J. Peppers

My guess is they'll find a "Colston" on the Dside of the ball instead.

Some unknown who turns out to be a phenom, is what I mean.

I like Pepper. I also like Grant. He helped get us to the big show
regardless if ya'll will admit that. Grant isn't a bad D lineman.
Most teams would drool at the chance for a Grant.

I'm loyal to ya dude. You rock, Charles Grant.

Peppers may be good, but Grant is our TEAM MATE.

Peppers would be a nice addition, but the guy is going to cost some major bucks. Not to mention with the free agency rules for the top teams, no idea if this would really be a possibility.

Let 'em drool enough to take him off our hands. Ever since he signed that fat contract, his body has gotten just as fat. He makes WAY TOO MUCH money for the little production that he's given since given the extension.

I'm with you, man! Either get a young hungry DE or something!

Recently re-visited this site after long absence. I think I posted a new thread about Peppers; will repeat the idea here.
I suggest going after Peppers, offering much less money than any other team might, but offering the position of part time wide receiver. He's as fast as or faster than most receivers. In 2003 or 2004 he played receiver in a few situations, but with a group that seems coached like a sandlot team rather than the way the Saint's coaches go.
Last year at this time he wanted out of Carolina so he could reach his potential; some said this meant a chance to play linebacker in a 3-4. But he might not even realize how he'd jump at the chance to play some offense. He has had like a 97 yd interception return not for a touchdown; no one caught up with him till he gave out and fell at the 1 or 2 yard line. He also once batted a Mike Vick pass as he went by him and continued on with it for a td.
But from my observation, teams run his end successfully.

We dont need Peppers!!!! Let someone else pay that bill!!!! We will be fine through the draft and with others via free agency who wont cost us losing other key players!!!

Dynasties build through the draft and with great coaching.

There's a lot of people saying the Saints will have to pay big bucks for this and that. But I think the Saints are in an enviable position where they offer less than others because of what they are - a BIG SB XLV prospect.
