Do you think we need to franchise Peppers before trading him?

Based on what he's said, I think he's looking for us to engineer a sign-and-trade deal. That would allow us to keep the franchise tag in case things don't go well with Gross.

Is that a possibility?

I hope so. It doesn't appear to be hostile at this point. I expect Julius to handle this with class, as he has since day one. At the end of the day though, his personal wellfare has to be consideration number one. No different than you and I.

I'm not sure, but the way espn had it worded it seemed as if pep was wanting carolina to release him of his contract now.
If we did that we wouldn't get anything in return. If we franchise him, we can trade him where we want (not where he wants) or keep him here. From his POV, if we don't franchise him he can go where he wants, so it's in his interest to agree to a sign-and-trade if he gets to specify the team. Otherwise we could slap the tag on him and ship him off to the Lions for draft picks.

If he does agree to a sign-and-trade, we lose a little leverage in negotiations with the other team, but keep our tag if we need it.

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      Okay, so answer this one then, since you said you can't answer something you don't think will happen...... You have said numerous times in the past that even though you want them, you don't think Deion will allow us to take his son or Hunter. You then taking Ward #1 over T-Mac just because he's the QB?

      Thanks for that sounds very interesting.   I have a scientific mind usually and don’t believe in wide spread conspiracy theories but with the NBA it’s so obvious.  The fuggin rigged draft is something only an idiot wouldn’t see.  But the NBA is 100% about big market money.  It’s not even a real league.  It’s 10 teams that have a shot.

      This response is absolutely and utterly insane, I've literally this same thing out multiple times in previous posts about mock drafts, like a bunch of times. I've never once denied it's a possibility of them going #1, I've just said that I wouldn't take them there. And YET AGAIN, you're proving that you don't believe they are elite QB prospects, you literally just said "first prospects off the board REGARDLESS OF TALENT" It's literally what I've been saying this whole time, these QB's don't have the draft grades to deserve that pick.  They're only being mocked there because mocks are trying to predict the draft, not saying who deserves to be drafted where.   Dude, this is exactly why I question your reading comprehension skills.  You keep trying to say you got me with something, but in those exact posts you're just proving my points, the literal opposite of catching me in some lie or moment of ignorance.
