So, that being said, what facet of his game does he need to improve on most?

Run blocking or Pass blocking?

His balance and heart went out the window, I am afraid, since I witnessed him not even make the conditioning drill at Yulman Stadium a couple of years back. It was utterly embarrassing how he was trotting, if you can call it that, as he was getting lapped by his teammates. I am afraid he may have succumbed to the magical temptation of too many Popeyes fired chicken sammiches. It is still a mystery how he wrangled a new contract from SP. Maybe it's because there weren't quality alternatives in FA. Maybe because he can play multiple spots. Brees' quick release made him look better, not that Brees never got pressure up the middle. We're fixing to find out whether Jameis or Taysom can get out from the pressure that's sure to come from Peat's missed assignments.
