Patrick Peterson

So then there is guy the Cardinals have.  You may have heard of him?  His name is Patrick Peterson.

Yes, we know he is currently under suspension.  He has served two out of the six weeks of his NFL suspension.  Any team that trades for Ramsey is going to give someone in value back, possibly not just picks.

Enter Cardinals fans who seem ready to just let him up and leave.  Some are still upset at his behavior last season.  You know what, Peterson has already apologized and did everything in the preseason to make it seem he wanted to remain in Arizona.

We also know about the age difference.  We get it.  However Peterson still has some good years in front of him.

Last year is water under the bridge and quite frankly once this suspension is over, so will that issue. The Cardinals are better served with Patrick Peterson and the young Byron Murphy in the defensive secondary.
