Peters signing big now

[lukemartin79]

I was not happy with practically giving Cooper away, and not going and getting a decent replacement at WR especially with Gallup a question mark going in to this season. They blew it as far as getting a run stuffing DT too. But I guess credit has to be given for Jerry's signing of Peters. He is going to have a lot more to do with our playoff success than I ever thought. I thought at the time it was a decent depth move, no big deal. Its turning out to be big.

I'm trying to think of a move Jerry hasn't hit on this year.

Zoneposters - 0 / 15

Jerry - 15/15

big issue is that he can only play a limited role at this stage...off field he is amazing, on field he is limited to snaps here and there

Yes invaluable dude been subbing all over the line..

all those payers like Hankins, TY, and Peters were late additions paying off but the offseason additions all better than advertised.

True. Sure hope McGovern can handle center. I didn't see the game last night- did he look ok at it?

And how do you know that? What makes you think he can't play full time..not being a ***,btw

Exactly- none of them were big earth shattering moves. Kind of little under the radar, no big deal ones that have turned out very good

didn't miss beat form where i sat as i was watching closely and all smooth operations. but hope is TB is only out this week. Back for the playoffs, even if its emergency backup, ...

I thought he played okay. But, then again, I wasn't focusing in on his play.

Thanks. No idea if he ever played it before, pro or college.

Peters is BIG and his signing is turning out to be as well.
Wish we would have handled the other aspects of the off season better that you touched on.

I think if needed he can play full game now..they brought him along slow but in sure hes in full game shape if needed. in playoff game you leave nothing on the field.

Not sure about college, but if I remember correctly, he played some center in training camp and pre-season last year, and I believe this year as well.

he like all our OL did not look good overall. Couple plays he got beat bad, couple he mauled. Once they rotated if put everybody out of position, and young Smith looked to suffer the most, looking lost almost every play

pretty soon he will have to, lol

Hate losing these guys in what are really meaningless games. Steele in Houston game, now Biadasz

well if he needs a blow here and there, we can play Ball with a TE over there and run the play the other way. Always a way if you know going in.

Yeah, its turning into a game of seeing how many of them we can play out of position at one time unfortunately.

Ive heard Ball is just awful
