I don't think anyone was saying he should be put at FS though, he should be a SS in the NFL but he does have the speed to play FS. I'm not gonna try to predict where he should and will play in the NFL and again that's why we have a team of guys that do this for a living.
Well technically, Pickles mentioned it right before my comments. However, my point was not that someone suggested it. My point was if I am going to draft a S in the top 5 for the Bears, I would want a S that can be a FS. That is our biggest need at the S position IMO. We have a ton of guys that can probably be adequate to good at SS and even if we didn't, it's a bit easier to find a guy to play SS for a reasonable price in FA.
So I don't think Peppers is as big of a need for this team as a true FS would be. The biggest problem with our safeties right now is we've got like 5 SS types and 0 FS types.
