He has been one of my favorite players since being drafted in '06. I feel that he has, while never actually being a superstar, made some significant contributions to some very good defenses. Also a model citizen and family man.
I noticed tho, second half of the '14 season, he seemed to be getting just mauled by O linemen.
I like Peko a lot as a human being, great dude.
But he has never been great in my opinion, not even in his prime. He was a good run stopper, but that was it.
He could never penetrate the gaps worth a damn and last year he even fell off as a run stopper.
Dude honestly needs to be replaced.
Here is to hoping Sims plays great, stays healthy and takes his spot for the betterment of the team.
