Panthers DE Julius Peppers Set To Become A Free Agent

At a Panthers press conference, GM Marty Hurney announced that defensive end Julius Peppers will not be franchised. Hurney said he told Peppers' agent of the "very difficult" decision Monday. "It's a hard decision; it's one we took time on, but we decided not to put the franchise tag on Peppers," Hurney said. "What we have to do is deal with 53, 60-some players in mind to try to be as competitive as you can each year." Hurney said ongoing CBA issues did "not really" play into the Panthers' decision on Peppers. "We had a lot of conversations last year and we got to a point where we each knew where we were," Hurney said on negotiations with Peppers. "Decisions made on how you can best put your team together to be as competitive as you can, not only in current year, but future. You never want to lose talented players, but you have to look at the big picture, and we have talented young players, as well."

Come on Eagles!!! You just saved up 7.5 Mil in releasing B.Westbrook so they have no excuse in going out there and signing Peppers drafting some young defensive talent and becoming an elite young defense (with the exception of Peppers) to match the youth in the offense
