They had them... Should I put these in the carboy or in a bucket and rack the beer on top? I'm normally not a fan of a secondary, but seems like it would be a pain in the arse to get 7+ pounds of peaches out of the tiny neck of a carboy.

I’d put them in the carboy. You may want to cut them up a bit after they thaw before adding to carboy. Utilize your funnel to get them in the neck of the carboy and the back side of a wooden spoon to unclog.
You could also do a bucket but buckets are a perfect vessel to oxidize your beer. Refermentation of the fruit would help to push out some of the O2.

For the blood.orange hefe I did recently, I segmented and frozen the flesh and then fed the segments carefully into a sanitized mesh bag that I had slid into the carboy neck. Yes it was a pain to get the orange out at the end. I had to cut the bag and shake the carboy to get the segments out. On the other hand I think it did make a difference to not have to deal with orange segments blocking up my siphon.
