Peterson is a very good CB. Great size, athleticism, and a physical player. However, he's overrated IMO. He's not the caliber of a Champ Bailey, Charles Woodson, or Darrelle Revis but is better coming out of college than Terrance Newman, Quentin Jammer, and Malcom Jenkins.
I'd rather have Joe Haden who I think is a better cover corner than Peterson, just shorter (and slower in 40 time). Haden had an outstanding rookie season for the Browns.

Personally, I think Jimmy Smith is better in coverage than Peterson or Amakumura. He is a really good bump and run guy, but his tackling isn't as good.
Amakamura doesn't play as fast as his timed speed. You can watch Blackmon beat him to a pulp on highlight clips. He gets behind him many times.
