So, your interpretation is that the execs that are comparing the two players is specifically talking about HB when he was in COLLEGE? Im pretty sure they're comparing him to HM TODAY. Because Pepp TODAY is bigger, and faster than HB. And obviously more athletic. Unless you wanna argue that too?
Its a really sloppy and terrible comparison tbh. They are both great athletes yea but thats about where the similarities end. Peppers is much taller and plays a different position. And HB was one of the best at forcing takeaways and Peppers has 0.

Even in the NFL Mathieu is a roaming free safety while jabrill will be much more of a strong safety so yea just a bad comparison.

Theres only one person on this site that wont agree with that. I know my MICHIGAN brehs and I aren't the one.
I like Peppers he just isn't anywhere near as productive as HB. Which is all I said to begin with. U were the one who came at me acting like I was wrong. He's got a lot of potential obv b/c of his athleticism tho

I think that had more to do with Les being a dumbass. I wanna see more of that read option they ran on 1 series vs Bama last season
Yu never kno he might respond better to Dumayne Craig who came from Auburn's system. I see him as a high risk/high reward while Etling is a low risk/low reward.

I dont think he is more athletic or/and faster than HB was on the field in college bruh but it doesnt matter. Both are/were asked to do diff things :yeshrug:
