I guess it's crazy to think we might somehow get lucky and Peterson will elect to stay his senior year... Link ----> Robert Quinn, Ryan Mallett among top*prospects for 2011 NFL Draft - SI.com - NFL Draft 2010
Matt McGuire has him number 1 overall on his big board for 2011 players. The only way PP stays is if there's a lockout. but if there's a lockout, i'll miss the saints for a whole season.
This time last year, LSU had two projected first rounders in Ciron Black (a "surefire" top 15 pick) and Brandon LaFell. Quite obviously, these projections are usually incorrect. I think Peterson is the real deal and will easily go top 15, but the thing about UNC having 4-5 first rounders is certianly subject to change.
Patrick Peterson is one the best CBs to come out in a while. Guy has the size speed coverage ability and can lay the wood. I honestly dont think we've ever had a CB as good as him here. We've had a lot of good ones, but nobody that dominate.
Not to take anything away from Mr. Patrick Peterson and you have to go back a ways, but Dr. Tommy Casanova was also a great LSU CB. I think he was moved to safety in the pros. Here's a link with some of his LSU stats and other bio info... College Football Hall of Fame
