Player Comparisons!

I know we have a lot of people who want us to get Peterson I thought it was funny to see this comparison.

Patrick Peterson is somewhat of a souped-up Chris Gamble. Really souped-up

Andy Dalton is compared to Rex Grossman

For people who think we need a WR...

Jerrel Jernigan reminds me some of Mario Manningham. Both have strong builds for their size, both have a knack for sneaking underneath and over coverage, and both have nice straight line speed. Jerngan’s better, in my opinion, due to his versatility, big

hands and ability to maintain acceleration when cutting or moving laterally. But both are undersized playmaker types.

Jernigan’s also got a good deal of Percy Harvin to him.

One WR I would love to see us get is this guy, I don't know if we could get him in the 3rd round but I would love to see us get this guy. He has been clutch and might be underrated because of where he is coming from.

I think Titus Young can be sort of what Ted Ginn was supposed to be. He’s not going to be your every-down No. 1 receiver, but he can line up in the slot and stretch the field vertically. He has strong hands and the ability to contribute in more than one way

Julio Jones flashes some Sidney Rice. Although, lately, that’s almost a knock on Jones. Both are strong players who can win jump balls, but every now and then disappear whether by injury or great defensive play. Still, when they get going, they’re tough to stop and they can handle the duties of the No. 1 spot. Of course, Jones is going to be taken a lot higher than Rice, and that’s deserved.

While I don't believe we need a DE we still have people who think we need to get Bowers. I personally don't think he will be a bust like Gaines was but history does seem to repeat itself and I don't think he is even close to be worth a #1 pick

Da’Quan Bowers wears the same uniform the late Gaines Adams once donned, which makes it easy to compare the two top-five defensive ends. Though, Bowers is a better player who moves laterally with less stiffness and a stronger set of instincts. Honestly.

And of course there are Andrew Luck Comparisons and yes they mention him being compared to Peyton Manning but they also say that Matt Ryan is a more realistic comparison. I wouldn't mind having a player like Ryan who in my opinion is going to be the top QB in the NFL in a few years.

I don't think Bowers is as athletic as Peppers. Peppers also has the talent to get a lot of passes defended and interceptions, something I don't think Bowers is capable of. I like some of your comparisons. I don't think Randy Moss is a good comparison to any player because of his issues off the field and recently teams have found many ways to shut him down.

From a physical standpoint its a great comparison. Moss's effort is what has been lacking lately not his talent when he comes to play he is uncover-able.

LOL comparing Peterson to Gamble is a joke. Has anyone at that site watched Gamble play....he's soft as poo.....the comparison to Revis or Aso is much better. Peterson is a monster at corner, he initiates contact at the LOS to jam a receiver, has excellent footwork and has incredible speed for his size. He's also built like a safety and can hit with the best of them......

I wouldn't deem anyone a monster before they get on a NFL field. It's his size, style, and press ability they are comparing, not how good he's going to be
