Adding Marcus Peters drastically improves the Ravens defense

The Ravens acquired a young, two-time All-Pro cornerback in exchange for (essentially) Kaare Vedvik and Kenny Young. That’s right, Marcus Peters, who leads the NFL in interceptions since he was drafted in 2015 was acquired for a K/P and a young linebacker who has been a healthy scratch the last two weeks.

Before we get into what Peters means for the Ravens, let’s get to know Peters’ skill set and some background ...

Marcus grew up in Oakland and emerged as a budding track and football star. His senior year, Peters netted seven interceptions and returned six punts/kickoffs for touchdowns, leading McLymonds High School to their first ever undefeated season.
