The kid was a late first-rounder... and he fucked that into a 3rd-4th round pick. No wonder he hired some help to edit his pre-draft interview. No one is taking this fucked up kid in the first 2 rounds. Not even the Browns.
It's not like this kid is a Earl Thomas where they are gonna snag him first round. The kid is a flier... Yeah he's 'edgy' which the Hawks seem to like? Kidding me? Even Pete wasnt FS enough to draft taylor mays instead of Thomas. Draft the edgy kids with talent in the 4th and 5th rounds. Let the browns or bengals fuck with this kid in the 3rd round.
Probably a 4th rounder at best. 5th round would be a nice fit, if he blows up you win, if he continues to be an asshole, then it didn't cost too much. Let him earn his way back to respect and the money.

I've said second the #ICantBreathe incidence came out. If he keeps this up, I could easily see him sneaking back into the late first. No way he falls past the second unless something else happens or he's just terribly unconvincing.
Here below is a top tier talent who fucked himself and went 3rd round. National exposure playing for a top tier team... You really think peters who fucked himself for a NW school who is known for going to kraft mac n cheese bowls is gonna get more exposure than this guy and get drafted higher?
"Once considered a Heisman Trophy front-runner, Mathieu didn't play last season after Tigers coach Les Miles kicked him off the team for failing multiple drug tests."
I agree a hot head is different than some top tier fucker who gets kicked off for drugs, rape, bong rips, speeding on I5, etc.
The point is he was kicked off a team from a very respectable head coach in Petersen who had enough. Fuck, Petersen had enough of him after coaching him during the (pre) season.. the fuck never made the pac12 season. Fuck him, go play for sark. He could have been the mentor for a young secondary and he went the other way. You really want to burn a 1st or 2nd round pick with that background? I guarantee you 28 NFL teams dont.
He seemed like a top corner from anyone you talk to in the northwest going into the year. Nat'l media had him top 10 secondary and climbing. He was great when he played. Too bad he played a 1/3 of the season before being told to sell his fucking couch. Dude is 3rd/4th round flier if he is fucking lucky and will probably play for a shit ass organization where he will fade out in 3 years.
His whole interview was bullshit. Just some troubled fuck who hired someone to write his script. Classic Sark recruit and classic Sark-type interview. Sark probably paid his publicist to write Peter's bullshit sob story. 1st-2nd round my ass. Jesus.
It could all be bullshit. But taking responsibility for your own shitty actions bullshit > blaming everyone else for your shitty actions bullshit. I was not expecting him to own it like that. It makes me a lot more optimistic about his NFL future. If the Hawks took him at #31 now I wouldn't at all be upset about it. Dude can flat out ball.
Agree.
I bet he'll be available if they want him at #31. Owning his fuckups is going to help him, but it's not going to restore the status he would have had as a model citizen. It seems like NFL GMs love his kind of story. The ones who want him will whisper out loud about the uncoachable reputation, take a gamble and grab someone else they want in that round, and gamble that others will do the same. It's a circle that feeds itself. I wouldn't be surprised to see him fall several rounds in spite of saying all the right things.

If NFL GMs think they can keep his nose clean. They'll draft him. He's good. But He has a risk. I'd about bet the house he won't go before pick 70. He's still a potential guy
A lot of fucktardedness just like every other thread. Anyone with half a brain knew Peters was twice he corner Trufant was and a prototypical shut down corner. He was the top corner in the draft by far.
I think the lesson is that when you don't know your fucking ass from a hole in the ground, it's best not to go up on the roof and shout it out for everyone to hear.

Hard to pick just one poast to re-bump from this most epic of threads, but this one might be my favorite.

Don't try taking people to task for being wrong on everything in real life though. I tried and ended up with no friends (thus I'm here).
