Both Julius Peppers and Ryan Sims were drafted in the Top 6 in the 2002 NFL Draft today. Julius Peppers was selected 2nd by the Carolina Panthers. Later, Kansas City got the 6th pick from Dallas and choose another one of our Tar Heels, Ryan Sims.

Great job guys, thanks for everything, keep working hard, and good luck with your pro careers!

Who would've thought that this was going to happen at the start of last season? Everyone knew that Peppers had the potential, but I doubt anyone was picking Sims among the top ten in the draft.

Both of these guys will have great NFL careers and will make UNC proud! Go Heels!

Oh, and hoops13: It's Tar Heels! Two words! "Tarheels" are people from the state of NC. "Tar Heels" are people from UNC!
