Rumors are flying that the New England Patriots could make a run at Panthers DE/OLB Julius Peppers since the Patriots have extra cap space by dealing QB Matt Cassel to the Chiefs

 

And they have the extra pick to deal. Crap. We already went 0-6 against the division, and now each team except us is getting better.

 

Carolina will undoubtedley want a lot for him. I'm betting it's something like two 1sts.

Doesnt effect us the FO philosophy is that we have already conceded the division to them. We are hoping for the wild card entrance. But dont expect to go far especially if their there.

A lot of teams are interested in Peppers. All they have to do is give-up a 1st rounder and pay Peppers $14+M a year and he's theirs.

 

But Peppers said that if he remains in Carolina, he won't be a distraction. So the Panthers have all the leverage here.

Is there a De in the draft better than Peppers? NO . This is the question you have to ask. Give a boat load of money to someone who has proven nothing. That `s why the Pat`s keep picking up Vets with a few yrs left . There is always another one a few yrs down the line again when there guy is done. And they always have cap money. Throw in a couple draft picks . There you go. It seems to work.

It's not that simple. After what Haynesworth got, Peppers will want similar money. The Patriots don't like to pay that much for players.

What would you pay one of the best pass rushers in football ? If they want him bad enough they will get him. Again Buff was not on his short list anyway.

That's because he wants to play OLB in a 3-4 and wants to go to a team that he thinks can win it all.
