Had 10 interceptions last year.
He is the next Ed Reed as far as ballhawking imo, even more of a ballhawk than Earl Thomas.
If we have a bad year, our secondary fails again, should we draft him, I bet he could start just 1 year into his career, he would be a great tandem with Troy Polamalu.
I am liking me some Peterson next year!
However much you think you know about football, rest assured that Skip Bayless knows more!
