He said on WFNZ the other day that he's taking a break before OTA's start up, and he's tired of talking about Julius Peppers.

don't blame him.

there really isn't much to talk about right now if you aren't going to talk about peppers and even then there isn't much to talk about.

things will pick up soon enough.

Gantt's job, right now, is to talk about Julius Peppers and find out as much as possible about what's really keeping Peppers from wanting to be a part of this team. That situation is the elephant in the room right now and if Gantt finds this tiring, maybe he should so something else.

I'm not tired of this. I want to know as much as possible and I want as much information from the beat reporters. If I were Gantt's editor and I heard that he said he was tired of covering the biggest Panthers story right now, I'd find someone new to cover the beat and fire Gantt.

And newspaper companies wonder why they are losing half their revenue.

so gantt is supposed to stalk peppers and force him to sit down and talk about something that he knows isn't prudent to do right now?

silly.

it isn't good business to be talking about this stuff while it is all going on. peppers nor anyone else involved in the decision making is going to talk to anyone.

From what I understand, Peppers will not answer any questions or take any calls, instead referring all of them to Carey. And as of around the draft, Carey was not returning any phone calls.

So that is that for now.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies
