If Peat can take over as the starter this year at any time we are way ahead of the game with him.

Next year at this time he might have a shot to honestly make a push to take over as the starter.

year 3 would not make me angry either.

this is why he was ranked all over the boards at draft time.

getting a dancing bear to slide quickly with grace is always a challenge.

My number one concern with him comes into play here. He needs to get nasty. It is the nasty mentality that always seem to put that final little touch to an OL player IMO. No he will never be a Turley. But being a complete opposite is not good. he just need some atomic balm or something in his jock to jump start him. You known to put that fine edge on the desire for pancakes.

OL and pancakes must go hand in hand IMO. You gotta want to drive your assignment into the dirt and just bury him. humiliation, dominance and inflicting pain. This has to be you favorite part of the game.

Ok here is my idea of perfection. Conrad Dobler (bring back memories?) and Turley on the right side of an OL is my idea of perfection. Ok i am getting gitty here :p An impossible measuring stick I know. But anywhere close is acceptable. just not the opposite end

He was not my pick at the time BUT I understand the pick and am willing to let it develop as you can see. If he can make that on field personality adjustment IMO he will work out just fine. Sky could be the limit ;)
