Peppers should be a full time RB
- Thread starter JP2Blue
- Start date
It will be interesting to see where he "mostly" plays. He is an exceptional athlete. Heck, he could probably play QB.
He is an NFL player......almost....now. But he will never play RB in the NFL. Never. So if will be interesting to see how UM uses him while they still have him. Don't think super, 5 star recruits aren't paying attention. I'd hate to see him get broken playing RB.....even though he's electric every time he touches the ball.
Even as he plays for my dreaded foe, I must admit he is something to see.

I too think his skills would be better suited on offense. Not saying he isn't good at safety but he would have more impact on offense, kick and punt returner. Seems playing both would wear a guy out and leave him more likely to be injured. Woodson did it to a degree but there was only one Woodson.
Peppers is one of, if not, the best football player in the B1G. He will play but 1 position in the NFL. It's not Harbaugh's job to put him in the his best "NFL" position. I get that. In college he can play all over the place. He's that good. It would be a shame, however, if he's ground down as a RB at UM and gets hurt or doesn't get the opportunities to shine where he will be more likely to play at the next level. I have no doubt JH has his best interests in mind at all times. I can't believe he will ever put him in a position that he A. can't excel at (is there one?) and B. will undermine his chances of being a highly desired pro prospect.
My guess is that in the NFL he will play defense and be a return guy. In the mean time, enjoy him in AA.
