Peppers contract Situation Discussion Thread (Dpanthers started it (^-^))

[Kevin Greene]

So is this the official, official Pep thread now?

[Squirrel]

Yep lol

[scpanther22]

Peppers ain't going to sign his tender.

Unlikely we sign him long term.

On the bright side:

That saves us 22 million next year.

That's 4 or 5 top quality free agents.

Now, if someone else signs him long term, do we get any compensatory action in the draft?

I think we would get a 3rd next year..But thats nothing compared to a 1st round pick and choosing the team peppers goes too

[bigdog_10_2002]

not overly concerned about this.

He had a good year this year, but has been a model for inconsistency.

I've liked the progression i've seen out of C. Johnson, and think we can add some key pieces (WR, CB, DT) with the money we would tie up in Peppers.

Not to mention get Thomas Davis his new contract

[Kurb]

Yep lol

:sifone:

[Butterflyj30]

I will be very upset if the panthers don't attempt to sign Pep to a long term deal

[Fiz]

There is no salary FLOOR this year either. Letting Peppers walk is part of the business equation. Lower payroll equals more profit.

i fuging hate poo like this

Schefter tweeted and said the three most likely Peppers destinations are Atlanta, New England, and Baltimore.

This is Hurney's + Front Offices' faults respectively.

Peppers was just trying to get his, and the Panthers fell victim because they know they have no other player like Peppers on this roster.

Do you believe the Patriots would let Peppers hold them in cap hell? I think not.

The Patriots would:

a. have not signed Peppers to a contract that gave them no leverage to

trade him

b. traded his ass at 30 years old when he started demanding more

money just like they did Seymour.

How do any of you know it's not Richardson that's grown sick of Peppers.

Unrequited love is hard to get over, particularly a very rich man's unrequited love for a player he offered to make the highest paid defensive player in 2008 and that player said, 'thanks but no thanks'.

The result of tagging Peppers for one year resulted in Delhomme's bonus money.

IMHO, as said in the other thread, good luck Julius, it's time for both parties to move on.

Pep DID go down to ATL on the 22nd.

he doesn't have the nfl feeding him info since he went to ESPN. he's basically as reliable as mort.
