TE Canales and Morgan would like
