Peppers wants out of Carolina

Panthers could franchise Peppers

ESPN.com news services

Defensive end Julius Peppers let the Carolina Panthers know he is looking for a change of scenery.

"The front office has been informed of my desire to explore opportunities with other NFL teams following the expiration of my contract next month," Peppers said in a statement released by his agent Carl Carey. "At this point in my NFL career, I am seeking new challenges that will allow me to grow, develop and reach my personal potential on the football field.

"I strongly feel that making a move at this time is in my best interest. I appreciate the entire Panthers organization and am thankful for the seven seasons I've spent with the team."

The Panthers would have to pay Peppers, 28, nearly $17 million to franchise him for the 2009 season. Peppers has been in Carolina his entire career, seven seasons.

"Julius is firm in his decision that he needs a change," Carey said. "He feels that he can thrive in another system. While he has been selected to four Pro Bowls and designated as an All-Pro during his career, he feels that he has yet to develop to his full potential. This is the case of a great player who seeks to become an elite one."

Senior NFL analyst Chris Mortensen contributed to this report.

true ..... we will have to appear to be movers and shakers this offseason so FA's will want to come and play here.

getting a respected new head coach will help


bringing in several big name free agents all really early in free agency so that we get the buzz.

Ends can play well into their 30s, he should have 4 or 5 more productive seasons. Or more. It's not like runningback. Strahan, for instance, played 15 years, and had some of his best seasons after the halfway point in his career, including 4 double-digit sack seasons (and another with 9 sacks).

It all depends on how much he wants to play, and how hard he works (neither of which I know...).

Peppers was on the decline until his contract year this year.

Some team is going to overspend on a guy who looks like a Jevon Kearse/Hugh Douglas type DE free agent bust.

This all stems from the gross rookie contracts we have been seeing the last few seasons.

A vet player now is seeing that ist rd picks are making way more than they are without having to prove himself in the league, and the vet thinks hes paid his dues so the good players that are in their 2nd or esp 3rd contracts wanna get the payday they "deserve" so to speak. So once they get paid I think theres a big risk that they kinda kick it back and maybe don't play as hard.

With a new capable coach (hopefully), a new capable GM and a good draft, who's to say the Chiefs can't pull an Atlanta?
