papazoid Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 Aaron Schoebel $8.6 mil Chris Kelsay $5.6 mil Ryan Denney $3.2 mil TOTAL $17.4 mil Julius Peppers $ 16.7 mil franchise tag. Give julius the same 7yr $100 mil deal Wash gave Haynesworth..... the way that contract was structured Albert will only see the first 4 years for $48 mil total.
Fingon Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 Yes, because we can magically acquire Julius Peppers, then make those player's salaries disappear.
Thoner7 Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 Works for me, although I would keep Denney because we need some more DE's than just Maybin Peppers and Ellis. Maybe a 2nd or 3rd rd pick in 2010 plus Schoebel for Peppers? Just cut Kelsay. Panthers wont do it but I like to dream

It's amazing how much people overrate Peppers. He had 2.5 sacks 2 seasons ago. In their 7 full season healthy, Schobel averages about 10 sacks a season, same as Julius. Their defense has only been slightly better than ours and Peppers has had way more d-line help. People underrate Schobel here & overrate Peppers.

billybob Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 I think we are about 13mil under the cap before signing the rookies - I'm not sure how much cap we get back for letting Kelsay go maybe most of the 5.6 mil- but Peppers has control of any trade because he can refuse to do a new long term deal and no can afford a 16.7 mil cap hit- With a deal similar to Haynesworth the cap hit would be 7-8 mil-. Personally I'd love the deal because Peppers can play either end position so he could play with Schobel and Maybin, I think the asking price would be a 1 and a 3 at least.
