Peterson is the best corner prospect to come along since Champ Bailey... No way in hell does he play anything but cornerback.
He does have the versatility to play safety, however.

Maybe because Peterson has really tight hips, which indicates he can't play CB. Alot of top CB prospects (Michael Jenkins, Antrell Rolle) Have switched from CB to S due to tight hips.

He may not have the most fluid hip swivel, but I wouldn't say he's tight. Amukamara has tighter hips than Peterson.

Which would also be dumb lol.
Let's get back to QB's.
IDK why you, Jake, don't like Gabbert much..I think he clearly has all the talent needed to be eilte, and he's a smart kid, we can't deny that. Most people will say he has a huge learning curve since he played in a spread, but he played in a Pro Style Offense in high school, so the footwork and such wont be a huge step, he'll just need to revisit it. I'd like to hear your view on him.

I never said I didn't like Gabbert.
Kaeprnick is the guy I think is overrated.

Oh, well yeah. I don't think he is an elite prospect... That doesn't mean he can't develop into a great QB down the line, but I don't think he is an immediate fix for any team. Any other year, Gabbert would probably be a mid to late first round guy.
For reference purposes, Andrew Luck would be an "elite" QB prospect. Matt Barkley or Landry Jones to a lesser extent.

High School to the Pros? You bet your ass it's gonna be a learning curve.. It probably helps, but not to the extent you are thinking.
