Julius Peppers could "ruin" Pats plans
Posted Sep 16, 2005
In terms of raw athleticism, there aren’t many players in football that can match Julius Peppers. The Panthers gifted defensive end stands 6-6 and checks in at 283 pounds, but his style screams more basketball power forward than football wide body. That’s mostly because he was a basketball power forward. He played two years at North Carolina for the storied Tar Heels’ program before making the full-time switch to football.
