I honestly don't have anything too valuable to offer aside from he is still super strong and I was surprised he looked in such good shape after not playing half the season. Centers and Guards were struggling to move him. When Peko's determined to split a double team there will be movement. Both blockers will have to stick with him and not be able to combo block.
Peko only played around 20 snaps per game for the Ravens. He shared time with Jelly Ellis behind Brandon Williams and Michael Pierce who all have the same skill set. A lot of times when he was played, the game was out of reach and offenses were throwing the ball. So I don't have much meaningful data to evaluate. The most positive notes I have on him are from the Jets game. It was a Thursday night and he was fresh and very active. Looked like classic Peko in that game, disruptive as hell.
Also, not performance related, but he seemed like a cool, down to earth guy when he spoke with the media. I can see why Bengals fans would like him. He fit right in right away and was appreciative even though he admitted it felt weird putting on a Ravens jersey. Always had a smile.
