Besides, we paid him 17.5 last year and didnt make the playoffs....so he obviously wasnt that much of an impact player.

I am glad that it is finally over so you will be able to see with your own eyes how valuable this man was to this team. Who at defensive end on the remaining roster will opposing teams have to scheme for? We went through this with Kris Jenkins and you learned nothing. We still haven't found his replacement. I think that a lot of you just wanted Pep gone because you were jealous about how much money he would have received. How come no one questions the amount of money that pro pitchers and quaterbacks receive? Well actually you did when it was Michael Vick.Kennethnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1757788746378060243.post-81770067661147929282010-02-23T20:12:47.999-05:002010-02-23T20:12:47.999-05:00The thing that everybody knows about Peppers is he...The thing that everybody knows about Peppers is he plays when he wants to.I like dude;but he's not worth 20 mil. .

You're probably right, I believe there's a chance we can climb to those heights, even without Peppers. I too, am glad it's over, but I'm certainly not happy about the outcome. In fact, I'm extremely disappointed, especially as a season ticket holder. If someone is going to pay him, which they will, why can't it be us? For once, why can't it be us? I suppose Smith will be next, since he's our only remaining pro bowler.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1757788746378060243.post-22247374072547052822010-02-23T16:50:15.040-05:002010-02-23T16:50:15.040-05:00It wasn't meant to be after seven years togeth...It wasn't meant to be after seven years together when Julius Peppers and the Panthers decided to divorce each other.

However, he needed to learn to play hard every down. Well, he never learned that and while he made highlight reel plays once every 3 or 4 games, he was not what this team needs. The Panthers need someone to play consistently good football.

I am a Panthers fan but Richardson should be ashamed of letting him walk. He was never an off field issue. Never got into any trouble. He came in and did his job and now he doesn't fit the big picture because he wasn't vocal enough? Give me a break. Rucker and Buckner were vocal and mediocre at best.
