In 2006 he was finally able to establish himself as a starting offensive tackle, and in 2007 he was appointed to the Pro Bowl for the first time . In the summer of 2008 there were increasing quarrels between Peters, who was dissatisfied with his contract, and the Bills. He stayed away from the preparation in part, was fined, but was then used in 13 games and was again called to the Pro Bowl.
