Imagine the jump ball and fade route to Lebron James.


A QB could throw it 14 feet in the air and just let Lebron go get it.

He could also BLOW by CBs in a go route with his strides and length. First 10 steps no, but a 50 yard route, the guy is getting by anyone much like Calvin.

It's pretty simple, LeBron would be a taller version of Calvin Johnson. About 3 inches taller. And Calvin is already unguardable

Here's the article on Patrick Peterson:

quote:

There's not much he can't do. He's one of those guys, if it wasn't football, then baseball maybe or another sport. He's that type of talent and athlete. -Carson Palmer


quote:

Cardinals head coach Bruce Arians believes the first-round pick out of LSU has the potential to be a top-five NFL wideout.


And he's not scratch. 8 months ago he was an 8 handicap and I remember reading recently he's lowered it to 4. He taught himself without playing on a course very much. Watching online and hitting balls in his basement.

quote:

Peterson taught himself golf in two years by watching online videos and reading about Tiger Woods. Moreover, he has an 8 handicap. For those who don’t know golf, an 8 handicap is very good for someone who has only been playing the sport for two years.


Also, Arians said he had the second strongest arm on the team behind Palmer and that he had the second strongest leg on the team behind Jay Feely. (looking for article on that)


Guy is a freak of nature and could've played any sport he set his mind to.



Here's another article that talks about how in 1 game he threw a pass, caught a pass, and had to guard Megatron on defense. LINK
