Jones or Fuller never got an inch of separation from him...they just threw a lot to them and connected on very good throws and catches, that happens. Don't think they got anywhere close to burning him.

And that psu game was a DB's nightmare, it should be thrown out when evaluating him, imo

I hope he turns out to be the greatest db of all time, I'm just giving an opinion.

I watched every game he played his entire college career and was never impressed by his coverage skills.

His return skills however are up with the best
There isn't any debating that.

Do yall have any sense of humor? it's the off-season, shite, there isn't THAT much to talk about. A bit unnecessary to bash the first person that brings up something somewhat far-fetched relating to any LSU athletics involvement with the Saints.

Of course it would be a stupid move. I wouldn't say we are stacked at CB, but we are pretty well off. Well off enough where we need not trade up for a CB.

As far as being overrated, that's just dumb. He is clearly NOT overrated. Arguably the best athlete in all of college football. No he doesn't run a 4.2, as previously mentioned, but he is extraordinarily fast for his frame with great fluidity in his hips, which may be the most important factor when assessing a CB. In fact, he may be on of the safest picks in the draft.

No, its not dumb. He's in the top 5 on most boards yet he's slow and can barely play back to back series without plugging in an IV while the offense is on the field. Julio Jones would love to be lined up against him at the next level every Sunday.

He is just talking to him about the Saints future picks of Kelvin Shepard and Jo Barksdale.

Wow. I take it all back. Thanks, whoever the frick you are.

Look, a-hole, if you've got a hard on for an overrated corner by all means grab some lotion and a tissue and jerk off to his Fathead. I'm not saying he's not a talented athlete. I'm saying he's overrated which he is based on the fact that he's slow, he has issues with being able to stay on the field, and he disappeared after the first couple games of LSU's season.

If you want to keep banging your head up against that wall then be my guest.

I can't think you honestly believe this.

He ran a laser timed 4.37 40 last summer. He did not win the Bednarik award off of hype since Fairly and Bowers had just as much hype.

Now youre getting mad, how cute

this is a fact in your brain only. call him overrated, call his technique shitty, say he's a pussy, but i promise you he isn't slow. this is such an absurd statement, i dont even know why i'm addressing it. this is like someone saying water isnt wet and me arguing that it is, a waste of my time

quote:

he has issues with being able to stay on the field,


the only time this was an issue was in the UNC game and the UF game. beautiful generalization though kiddo!

quote:

and he disappeared after the first couple games of LSU's season.


why? because he didnt make highlight reel picks and return kicks for TD's? How dare he!!!

look, quit making yourself look silly because you have a grudge against peterson, or LSU, or whatever. it's childish my friend

You lost all credibility here, I agree to not trade up to get him (which the op was not fully serious) but to say he isn't a great player is dumb, seriously, and saying he is slow? Jesus hullabaloo

That has a movie board where they talk about MOVIES, a Hornets board where they talk about the HORNETS, a political board where they talk about POLITICS, a MSB board, a food and drink board, and on and on. Because this is tigerdroppings doesn't me we are obligated to be fans of LSU sports or the damn college for that matter, so eat a dick Sherlock. Do you have to be a LSU fan to discuss corndogs on the food and drink board?
