should we put jordan peterson at saftey ?

[pearland aggie93]

or linebacker becasue he's physical and can cover the running backs and all of that.

Not big enough to play LB... especially in the 4-2-5... he would get killed against the run.... in passing situations, an extra DB at LB would be nice, but that's no different from running a DIME defense or 3-3-5 defense....

[pearland aggie93]

yah well he could be a slot corner or his he one already?

Hasn't been determined yet... Arkieth & Jordan seem to be locked in a battle for a spot at CB oposite of Gorrer....

I expect them both to see time at CB... but Arkieth could very easily wind up seeing 60% to 65% of the plays from what I have read/heard...

Personally I think Arkeith & Gorrer will be the starters & JP will see time as a back up & but could/should see time as a Safety (IMO)...

I like Peterson in a role like Ray Mickens had with the Jets. He could be an extra DB (dime in our case), play all 5 standard db spots as needed (the ulitmate utility guy) and be the first back up off the bench at the two true safety positions if that became his position.

He's a physical specimen in terms of pure athletic ability but may be a tad stiff in the hips to play on an island at cb in the big xii. He's super fast one he swivels and running side to side etc, but he gets taken to school when his hips come into play.

I like his instincts and gambling attitude though and think there should be a place in the rotation for him simply because of his motor.

He's like Obizor in that way I think. Maybe he doesn't start but his presence causes others to work harder and he will always make plays...

He had a pretty good one against Missou.

[Burnetaggie99]

I think he can play either FS or CB just depends if A. Brown beats out Gorrer. Right now I see Brown and Him starting at CB with Gorrer playing alot.

Funny... I mentioned Peterson playing LB'er on texags and got mega flamed for it

Anyways, I could see Pete playing Safety or WHIP, so yes....

Key part of that statement...

You're probably saying that sarcastically because he played QB in HS?

He was a pretty good QB too... but mostly with his legs:o
