If Peterson wants another free $15M, he should beat his kids some more and get another paid vacation.

Ill at Peterson wanting guaranteed cashComment -
He has a valid point about contracts being 1 sided in owner's favor but it is something that should be discussed at NFLPA meetings, not Twitter. His pr agent should be fired for not putting a gag order on him.Comment -
AP isn't the sharpest fella out there.Comment -
AP is the highest paid RB in NFL history by nearly double, now he wants QB money? What's next, play the race card?Comment -
@JosinaAnderson: Filed to ESPN: #Vikings RB Adrian Peterson has informed me that he's in Minnesota and that he's planning to attend OTAs starting today.
Lol tough guyComment -
Now that he is back to work, how high do you put him on your draft rankings? He still has to be a top 5 RB easily even with the year off right?Comment -
Too 3. Charles bell and him. I'd even put him ahead of bell due to the suspension. Some will say otherwise because of age but it's just me. Wouldn't worry about the layoff, guy is a freak of natureComment -
He could be..how is the offensive line this year?Originally posted by BigSpoonComment -
And he's a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSE!Comment -
Charles faded so bad at the end last year. I'll let other ppl take him and be frustrated when he doesn't produce in the fantasy playoffs. AP has never had this good of an offense around him. He is going to ball, i would take him 1 then Bell then Charles....Originally posted by Vinnie PazComment -
AP easily the #1 RB, ignoring the off-field stuff, the guy is simply an alien on the field even tho he just turned 30.Originally posted by BigSpoonComment -
Peterson is basically broke men..he has paid so much money out to women and kids and lawyers
Then his own spending...he is 10000% broke at 40
He had to come back because he needs paychecksComment -
He came back for the love of the game ? LOL
He came back for the $ 250 ,000 he gets for reporting to OTA`sComment -
Yeah, thinking about it all I agree. That year off saved some wear and tear on him for sure. Can see the Vikings riding him hard like the Cowboys did with Murray last season.Originally posted by slacker00Comment -
What a child beating idiot.Comment -
Footballguys only ranks AP as the ninth RB in Standard scoring and outside the Top 10 (11th) in PPR.Originally posted by bob6199

MN is now a playoff team.Comment -
LT, you are showing the projection of David Dodds, one of the 18 guys there. This isn't the Footballguys consensus.Comment -
Yes, the one I trust the most. (shhhh)Originally posted by slacker00
Dodds was main reason I won both SBR leagues last season.Comment -
Ah, ok. I'll keep an eye on him. I guess he is co-owner. But his AP projection is on the low end of the 18 guys on staff.Originally posted by LT ProfitsYes, the one I trust the most. (shhhh)
Dodds was main reason I won both SBR leagues last season.Comment -
Yeah let me try and dig up all.Comment -
I like Anderson a lot this hear. Love his style of running and he should hum in that kubiack scheme. Need to lean on the ground game more too anyhowComment -
Here is consensus. Dodds is part of "David and Joe" ownership team.Originally posted by LT Profits

AP is certainly polarizing, anywhere from 1 to 13.Comment -
Damn some dude would really take Murray 1st????Comment -
A few things to remember about the Vikings, they've got Norv as OC who loves to mush the football, they were middle of the pack last year without AP, using guys like Asiata (glorified FB) and McKinnon (a rookie). Zimmer, a defensive minded HC, also loves to use the run game whenever he can. As long as Peterson can stay healthy, the upside is enormous and another 2k certainly isn't out of the question, the Vikings staff will certainly give him every opportunity.Comment -
Keep in mind SBR leagues are PPR, these rankings are all Standard.Comment -
Gotta throw out the 13, Chad Parsons is clueless. He thinks Minny wants to be a passing team and AP at 30 is too old.Originally posted by LT ProfitsComment -
Now he needs to stop doing interviews and earn last year's and this year's pay.Comment -
He is like the Randy Moss of running backs. He's there to get his touchdowns. Sure, he has great talent - with a million dollar body attached to a $5 brain!Comment -
He will get 1200 yards rushing if he stays healthy
Nobody likes the scumbag
He will be driving garbage truck in 5 years we all know thisComment -
ota's smo t ay's..........Comment -
If he is healthy and plays all 16 games its at least 1400 yards and 10 TD's easy.Originally posted by jjgoldComment -
Another thing to consider, AP is playing for his 2016 salary. He wanted a guarantee, but he'll have to earn it.Comment
