CHARLOTTE -- Carolina Panthers defensive end Julius Peppers was named to the NFL's All-Decade team, one of the 12 Pro Bowlers named to that squad.

Peppers has 81.0 sacks in eight seasons, all with Carolina.

The entire All-Decade team will be announced during ESPN's pre-Pro Bowl "Sunday NFL Countdown," special at 5:30 p.m.

It should be noted that the votes come from the Pro Football Hall of Fame selection committee. Which is Huge for Pep. he could end up being the Panthers first HOFer.

To bad the Panthers already have a Hall of Famer, REGGIE WHITE...Yea he could have gone in a Packer but in the Hall of Fame he's listed as a Panther..So Pep could be the 2nd DE going in for the Cats

The HOF lists all teams a player has played for. I don't count White as a real official Panther in the HOF.

No actually if you go to the Hall of Fame website, and go to Hall of Famers by team, Reggie WHite is listed as a Panthers HOF. What is so difficult to understand? When Peppers gets in they will say he is the Panthers second Hall of Famer. If you dont consider him one thats fine, but he really is there and theres no way to deny that. Call the Hall of Fame and tell them to remove him from the Panthers than if you feel so strongly about it. Im just stating the fact that the Panthers OFFICIALLY have a Hall of Famer already whether you like it or not..

Actually every player listed has each team they played for.

Case In Point Johnny Unitas is in the HOF as a Colt but is listed on the San Diego List

San Diego Chargers

(Los Angeles Chargers - 1960)

Lance Alworth (1962-1970)

Fred Dean (1975-1981)

Dan Fouts (1973-1987)

Sid Gillman (1960-1969, 1971)

Charlie Joiner (1976-1986)

David (Deacon) Jones (1972-1973)

Larry Little (1967-1968)

John Mackey (1972)

Ron Mix (1960-1969)

Johnny Unitas (1973)

Kellen Winslow (1979-1987)

Reggie White went into the Hall of Fame WITHOUT a team affliation. So techinally you are wrong. Reggie Played for Carolina but is NOT representing Carolina. Currently there are NO PLAYERS in the HOF that are sole affliated with CAROLINA.

If Peppers goes to the HOF and chooses Carolina he will be OUR 1st.

NFL | R. White will enter Hall of Fame with no team affiliation

Tue, 01 Aug 2006 23:36:18 -0700

Tom Silverstein, of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, reports Hall of Fame DL Reggie White will be inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame without a team affiliation. On the stage where induction speeches take place, White's mural will feature a portrait and an action shot. He will wear a Green Bay Packers uniform in one and a Philadelphia Eagles uniform in the either. Hall of Fame vice president of communications Joe Horrigan did not go into details on the layout of the mural, but said the three NFL teams White played for would be represented.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies
