You insert a guy like D'haquille to give a sort of veteran presence and can easily take on the No. 1 WR role. He is more of a need than Leslie was last year


That's all speculation. You saw last year we needed a big tall reciever with above average speed to catch Mett's deep balls and we suffered because Dural was injured and Leslie couldn't qualify. Dural or Peterson will be in the starting rotation this year and have better quality experience against SEC competition so that veteran thing is a moot point. They will have about the same amount of experience.

Dural will def be 1 of the top 4 WRs this season. Peterson wont. A lot of people think just because hes PP brother that he is a stud and dont know much about the kid. Truth is, hes not near the same level as PP. Not even close. His best years in football was his freshman and sophomore year. After that, he regressed each year. I dont see him getting that much PT for a while. Diarse will play before he does.

At the under armour all american week, he got the most disappointed award. Didnt catch well, not a good route runner, and wasnt there mentally. They even questioned his work ethic for the entire week. During spring, the coaches stayed on him because he would take too long to get his reps in and was kinda lagging behind and taking his time. Not off to a good start.

A lot of people have way too high expectations for him because they hear we got PPs brother without knowing much about the kid.
