Lethal Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 Surely these professional, elite athletes who play the same position ie Sherman and Norman, don't know what the heck they are talking about and we should listen to some internet posters here who rank him in the 15-17 range Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dem Birds Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 He's better at certain things than Peterson. Overall, I don't know. I think his coverage is more consistent. Peterson is more of a ball hawk. And a ridiculous athlete. I would have a hard time choosing between the two. Norman is hard to take serious because he says things just to get under other people's skin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

likeriver Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 You know how an owl can turn its head 360 degrees? It's like that with Trufant, except it's his hips Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KRUNKuno Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 He solely said this because he was directly asked about Trufant, plus he has beef with Peterson so of course he'd throw that slight in there. Trufant is average until he starts making meaningful plays. What he's doing now wont even get him into the Hall of Fame discussion, let alone all-pro discussion. Pro Bowl selections mean nothing these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butudontseeme™ Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 Kind of ironic. Tru is better than Norman too... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of makes me think you know he's better than average. You know, kind of like everyone else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norman is hard to take serious because he says things just to get under other people's skin. I can agree with a lot of this. Peterson is a heck of an athlete. He has always looked like a safety to me. He was one of those guys that as a Soph. at LSU, you knew the NFL was waiting on that guy. I don't think he is consistent and as technical as Trufant. While he is an elite athlete compared to Antrell Rolle, I thought he too would be moved to safety in 5 or 6 years. He did himself some good by dropping all that weigh last off season.

ya_boi_j Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Not knocking his opinion but there's a reason he took a shot a Peterson. The 2 have been going back and forth for a while now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Umm considering most of you acknowledge Trufant as being this proverbial shutdown/lockdown corner I think it's fair to bring up his play with regards to garnering HOF, All-Pro and other meaningful accolades. He will be average until he finds out how to make meaningful plays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to see more ints because the opportunities have been there but labeling him as "average" is kind of silly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
