He also was protecting for a mentally broken QB who lost his confidence and started holding the ball for long periods of time.
Check this out: It's a really good breakdown that assigns "blame" on sacks. They drop Peters to "responsible" for 5 sacks.
There's also video of all the sack reps, so you can see Peters in action.
I wouldn't want to count on him for a full season by any means, but I can see utility in bringing him in on a cheap, no-risk deal to band-aid LT for the first 4-6 games of the year while either Fisher gets healthy, or Niang or a rookie draft pick gets up to speed to handle.
He's obviously not what he was, but he could be a good cheap option.
