From what I've read Simmons has first round talent, but due to a video showing him punching a woman multiple times he could slide in the draft similar to Joe Mixon.

There's a massive gulf between the Mixon video and the Simmons video.

Simmons basically got carried away breaking up a fight. I wouldn't have an issue draft Simmons if everything the out talking to coaches, friends, professors, etc. I wouldn't have touched Joe Mixon no matter what.

I will be shocked if Sweat is on the board and we pass him up.

Good to know. It could be a complete non-factor. I've seen mocks with him going anywhere from the top 10 to in the 20s in the first round to the 2nd round.

One, it would be a later round project type pick. Not looking for him to play immediately. Two,  just because we chose the least athletic CB in the draft and tried and failed(so far) doesn’t mean you don’t try again. We could always draft two more box Safeties because they played S in college. That’s the problem now. 

Just watched some tape on Peters. I may have to retract my previous statement on passing on him. While if he stays at corner I think he would be better in man than a zone defense like ours.  But I can see why you were talking about converting him to safety. Good tackler, very long, and can run.  Interested to see how he tests.
