How is Peppers gonna get traded to KC if he doesn't want to be there and won't sign a long term contract with them?

I very much doubt Peppers would feel he could "fulfill his potential" on a team that is rebuilding from the ground up...

That is excatly my thoughts. But would def be interested in and happy with their 1st, Tambi Halli(sp?) and a 5th or 6th rounder.

With all the needs KC has, if they give up their 1st for Peppers they are idiots. Only a team that's on the brink of a SB championship could justify giving up a 1st round pick for Peppers.

I don't think Sanchez will go in the top 5.

I also don't think he will make it past 15.

The best scenario would be for Denver to take him at 12 and then get Peppers with the 18th and the 84th pick.

The new coach would make a lot of folks forget Cutler if they get Sanchez and Peppers and then get a big DT like Brace in Round 2. They still get the 79th pick in the third.

Broncos need a NT, not a QB. If they are smart, the will use one of their firsts on that position. Both should be used on D, IMO. If they want to trade the other one for Pep, that's fine by me. Perhaps Nolan views Pep's ability as another JP he coached (Julian Peterson).

You probably have much more draft specific knowledge than I , stirs so you could be right. I thought Mayock had pointed out 3 NT type guys who were possible first rounders, but not sure. Either way, no way I take a QB if I am the Broncos. It's nowhere CLOSE to being a priority IMO. I don't get that whole thought process of some people...complain that Cutler couldn't succeed because of his defense, yet as soon as he's gone, getting a QB is the priority? Not with that weaponry already on offense, it isn't.

The Bronco's could go Tyson JAckson @ 12 then trade for Pepps @ 18 and take Brace in the 2nd. Thats a friggin solid day right there.

Jackson, thank you ...that's the other guy. LSU guy, last of the Saban recruits I believe. Definitely a plus for BB acolytes like McD.

I don't think Sanchez belongs in the 1st round, period. But, evidentely the Seahawks absolutely love him to learn behind Hasselbeck. I agree the Bronco's have huge needs along the D-Line in order to transition to the 34 defense, but do not underestimate McDaniel stubborness. He wants to groom a QB, and he is going to draft his QB. Orton is merely a pawn, he is not the future. McDaniels got a 1st round pick for Cutler, and he intends to draft a QB with that pick, and I can tell you, it won't be Freeman.

Whether or not, the Panthers are in a 3-way trade with these 2 teams or not, I am fairly certain the Chiefs will be trading down from #3, and one of those 2 teams mentioned (Jets or Broncos), will take either Stafford or Sanchez.. and from what I am gathering, Sanchez has passed Stafford on most teams' draft boards.

KC will get their draft picks, and they can do whatever they want with them. The only way they trade for Peppers is if the deal is made prior to the draft.

Besides Raji, who will most likely be gone at 12, who is suitable for the 3-4 nose tackle. Brace in the second would have been my bet.

Nothing against Raji, great player, great prospect, but I really think he is gonna struggle with his weight in the NFL. ALA Kris Jenkins.

He is 2-3 inches shorter than Kris(depends on which stat line you read), and weighs almost as much now.

Just a hunch.
