According to rotowire ( <a href="http://www.rotowire.com/football/player.htm?id=2528" target="_blank">http://www.rotowire.com/football/player.htm?id=2528</a> ) Peppers played a total of 809 snaps last season (724 on D, 85 on STs) and 842 (785 and 57) in 2012. My guess is he’ll play about 30-35 snaps/game this season (and none on STs) to keep him fresh. If true, that will mean he’ll spend about one-half of defensive snaps on the sideline. So while he may play the elephant position, my guess is that’s not the only position he’ll play. That’s why I think we’ll see much more variation in scheme and personnel this season.</p></blockquote><p></p>
