Stephen Petermen released

[Trueboysfan]

Wasn't this guy a pretty good gaurd? He's only in his 9th season...wonder if he's still got some juice left in the tank? You guys think he's worth a look since we need as much oline as we can find atm.

 

[Trueboysfan]

lol the wonders of google...i thought the name sounded familiar. Drafted by the Cowboys in the 3rd. Now I remember him.

 

[laythewood28]

Can't hurt.

 

[Vanilla2]

No

Just no

 

[ElGatoGrande]

Did he actually become a decent guard after we gave up on him? Does the Landry 3yr rule need to be revised?

 

[Trueboysfan]

ya he was cut due to injuries...but played for a long time with the lions and did really well up until an injury hit him. He was cut and then went to the jets and was released again. All I was pointing out is that he has done well in the past and we could use looks at more gaurds.

Last year was probably his best but for the most part he hasn't been more than an average guard... And some think he wasn't even average.

That being said looking at who is probably going to make the roster...

Smith
Free
Parnell
Frederick
Costa
Leary
Arkin
Bern

That's 8 guys right there... Even without dealing with Livings. And then you have the Bell and Kowalski situations.

Unless a guy is a sure-thing to knock someone off the roster I can't see it happening.

that pretty much sums it up, anybody that gets let go is going to be more or less the same level of player...

 

[Zimmy Lives]

Weak link on a bad line last year. Pass.

I don't think Arkin makes the team, nor should he. The team moving Free to G is all you need to know about Arkin. The last thing the Cowboys want to do is play Arkin in a real game. He is just another in a long line of failed 4th round draft pick projects.

FYI, Mack is hurt again. Missing practice today with an ankle injury

 

[dcstands4]

Who??

don't know where you heard he was good but you are completely wrong. He was at best mediocre. Just that the others around him were in some cases worse so he looked better. He has never been worth it.

 

[Bullflop]

One good thing might come from acquiring Peterman . . . he'd be likely to make Bernadeau look much better.

I got it from a scouting report...
http://thejetsblog.com/bga/bga-scouting-stephen-peterman/

Peterman has been completely healthy over the past two seasons and in 2010, although he was dealing with a foot issue all year, which [SIZE=+0]affected him badly[/SIZE], he didn’t miss any games. He struggled badly all year though, although he did play well over the last month. In 2011, he had a solid season and was ranked as PFF’s 16th best guard. However, in 2012, although he graded out positively overall, he was down near the bottom of the league in terms of pass protection. Peterman’s best season was probably the 2009 season that was cut short – he ended up ranked 14th despite missing the last seven games and could probably have finished in the top five if he’d stayed healthy and continued to play at the same level.

So my original point was that he has done well in the past but looks like injuries have really affected him. So me being completely wrong is completely wrong, unless of course you know the guy and have good talks over dinner with his coaches.

 

[big dog cowboy]

Sorry, been there done that.

 

[Nirvana]

it's a safe bet to say any guard released today and tomorrow is garbage

 

[CATCH17]

They drafted Brian Winters.

Probably the guy we should've picked over Escobar.

Is Winters going to start?

 

[CATCH17]

Is Winters going to start?

I'm guessing so since they released Peterman.
