I'll agree with this....save for the last couple years when he was asked to play more snaps.  Watching the games, you could see him getting shoved around quite a bit.  Peko always hustled though, and is a great community guy.  I never really had so much beef with him, (or even Rey, for that matter, even though he had a couple terrible years), it had more to do with overpaying aging guys like these instead of pursuing younger talent in FA.  Some people call that hating I guess.
