Ted Thompson might consider doing no. 9 for Peppers straight up. But not with Harris, Brohm, and Popps.

Seriously?
First to give up a premium pick like the #9 for a guy that has never taken a snap in the 3-4 is borderline high risk when compounded with the salary he will command.
Let's dig a little deeper, for as good of a pass rusher Peppers can be, he also can be ran directly at, he isn't as stout at the point of attack as a guy his size should be.
So, if he can't anchor the point he can't be pinned in at Dline.. so now you are risking all that money and the 9th pick in the draft for an experiment of moving him to OLB?
We already have "a can he make the transition question in Kampman".. with this you times it by two...
I don't like bringing Peppers in for just the huge money he would command if he was a FA.. let alone give up a premium pick in the process.
