2. Marcus Peters, CB

He may be overshadowed by the cornerback on the other side of the field, Marlon Humphrey, but Marcus Peters has some of the best ball skills in the league and he always seems to make a big play to get Baltimore the ball.

With an all-pro playing opposite him, Peters gets thrown at a lot and he is vulnerable to giving up yards but the problem comes when you keep trying to go at him because he will eventually make a play. He leads the team with three interceptions and eight pass deflections.

But his impact isn’t limited to breaking up passes, he also has forced three fumbles and recovered two, one of which he returned for a touchdown. Baltimore’s entire defense is capable of making impact plays and putting points on the board and Peters may be the best at it.

There really is no avoiding Peters even though he will mainly stay on the same side of the field. However, he may struggle against the Browns play-action pass because he tends to get caught with his eyes in the backfield. For either good or bad, Peters’ name will be called on Monday night so keep an eye out.
