That may be but I can't shake the feeling that this is a bad idea. God I hope I'm wrong.

Last one I remember being a force was Patrick Peterson. 2 Ints and a sack his first year. Most of his impact came on special teams though where he had 4 tds.

All this would've been moot had we taken Marcus Peters in 2015 when we had a clear need and he was BPA...

Glad we got Peat, but did we really need two Left Tackles?

Oh, Hell. It's Ian Fullacrap. Guess the deal is going to fall through. Can't remember the last time he threw crap against the wall and it actually stuck ... unless he's simply repeating what he heard from a respectable journalist.

KC Chiefs, Marcus Peters, is the last corner to have major impact his rookie year, at least that I can remember.
