Chiefs Offseason Planet Evaluation: Marcus Peters
 

I bet you've heard of this guy. What's your grade for him this year?

Marcus played in 14 games this year, starting all 14. He recorded 42 tackles with 2 assists, and recorded 5 interceptions for 132 yards. He had 9 passes defensed, forced 3 fumbles, and recovered 2 for 45 yards and 1 touchdown.

Great instincts, always going for the big play, horrible tackler.

Top 3 player at his position

Now reverse that and see what you prefer.



Horrible instincts, never causes a big play, great tackler.


Yeah, I'd take Marcus Peters any day.

TRADE HIM TO THE RAIDERS!!!!!!

Wish there was one between B- and C+

You put Rhynos vs Hippos I was thinking of Hungry Hungry Hippo but i voted for both Rhynos are bad asses.

Hey KC, I think your post broke the thread.

Is something wrong, or do you think everyone is just mesmerized by rhino violence?

Gave him a B+ and descending ability because of his refusal to tackle.

After he posted it the web page would not scroll past the video. It's ok now.

Had an okay to good year for him. Had some legitimately bad games sprinkled in early, but finished impressively after the suspension.

It was weird, because the first time I looked it was fine, and the second time it was gummed up. DaFace fixed it.

I'll be honest - I love love love Peters going after the ball. Yeah, there are times when the ball carrier will get extra yards as a result, but turnovers are king, and what he's doing produces them. Plus, you figure it'll get into the opponents' heads and they'll be more conservative when they run his way.

All in all, Peters is kind of a knucklehead, but he's our knucklehead, and he's really really good at what he does. Would it be nice if he was also a team leader? Sure. But he's the kind of talent where you put up with some of the tomfoolery.

A-. If he could keep his head on straight (not throwing penalty flags into the crowd, for example), I'd bump him up to an A.

Definitely would not trade. He is by far the best player on this horrendous defense.
