Inroducing Patrick Peterson, CB LSU


MHS831

Recommended Posts

Luck is out of the picture. Take a look at this consolation prize. (I hate to say this: If he comes out)

http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?id=5966027

222 lbs, runs a 4.45 40, 6'1" and the best cover corner in the draft.

Probably the BPA and he is at a need position. And he returns punts/kicks.

2010 SEC defensive player of the year.

2010 SEC Special teams player of the year.

Just curious what is the serious risk you speak of? The guy is a solid player.

The risk of getting him hurt.

Too much money would be invested in him for him to go out there and pull a hammy returning a kick, or worse.

The same reason Gamble stopped returning punts, the dude was too valuable to the team.

Fairley, Peterson, A.J. Green, etc. etc. etc. These guys are all really nice players but not someone that a team should use a number 1 pick on. They are more like 5-15 talent. Once Luck went back to school this really became a meaningless top pick.

Until we start getting some pressure on the QB it won't matter who our CB's are. When you play in the NFC South against QB's like Brees, Ryan and Freeman you have to attack them or they will attack us (Like they did this year). That is why I say we should draft Nick Fairley.

Yea i agree on that, I thought you had other worries. I don't think our coach would be that free with Peterson.

    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.      
    • I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
