Greg Hardy> Julius Peppers (right now)


Awesomeness!!

Recommended Posts

As an SEC fan, maybe its just my..bias towards SEC players, but Greg Hardy was the steal of the draft. If you've ever seen an Ole Miss game (you probably haven't) Hardy plays every since play 100% He faced doubles all the time and still has an impact on a lot of plays. Julius Peppers is done. He is paid up, and doesn't care anymore. Hardy will have 7 sacks this year. Write it down.

I think he was a steal, but he has the exact same rep Peppers has.....doesn't show up every down nor is he as freakishly talented.

Totally agree! I am recent Ole Miss alum and have watched Hardy's career closely over the years. The guy is an AMAZING athlete, and when healthy, was the best pass rusher in the SEC, I'm totally serious. One of the most common things I heard from people about him was that "this guy doesn't even work and he is this good." If the Panthers coaches can motivate him to work like any average NFL DE, then we will have ourselves a more than adequate Peppers replacement. I think this is a great place for him to mature. We have great defensive coaches and great leaders on the defense for him to learn from. Get him into an NFL caliber conditioning program and he will have no problems staying healthy!

    • Nfl leaders don't look at the population of just the city itself.  Charlotte has three of the top fifty combined statistical areas within a 1 to 1.5 hour drive.  Charlotte, Greensboro/WS/High Point, and Greenville Spartanburg.  Those three statistical areas include nearly 7 million people.  Other than Raleigh, the only one in the top fifty within an hour and half of raleigh is Greensboro.  So only about 4-5 million people.  Charlotte has many more people to draw from.   Also, many of the surrounding communities for Raleigh are not native born.  If memory serves, many still refer to Cary as Containment area for relocated Yankees.  One of the reasons the Canes do so well is a significant portion of the population are people who moved from Northern Areas.  Would that population translate into support for a NFL team?  Hard to say, but I see a tremendous amount of Giants/Jets jerseys in the triangle when I forced to endure the crazy traffic on 40/85.
