Peters peak was right when he was trade to Philly and a few years after that.Β Writers like Peter King were pimping him quite a bit at that time.Β So around that time he was probably considered the consensus top LT in football.Β Β The past 5 years as Peters has aged he's still played at a high level but he's probably been more of a top 10 guy than the best in football.Β Β 9xpro bowler 3x First team All Pro 3x 2nd team All pro He's going to the hall (haul?).Β Β Bigger names though really? Sure Trent and Smith have had better years, but are they really bigger names? Hard to argue that. Smith is in Dallas so maybe he has an argument, but I find it hard to believe there names are that much more renowned than Peters over any portion of their careers.

Phire Posted October 25, 2017 Author Share Posted October 25, 2017 Are we really going to debate whether a 9 time pro bowler is a household name? the pro bowl voting is literally a referendum on how many casual fans recognize your name Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked who had a bigger name than Peters outside Thomas the past 5 years, he said Trent and Smith. Fair enough on both of them, but beyond those two you aren't going to name anyone.Β Basically he absolutely is a household name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
