Giants may offer Peppers a 100 million dollar contract...

[PhillyB]

Why would you sign someone until they are 37? Isn't that a little old for a DE especially one which wants to play in coverage? Don't care he is gone but everything about Peppers gives me a headache I can't understand it.

most contracts are like that, especially the big ones. 100 mil over five years is a hell of a lot cheaper for teams than, say, 80 mil over three years. there's no way he'd actually finish out every year of the contract.

ny will either make julius cry or make him a better player

but i think it's more likely the city will hurt his feelings. it isn't here like it is in the sticks.

So really, $100M deal over 7 years is $14.28M per year which is close to what we offered him - just not that long.

Oh well.. I wish him luck thats a blessing to make that much money.

It's not the length that is the difference maker, it's the gaurentted money and I haven't yet heard what that was that the Panthers were offering. The Hayneworth deal was for only $40million if I am remembering correctly.

The NY media would tear Julius apart after his first lackluster game.

I love Pep but I don't think he will make it in NY he's a good old country boy and NYC can be very brutal!!

I think that is were Julius should go.

...and just think, when Coughlin is let go, and he will be, the coach to replace him will most like be John Fox. NY has long had an unrequited love affair for their long lost defensive coordinator.

John and Julius, together again....PPPEEERRRRFECT, priceless, in fact.

Oh the irony.

Nice. I hope they do. Should make all of those other Giants players feel real good.
