Peterson or Culliver?

Culliver. He's gotten much better at it this year. I was talking about last year. The point was, he's always in position.

I can now honestly say Culliver is the better CB. He makes so much plays on the deep ball, Peterson is overrated, can't believe I wanted him over any pick we were going to make.

Good thing he didn't fall. Aldon is a stud.

Peterson is a beast but I think Culliver is a better cover corner.

I haven't been impressed with Peterson at all. He was considered such a can't miss prospect that a lot of fans still think he's a pretty great player, especially on the Cardinals forum. But at some point you're going to have to start talking about the bust label being applied to Peterson

Not going that far, but he's certainly overrated.

bust no? overrated yes. He has a handfull of picks in a season and a half and a rookie season full of ST highlights. Definitely not a bust, not a reach, he is just an athlete right now. developing as a CB.

No kidding, we would've been a top 15 defense like we have in recent years instead of a top 10 like we have been.

Baalke!!!!

Punt returning, well not against us anyway.

He's not even top 20 in punt returns with players who have 8 or more attempts

I honestly believe you have to factor in coaching as well I think Peterson would have been a stud if we would have chosen him. Its the main reason imo why Cully is the better cover corner at this point.

I agree that Peterson is overrated as a corner back. He gets way to many pass interference and defensive holding penalties.
