    Schefter tells D&C that Julius Peppers will NOT be a Patriot next year

    julius peppers found at 1:03, 2:52, 4:02

    all they want you and we go to bed rest the morning. Julius Peppers will not be an -- Patriots -- And it will happen for all the reasons that you mentioned. Partly because of the pending contract situations of those other Patriot players partly because. New England would have to invest enormous sum of money in Julius Peppers . Part because it would take like habitation because of that I know the word on the street is let him go this second round pick that. Think that they got from Matt Cassel the 34 overall selection in -- that would seem to make sense but. There a couple of technicalities to point out first and foremost. The Carolina Panthers. Right now are not allowed. To trade Julius Peppers because he hit -- this franchise tender. When Matt Cassell signed his franchise tender. That gave the Patriots the right. To trade
    enormous sum of money that you're going to have to invest in Julius Peppers for starters you're going to talk about a deal that. Basically changes the dynamics of the salary short short in the locker room. When you've got pending deals coming up with Richard Seymour and Vince Wilfork. You're talking about a deal that. I think Woodson Julius Peppers . Is a great player but when he talked people -- believe -- he flashes it is always come through when it matters
    How assure you that Julius Peppers is not going to play the Patriots next year. 99 point 9% short while while.

Just start us off -- Springfield. Payout on it adds up to undermine that I want to tell you right that you don't want are on any all basically wet spot for the first -- a Jerry maybe do. I don't wanna Jamison and I outlet and Olympic I don't mind -- that Sosa and it's my shows on the set the agenda here. Okay and then they -- now he doesn't care other kids. Right like null and says well. -- what I send now I and I just assume that the only -- of themselves and couldn't careless about his accusers. And Eileen was grandkids are his teammates his neighbors -- friends I mean why is any indication he cares about anyone but himself. I mean I've but it stayed out with back daddy does that. Jeff do you think if he he cares about his teammates. I think for the most part because he goes out there it's every day doesn't. Now he doesn't -- hours ago. Yeah a when he plays all he had no we've narrowed it down the days that he decided to play. Decides to -- the -- the batter -- would you what about those days. I think that's a lot more possible based on the dog you know the oldest -- Seattle in the person -- job at Chamberlain don't you. Even every owner on the team came out -- that the most ridiculous.

What I -- say without many having to sit down wildcat strike. They've -- this is asked for seven and -- out if you don't -- out like a petulant during oral. Okay. -- that's okay with that that's -- sensibilities are not our. Jeff -- it yesterday or her -- through a little bit more -- club house politics and all this thing works. They ask or oversized what we think about minis department and whether it affected his teammates and whether it made it difficult easier had no affected the Red Sox clubhouse. Advertisers said. When you're off the field problems contracts dispute that management. Stay off the field it's not a problem people out there about that because every player at some point in their career has those problems but wouldn't you bring him in the clubhouse when your name is in the line -- an hour before the game. -- yourself Ottawa lineup win your problems and and your issues -- management starts to affect your teammates and how they prepare and how they know their name is -- or not in the lineup. That's what they start -- unless they don't like news honestly things in the ago.

Now I totally agree that went to either although without when he -- he doesn't like. All say it's he's not awful what this -- that you're not the reason they're losing game Jacoby out Barry Jason -- and we read in the game.

we document of that. This -- like.

But that's a lot more important than what thought I was -- Do you think causing them to gain any event the reason they're not hurt like.

I want to Canada's chance to beat Joba Chamberlain of that one nothing game that many an -- to sit down a job might -- who was been raking since the all star game. Help that cause out a little bit the first -- Yankees. All right -- opposed to lose a playoff spot by a game. Does that make any difference to you --

Not not really has. It's called the other -- Jason Varitek were doing their job that what it about a.

Net CNN defense and he sat still. Thank huge audience well I think I don't think the man general manager spending a lot of time this week. Fielding calls in and talking trade with Jacoby Ellsbury or Jason Varitek. He is preoccupied. With his self absorbed left fielder who for some. Mysterious reason thinks he knew he wants out of Boston now not not at the end of the year now. So even though they like him like the key men in the cleanup spot. Him as a that's what would they prefer Regis show those clay kittens and Manny all this is the lead to Peter Gammons column bases every one in the clubhouse that beat the Red Sox clubhouse knows the names Joba Chamberlain. Felix Hernandez ends involved as Justin Verlander pitches that Manny Ramirez didn't feel quite right to face. -- pitches and yet you mears didn't feel quite right to face. We talked in the players in the club loves Michael Barrett picket -- and then Ortiz they know that these dogs it's that against. Particularly. Tough right yeah. That's when the eighties -- at the boys and especially when he disappointment -- in Boston joked that morning.
