I wouldn't mind a peppers then butt 2017
Peppers might leave early, but I think he stays through 2018. While he has obvious talent, I think he could benefit from staying till 2018, and Harbaugh Effect seems to help guys decide to stay instead of going NFL. Wishful thinking perhaps, I just think he still has a much higher ceiling than he has shown. Deciding factors are potential win of NC in 2016/17 and projected draft position.
