That said, I think that Burkhead can and should replace him for a few reasons:
1) Burkhead has consistently performed better as a RB than Peerman these past couples of seasons.
2) Burkhead's hands and ability out of the backfield are exceptionally better than Peerman's.
3) Burkhead has shown the ability to contribute just as consistently as Peerman on special teams.
4) And finally, we have a couple promising young talents vying for a spot this year as the 4th RB. I really think if we try to place them on the practice squad they'll get picked up by someone else by the end of the year.
well this isn't burkhead vs peerman for a roster spot.. considering burkhead is 3rd on the DC and peerman 4th
Its peerman vs Carson vs b Hill
And for a 4th string running back it will come down to who does special teams the best.
I would say Peerman probly gets another season unless carson or b Hill really really shine the next 2 games. (and shine on special teams)
