    I think that is right.   Of course, that defense is best when you have someone that could play like a hybrid DB/LB.   Wasn't that what we thought they were going to do with Peppers?  Since that is much of what he did in college?  

    How has that worked out so far?

    Again.. I saw Peppers as a wasted pick.. I saw him as nothing more than a career ST's player... You don't draft special teamers with high picks.. But Sushi had to try and outsmart everyone I guess...

    Well....I suspect that if he was used better, he could perform better....and not be a waste.  That hybrid thing was his calling card....and if in fact it is going to be more in vogue in the NFL...I should hope and think that Peppers could fill that role with aplomb.......and not be a bomb.

    That was actually a Williams (coaches) pick. 

  • I want to see Peppers in the position he's suited for - strong safety - before I write him off as a bust.

    That being said, I do recall referring to him as a "jack of all trades, master of none" type of guy before we drafted him.

    I'm aware of that as well

  • Peppers could be a pro bowler with the patriots.  Trade him for butler.

    Do you really think he could be a Pro Bowler?  What is his average?

    He is going to be in the box this year, where he played at Michigan. I don't know what that means for Derek Kindred Spirits ... Special teams? But we will be drafting a free safety and Peppers will move in to the strong slot, I think that is a given.

    Defensively I would hope free safety and corner are top priorities this offseason
