Gotta remember it's only for 10 regular season games, but he's a INT machine. Exactly what we needed. Jimmy also might be out for a longer time than expected.

he wasn't agressive

If we got Peters for Young, EDC needs to get arrested for highway robbery. Even with all of Peters’ faults he is a 1000x better than Canady and Bethal put together.

so far ive seen no reports of any draft pick from any of the official sources - the 5th rounder was bandied about by unverified people before - but they also did have kenny young so not sure

and it's an undisclosed 2020 draft pick per Zrebiec

What happens when Jimmy gets back? How do we play this? I hope this isn't an indicator that jiimmy is miles away from recovering?

Before people hype this too much remember that there is a reason the Rams are willing to deal him. He has struggled for long stretches, and played well at other times. If the Ravens work to his strengths then he could be good here. Possibly better than Carr is on the outside. But I'll believe it when I see it.

The good thing is that if this is a bust it didn't cost much. Low risk, possibly a high reward.

Reason he was struggling a little is wade/rams play alot of zone which isnt his strength, he will fit dight in here in man to man press and be able to make plays on the ball which he does best

this was one of my first thoughts - that jimmy's injury is taking longer than expected but if not then we're back to a 4 way rotation at cb with high quality corners - the only difference is our slot corner is brandon carr rather than tavon

My first thought... I hated it.

My second thought... we didn't give up much, so its great.

Think it might be more of a long term play than short term play. Jimmy and Carr could easily be gone next year, and they may be able to get Peters at a little bit of a discount at this point.

the more i think about this the more i like it - marcus peters gets to come here and play his natural game but also doesnt have to be that number 1 corner - we can either go back to having LCB and RCB on the outside like we do with other outside corners or we have marlon and peters trail specific receivers around the field on a matchup basis

but if marlon is shutting down number 1 receivers that means peters is getting somebody else and that could be a mismatch with earl thomas on the back end
