Peppers signs with the Bears (updated - again)

Smoot,

What will we do about the safety position? I am really interested to see what comes out of Ashburn and what goes in. Is there truth to the Landry leaving rumors?

Remember I said it Kyle Van Donbosh to the skins....Not peppers

I suspect thought that if things go as they hope there will probably be more big names going out than coming in

Does this mean we plan on cutting several big name guys or hoping we can trade them?

Assuming we switch to a 3-4 and Shanahan doesn't like Campbell, i'd love to see:

"Big Name" Signings

Karlos Dansby
Dunta Robinson
Darren Sproels
Kevin Walter


"Big Name" Cuts

Clinton Portis
Randy Thomas
Randel El
Rock Cartwright
Todd Collins
Fred Smoot
Cornelius Griffin
Reynaldo Wynn


Traded*

Laron Landry - 3rd and 4th Round Picks
Santana Moss - 3rd Round Pick
Jason Campbell - 3rd and 4th Round Picks
Andre Carter - 4th Round Pick
Carlos Rogers - 2nd Round Pick
Rocky McIntosh - 4th Round Pick


*I would accept young, promising, zoneblocking offensive linemen in place of draft picks.

I dont see where people keep saying Peppers was doubled all year. Trust me dude, he was not. The last two seasons all people did around here is bitch about Peppers and why he couldn't get past the single lineman, or TE. he was not doubled near as much as people are saying. Carolina is actually really really really glad to see him go. They are tired of his attitude, his so/so play, and overall seemingly lack of interest. He wasn't a leader. Hell he was even called out in the locker room/radio show by a second year LB....Jon Beason. Who by the way is the next Ray Lewis. This guy is a monster, but I digress... Beason called out peppers and said he needed to play 100% all the time and stop being lazy. That is from a second year guy!! Beason is the leader of the D. What does that say about Peppers??

Great post 56, st. from Charlotte! Always good to get the local view.

Peppers is like Haynesworth at a different position. I believe he & AH were on a dubious top 10 nfl diva list that came out this past year (fox sports or cbs I believe). He can dominate but isn't an every down guy & even worse, it seems like he doesn't give what AH does on each play.

Please Bruce Allen & Shanny, if the Danny wants this guy waive the biggest red (not burgundy) flags you have!

Does this mean we plan on cutting several big name guys or hoping we can trade them?

My question exactly. Allen has a history of cutting old, expensive vets.

Honestly I have no idea what we'll do. I think Landry is on the block, well I know he is actually. But as I understand it we're not so much actively shopping him as we are putting him out there to see if we're blown away by an offer

I could only hope...and honestly we should....the reason: WE HAVE NEVER WON ANYTHING WITH THOSE GUYS...

If we really want a new start, it starts with up top and goes all the way down. So we taken care of the top, Danny Boy has step aside, New coaches, FO guys....so it would make complete sense to me to continue and we see alot of new faces on the field.

I agree 100% with you Chico. It would seem logical that Friday could be a day of older Redskins getting their walking papers.

ARE, Thomas, Rock, Possibly Ladell, just to name a few that come to my mind.

Peppers is kind of a waste of money. I agree dansby is the way to if we are signing a lb

off topic but my boy randy is coming back and we will get another year or two out of him. how he fits into shanny scheme is to be seen but i look forward to a healthy randy thomas.
