Pep doesn't belong on that kind of list.......

you can question his effort but that doesn't make him a diva. He keeps his mouth shut, is quiet, hates attention, and has been a good teammates........and that doesn't make him a diva. Speaking out one time that you would like a new job after your contract is up isn't diva like either.

I'll agree with that.

Congratulations Peppers, you've earned it.

yeah, what a jerk. He has been such a diva with his constant talk in the media and his complaining all last season......oh wait, he didn't do any of that. Peppers worked for Carolina and fulfilled his obligation.....he has EVERY right to want to leave if he wants. He doesn't deserve to be accused as a diva or troublemaker.

Name one elite player in recent years that wanted out and made less noise about it?

how would you argue he made less noise. Peppers has spoken to the media or through his agent how many times about it?

After being franchised Allen just put in a formal trade request. Peppers was in the media all the way up to the Pro Bowl saying he wanted out and continued until a few weeks before the draft. I'm not saying Peppers is a diva but he's going about this the wrong way.

Not my fight at all and no offense meant, but how can Peppers be at fault for the media making a fuss? He held one press conference, his agent who he follows like a blind puppy spoke a couple of times and the press went nuts. If you're angry and felt he owed you something, well I can't help that, but he didn't make a scene, the press did...

The media didn't make him say what he did before the pro bowl, or during the pro bow, or the comments he made through Carey before and after being franchised. The press did overreact but I felt Peppers has handled this situation all wrong. I'm not in support of the article at all, I'm not sure if there is some confusion on that.

      Hubbard says he might have rushed back

      I agree it is more about the OL. If you happen to have a world beater with a great OL then that’s better obviously but you don’t need to have that.  Capable and durable guys that can get to the second level with good blocking can be plenty.

      I think Gibbs is special, but you’re right, some of the top investments have proven to not be much different than some 2nds and 3rds. Taylor for example is on an MVP level season. James Cook is doing better than Breece Hall for example. Raiders weren’t in a good spot to draft Jeanty. Same with the Falcons/Bijan.  You gotta swing at the right time — the investment shouldn’t come too early. You almost have to stumble into a guy mid to late rounds while building or find that guy to put you over the top when the team is finally well rounded.

      Like I said in another post yesterday, the handling of the offensive line by Fitterer and mostly Morgan has been crazy. We've spent way too much money(Lewis and Hunt) to keep Bryce upright instead of using our picks in the 2nd round on JPJ and Frazier. Could have kept an injured Corbett at guard, Brady at swing, and still taken Maye as a backup, sorry Zavala. We wouldn't have taken XL, but XL hasn't been as advertised anyway, and Brooks hasn't contributed anything. Moton's extension with it's signing bonus made him uncutable. Icky's contract was due at the same time Bryce's 3rd year ended, and we all know it's extension or 5th year, and if we're going to do a 5th year, he's going to want the extension.  To me the whole thing is just ridiculous. Right now, depending on if Tepper decides to keep Bryce, it feels like we're going to have to choose between Icky and a Bryce extension. Maybe he plays on the 5th year, but I think he'll want the big money guarantee.  JMO, but if you took a look at how the contracts could potentially fall, the writing was on the wall that this could be a cash flow nightmare. Too many contract guarantees, not enough rookie contracts to offset the upcoming paydays.
