NFL.com's Bucky Brooks commentary on Marcus Peters

DerekJohnson · January 2015

"Marcus Peters would be the #1 cornerback in this upcoming NFL draft if there hadn't been those concerns after being kicked off the team. Long, rangy, athletic, super-aggressive on the perimeter, can play press, can play off, hunts the ball. This is a guy that is super talented. And I really think that when people dig into his character it won't nearly be as scary as people are making it out to be. Strong personality, very confident kid. Anyone who has been around people from Oakland understands that demeanor. And it shouldn't be an issue as he goes forward [into the NFL]."

-- Bucky Brooks, former NFL scout

Got it, all people from Oakland choke their coaches. #PrayforOakland #OaklandStrong

Bucky Brooks is your source?

Bucky Brooks? Of the Piscataway Brooks?

The NFL finds talent. All his off field stuff does is discount his price. Making him even more attractive

Oh so since he's from Oakland standards need to be lowered.

Got it.

Peters would be a great cheaper alternative for the Seahawks when Maxwell leaves.

Another scout said Peters was the best CB prospect in 14 years. I doubt that is true, but he's a stud.

Bucky Brooks does a great college football podcast with Dan Jeremiah and Matt Money Smith on the NFL network. I'd recommend it. Bucky and Dan played CFB in the south, but live out in LA so it's not a 24/7 SEC suck-off. Good guests as well.

That's what I was listening to this morning and got that quote.

With Carroll coaching him up, he would probably be better than Maxwell right now. If he falls to the bottom of the 1st that would be a steal.

He's not going in the first round. Honey Badger fell to the third round because of weed and some off field stuff. Peters is probably a better prospect, but choking a corch, twice, is going to raise some real red flags. He goes second round at the earliest.

The Hooks are all about trading down anyway, so I could see them trading their first rounder, grabbing an extra pick or two and still snagging Peters in the second. Which would be a steal, for sure. He's got top 10 pick talent.

If Peters is taken in the first round I will gargle your balls in Pioneer Square and give you ten minutes to draw a crowd.

Take all the screenshots you need.

The husky staff denied anything like that ever happened. Even if they are lying, they clearly aren't trying to throw him under the bus. You make the honey badger point and look how productive that motherfucker is. Peters will be forgiven, his talent undeniable, he will go first round.

RaccoonHarry · January 2015

Oakland? So he's fluent in Ebonics. At least he has that going for him...

I wish I had known the Husky staff is denying the rumors before I made the ball gargling offer. Fuck.

I'm guessing you drank yourself through that coaches press conference.

My liver wishes I would change my ways based on your witty retort. I will drink it back into submission soon enough.

The problem here is that you're just assuming the report about his choking his coach (twice) is true. We only have one anonymous scout who made that claim, and Petersen allowing him back after even one incident of an assault flies in the face of everything we know about CP.
