" We've kind of had inside Iran insider crime here on Sports Radio yesterday afternoon. -- Ritchie of nfl.com. Came on the big show and said that the Patriots were pursuing a trade. For Julius Peppers of Carolina Panthers this morning Adam chapter of the NFL network. Also part of nfl.com. Came on the radio station and said there is a 99 point 9% chance. Peppers would not be a member of the Patriots in the upcoming year. Joining us on the line right now is a guy who covers the Carolina Panthers and -- at the opportunity. Seed Julius Peppers play on a consistent basis. Charles Chandler of the Charlotte observer is joining us on the AT&T hotline. AT&T your world delivered Charles it's -- Michael in Boston how aria. You gotta do what. -- great whereas now we're curious from your perspective looking at this from more of an insider's perspective than we have. Who's going to be right this whole thing Adam chapter who says absolutely no way this happens or -- who says I think that's what the work --"

" Well all the other friends are well of respect or. Am I say from my perspective. I would lean more toward. Adams perspective only because. I just felt like it well that Detroit we heard yesterday about one Carolina would do they're not going to. Late furious effort or second round that they -- the reality is they don't portray due. Juries Peppers would prefer the place somewhere out. It's not his first choice to what it's also not his 32 or. And out that you realize. That the best pitcher in the go to the game appears she. Would have been that restricted create. It. The battle Jordan Gross on the very -- the Atlantic. Apply their franchise tag of course plot Julius. The bat well they in changed dramatically now the Patriots are there at the -- Philadelphia. Audits and kings that Al and about. Draft ammunition. At least make it interest. But I just just not sure that there's going to be a scenario where that I don't question that the Patriots would like to get a bargain deal. For Julius Peppers that I felt but the Packers which kept understand it's not a deal even like that Matt Cassel -- Where the Patriots appreciate what -- they wanted to. Note how he's come back like it's something. That as much as we can't -- an adult World Series. And it's okay it would there's going to be a disgruntled player player or. What a -- does that ever been any saying in his bat. That would suggest he'd be anything remotely like torture against the epic story yesterday don't quote from a FL source that. Basically suggested that you just wait they'll. 2007 -- it wasn't at -- other monopoly. At all that is the reason it's a mystery why eat quite so what was but I think about it. At the it would help. -- I don't by the notion at all that you're secure our next year is going to be outing in you know you don't look at. It is that the the amount of money -- would -- under the tender for the French what I am like a million dollar a -- Sixteen point 683 million. -- 29 years 8 cannot forward. In a one year deal where he's essentially a contract. He can't afford a -- they predict what says he's approaching thirty for. So I don't think there's been nearly as simple as that they're looking to trade him and you know brought -- out but you know wants. -- I I would put out there about eight. And that lineup or not they go."

" Charles why does Julius Peppers went out of north 1 out of Carolina Panthers."

" Well -- continues to sit the government is answer has left people with a lot of questions he said -- felt like he -- come very close to maximize his potential. Under the current system in place for any -- afloat and moved to a different system. He really and truly doubt play out of lap back and at least four. Yes and what the markets where -- analysts mother's genes -- the Pittsburgh curious is bigger than those guys he's an incredible athlete. I think he would love the opportunity. But yeah. Economic factors. -- is so talented athletic. I think people look at what every and they expect more. And I after awhile you probably -- out an -- in which also -- should be implemented there should be more. -- it -- at -- seven years one place where you're. Very what people expect you to being that you think well I am adamant about some more."

" How would you judge. Peppers football like Q. We've talked about you know what it would take to move from defensive end outside linebacker -- football like Q how would you handle that transition."

" I think just apology the actual topic is working at the I got to orbit that book that is -- I just don't know. It would depend on -- is not talked to some people at the senior bowl -- all that out of Julius Peppers project. Peppery for the and not a real from the Jaguars that he can do that but you gotta since he dropped them a lot of cover like they've transferred that that the traditional. Picture on salt which would be it would drop their Packers -- if you look at more what -- Where they had sent it -- rushed him a lot. But he intimate situation like that where you're the standup. -- and almost in the trials -- can certainly. What it would come -- what stats it's what he's done. Ike is still could do there but they couldn't do it in the Pittsburgh Patrick for."

" I'm surprised that there's not more urgency Charles from the Panthers given that. Pretty much handcuffed. Until Juli is about about financially. Until Julius Peppers. Decides what he's gonna do well. Aren't they are aren't they eager to get this deal done or to get him out of there because. They are they're not players in free agency until they resolve his contract situation."

" What got to understand is they don't is that players. And OS are -- bat -- but they -- like pitching they have they don't say -- are out there remotely like Q is that. Each other almost fourteen many tickets -- cap last. Post brought up 20% there will take that. There's some things that they -- going to be able to do with Jake DelHomme -- cannon eleven they did get checked out. Well your repealed they'll we negotiate. They are not look into the act to create what state they're -- whole -- the it's a draft well if you draft well keep -- players. Such as injuries as part of coal plants so. Just have to realize that is the -- the -- they want to clear money to build it up or what's left out there any is there anything even quotes. There's not there's not in the draft the if you take him away from that the effects of why aren't there or outlets that the I -- there it makes everybody else better. I think the -- even then -- market is that are the people -- grass is. They don't want to lose that much -- it is their -- and you know."

" do something in response that math you're two part question hope that you remember ballparks. And the answer is the second part never give it. One. About the relationship between rappers and John Fox -- defensive coach in two. Would fox ever consider. Switching to a 34 accommodate Julius Peppers. "

" I wouldn't affect you opportunities yeah answer your question that -- without that wouldn't want it posted on it. That. Is -- it back on the last minute. The first part as best as -- so. It's at a off our relationship with job is at best all. I don't. See if you waltz away. Now there's been left and there's as I am curious -- an agent been very careful. Not criticized John Fox is it was appreciated things. Not out coaches. As well play -- a difference is so. You know I would say that if the relationship. It's -- while there it's strangle a little bit -- less what anybody would have to say yes as. I don't think any major ops. It's no definite lemon seven. In terms of the second part of your question and I remember. I kept it. I'm the first all the -- three point -- not where it is not get it or should go all the way. It was York Giants yet Michael Strahan out there. I think -- those at -- lottery. Orbit -- or not it's not what I watched that -- I understand about. And it might be like and the senator -- you know what got. My order that. Is what."

" When last we knew Julius had yet to sign his franchise. Offered paperwork. Has he signed -- to the best of your knowledge and if not -- not."

" Well -- there's no need -- censor hurry to do it. You leave yourself open for Kwame remember it has first preference. Coaching mother's choice the best chance of that -- just wait until that all settle I think probably sat and that would be. -- Want the last thing that happened in oh absolutely if you ask Adam and yeah estimated at 21 and abilities. One in the as. I -- it all now the it's just very different. -- Jurors has made a lot of money Matt got -- on the upper back. Yeah I actually liked that kind of money is outside of course they -- As the difference."

" To the best of your knowledge is this relationship. Gone as far down the road as says what appears to be the case in Denver with Jay Cutler and his new coach Josh mcdaniels or is this one at least salvageable."

" All that's what -- don't know -- there's not been holding meetings between Julius Peppers and job -- smart as that none of these kind of things is not being aware. You know there has been is that it's just been -- say hey I'm really look like the place oil also appreciate him what they've done leaning. He stated his desire to place someone else. Came as close as you can call about where there's a cup revealed and I was saying where they're openly publicly. Speaking against one another and frustrated who are at about the -- Remember that let's bring it is Jason Chicago they'll report a couple of years immediately I want that was you know --"

" Where I -- Charles speaking of quarterbacks. The Carolina Panthers really need one after watching their divisional game against the I against the Cardinals. -- Jake DelHomme as a man always a popular teammate with his guys in the very charismatic. A quarterback -- moxie but do you think they need to upgrade at the quarterback position."

" They need to be so sure to bring hand. And big debate figure that is I think like they sold all Hamels. What you saw that it was worst moment -- a lot. -- Some things but he also got to almost Gypsy. And -- monopoly. That's reflective of what is it. What that yet do though is why not just national they're particularly look without a lot of people want to. It's got a real SJ. And yet they can it's about. That element you know again I think he won that contract and in but I will be surprised if in this draft if they don't -- Maybe bring a quarterback or if somebody. Often and working to develop. What they have right now is Matt -- beyond that the was undrafted and just don't know what he's going to be the -- fans around -- love to see him draft a center pat white west. But that they got to start thinking about who's. Is going to be air but what are your I think patience which -- not."

" Here in Boston we -- Jonathan Papelbon of the Red Sox who very freely will talk about wanting to set the bar. As far as salary is concern for that -- next generation of players coming up behind him he doesn't make any bones about it he's trying to beat. Every record financially Mariano Rivera ever set the you get the sense. That Julius Peppers is looking at the Albert Haynes worth Phelan saying I gotta go north that."

" You know curious as it repeatedly and -- What do you make you want to duck says a lot about money is said that repeatedly. People course I am not -- that people that will column. Yeah of course -- walks to earn back but money does not drive. You gotta make if where every element. That you want to know the number one move. All know that fact and they'll thank you saw the work he's asked -- Beaten somebody else's -- the as well why. In very different individual. Say a whole lot these private -- off. He -- air without it and yes there are to put him in a mall say this is serious he is that unpredictability."

" 85%. Chance in your mind that Julius Peppers does not get traded to the Patriots. Charles we appreciate the time and and the information thank you very much for me -- us."

" Most well I journals next time we talk about have a four part question for. It may. And thank you are only cares. About."

" That is Charles Chandler Charlotte observer joining us on the AT&T hotline. AT&T your world delivered so."
