peppers expected to go to chicago

Bears are hilarious. They can't move the ball at all, and Cutler's a turnover machine because they have no receivers so they take more defense.

Peter King tweet:Hear 'Skins GM Bruce Allen is riding herd on building to skip biggest FA names, clean house, and win secondary FA battles.

Kudos to Peppers agent for using the Commanders name to get a bigger contract for his client

Dallas and Washington are always linked to players.

Actually I think Jerry works better with no salary cap. That is the last time we won it all. :(

I hope I wake up and see that we signed Peppers and Rolle. :laugh2:

We were just linked to the whole Cromartie thing, forcing the Joneses to refute rumors that we were trading Tashard Choice.

Last year, a lot of the more prominent free agents were linked to Dallas, as is the case every year. Every player wants to be a part of the greatest franchise in the league.

From Peter King's Twitter

Twitter said:
Commanders GM Bruce Allen is reportedly planning to avoid the biggest free agent names, taking the team out of the running for Karlos Dansby and Julius Peppers.Peppers will land in Chicago, and Dansby is almost certain to sign with the Dolphins. Allen is selling the Commanders on "cleaning up their own house" and making an impact at the second level of free agency. Though we imagine that didn't go over well with star-struck owner Daniel Snyder, it's a smart strategy for rebuilding a roster riddled with holes.Source: Peter King on TwitterRelated: Julius Peppers, Commanders

I think we might have gone after Peppers had Anthony Spencer not played his butt off this year. He openly talked about wanting to play in Dallas.

Dansby is a great player but we seem happy with Brooking and James for now.

Rolle made the most sense for us and for all we know Jerry reached out to him. I wouldn't want him at what some are reporting he will get.

It's clear, at least to me, that we are done with the headliner signings. That means those of you hoping Jerry is going to bring in Rolle or Peppers, or Boldin, or whomever is going to be disappointed.

We're taking an opportunistic approach much like last year and will only bring in a guy that is a good fit AND wants to play to win. We will not be bringing in guys looking to get a huge payday. If that was your hopes for the free agency period, the next week is going to be dreadful for you. Sorry.

I used to be one of these guys, I have matured over time..I definitely prefer this approach
