Making sense of the Marcus Peters trade

I cannot believe it. I really can’t. It blows my mind. I spent some time discussing his unmatched value in terms of creating turnovers recently. The short story? He’s the best turnover creator in the league by far, and turnovers are the most valuable non-touchdown play in football.

Further, Peters is wildly cheap, with a year left on his rookie deal and the fifth-year option (which the Rams are certain to use). In short, at one of the most important positions in football, the Chiefs had a guy who did one of the most important things in football at a significantly higher rate than anyone else.
