Peppers is a NO GO.
In his interview last year he didn't want to sign a long term deal with Carolina because although they made him the highest paid defensive player in the league, it was "only slightly". This was after his 2008 2 1/2 sack year. Can you believe the arrogance of that? "ONLY SLIGHTLY"?
I think you're dreaming if you think he plays for short money to prove himself. He's also possibly not that good in our system. Don't forget AD was supposed to be "all that". How'd that work out?
BB screwed up by not developing talent. He's turned up his nose at college LBs, refused to develop any. Well now we have SF washout and useless Burgess (who's a FA, nice rental for a 3rd and 5th).
We do have Crable and I still believe he could be very useful in pass rush situations at least.
Have to have some schemes which make the most of our talent and draftable talent instead of hoping against hope for some magic guy to be able to take over Willie McGinnest's role.
First he has to make the team, then he has to at least be active on game days, then we could start talking about his play. The guy has a loooong way to go and cant be relied on pretty much at all this upcoming season.
