Opinions wanted on Julius Peppers

You must always consider the cost of acquiring big guns vs little ones. If little does the job then yeah. If not then get the howitzer. You always bring the rain when you can.

Never thought about comparing him to Ellis but certainly could fill the same role. Both are big enough to play DE in the 3-4 and both can drop into coverage or rush from the OLB position. He would be an impact player on this defense. I'm a very firm believer of creating enough impact to finally break a dam. The addition of one player with enough surrounding impact players can effect that.

I said bigger, faster and younger. I should have said bigger, faster, younger and far superior version of Greg Ellis. :laugh2:

But Ellis certainly isn't a slouch himself. I think having Ware, Peppers and Ellis on the field in obvious passing situations would be very hard to play against.

I'm not arguing with you. I do think there is a significant difference in Peppers and Ellis though. But Ellis needs to stay here.
