Where is he this year? He has been one of the very top defensive players in the league, but this awful season has dropped him to a four. He didn't even have an injury excuse.

this guy can score sack and tackle a total FREAK OF NATURE! i believe he is the top 5 ever in his position!

Would probably compare him to Lawrence Taylor or Mike Vick. Maybe not he best at his position but has completely revolutionized it. Because of him everyone will be look for athletes loke him at DE, going for speed over brute strength.

Julius Peppers is the best athlete in the world--not just in football but in all sports. And to you HATER that said he had buck teeth...Julius Peppers is hotter than the HOTTEST!!! Keep on hatin' because the Pep Man is gonna get his regardless. It doesn't matter what you think!

Hasn't really proven himself yet. Great talent, we'll have to wait to see if he becomes a great player. UPDATE: Why does every woman come on here saying he's hot? He looks goofy as hell to me, with his buckteeth and boob-shaped head. Still, he's managed to have another 10+ sack season, but I don't think that's all that impressive when you consider how good everyone on the Panthers line is. He should honestly be getting more sacks than that. Plus, I don't think he's been the best in run support, although he has been improving.

At his position he's one of the best and he is very athletic.He can get the job done especially with the speed he has.He should go to the Pro Bowl every year, even if he is injured he still is better than most of the others.

The new freak of nature in a team league he is the team player. HE works hard and makes evceryone around him better. How do you think Chris Jenkins got to the probowl? By everyone double teaming the freak. The man can't do it all himself. Oh did I mention he is hot?

While he has the talent, he hasn't exactly been playing like a guy who wants to make it back to the pro bowl this year. Not even the best DE on the Panthers this year, much less the NFL. Lack of consistency so far.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh how I love this man

he was the best the panthers had except for muhhamed,

Made me love the Panthers, and football for that matter. Oh yeah, and gorgeous!! GO Carolina!!

A one-of-a-kind player. Will be a force to reckon with in the future. Will only get better.

Freak of nature... he should be way higher on this list
