He was gonna be gone regardless. He wants to get paid. I like SS, and last year he was very good for us. But may as well get a good quality player who can fill that role next year. I really like the pick.

It's a great pick. When philosophy, foresight, and good luck come together.

Some things I thought were interesting from John Dorsey's press conference on the Peters pick:
Says Peters is the best DB in the last 4 drafts. Hesitated when asked if Peters was one of the 12 impact guys in this draft. Then said "maybe" ...for a guy as transparent as John always is, I don't think he was one of the 12. When asked if he could start day one, he said he has the tools to be a great player "after year one"...to me, that indicates he doesn't see him starting opposite Sean Smith and that he will learn the technique to be the top corner in 2016. He will probably start the opener in Smiths position if he is suspended, though. When he talked to him for the first time after being drafted he immediately asked him if he is ready to come in and help us win a championship...obviously setting the bar high. Said Peters loves Al Harris and was a big fan of his growing up. Says he has the best ball skills of any defensive back in the draft. I really love this pick. |

Peters not particularly fast, not particularly quick
he looked fluid though In other news, we will see Snoop wearing chiefs jersey even more now. Several rappers wore Priest Holmes jersey.

I think, and I reiterate, I think a lot of it is that teams draft guys at corner who are extremely athletic and fast etc. they used that in college to be good corners, never really developing technique and the nuances of playing corner. As a corner, you can't utilize said speed in the nfl if you aren't sound technically (sp?). Peters is pretty developed as a corner, is coming into a good situation to learn, and plays a little faster than he times. |

Dorsey also said they had 3 calls to trade down by people wanting to draft Peters and had 1 call going to move up, but wouldn't say for who.

If it's true that he got calls about trade downs, one has to wonder how far back and if the Chiefs could have moved and still gotten Peters?

Maybe, but I think they might have taken Dupree regardless.
He would have easily fit into BPA and filled a huge need for them.

His face says that he knew all three calls were from teams wanting to take Peters. |
