In space no one can hear Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 The Panthers placed the franchise tag on Julius Peppers. With T Jordan Gross signing a six-year deal Thursday, the Panthers are able to keep their best two young talents. For now. Peppers is due $17 million and wants out, so the Panthers are expected to seek a trade. He should attract a Jared Allen-like package as the Draft nears, but Carolina should exhaust all chances to keep him. Ultimately, it's their call despite his tough talk.

Ramius Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Relating to the Bills, OT Gross' contract pays him 30 million dollars over the first 3 years of his new deal. Looks like that's what we'll have to pay Peters. http://blogs.nfl.com/2009/02/19/panthers-g...-six-year-deal/ EDIT: it was a 6 year deal worth about 60 million. get ready to fork over that cash for peters.
