I'm in a keeper league. Should I keep him or keep no one and have an extra 1st round pick.

Tough call. I'd say dump him. One hell of an injury to come back from and I don't think he bounces back to his old self.Comment -
Who else is getting kept? How many teams in the league?Comment -
I'd be concerned that he's going to push himself to play before he should and get hurt again.Comment -
well if you get a 1st round pick dump him, Its not like you would draft him in the 1st round so why keep
imoComment -
I'm thinking the same thing. He should take all the time he needs, because it isn't like the Vikings are going anywhere this season.Originally posted by Grits n' Gravy
I would probably drop him, but it is a tough call Mint.Comment -
hes playing pretty bad for vikesComment -
It looks like it's going to be a 10 team. Looking at other teams it looks like foster or Brady and brees or rice might be available.Comment -
dont like peterson this year injury ankles scare meComment -
dump him why u canComment -
I'd drop him, too risky as a keeper to anchor your roster.Comment -
RBs are tricky they always get hurtComment -
I'd take Rice or Foster over him, definitely. Is there a chance you can draft either of them? Trade for them?Comment -

I guess it depends on where he goes in the draft as there might be some reward. I just can't have a number 1 pick be a question mark IMO.Comment -
If I understand the question correctly the answer should be obvious. You would essentially be "trading" AP for a first round pick, so it's an EASY call to dump his ass. Let someone else make the mistake of drafting him before the sixth round.Comment -
Thanks to everyone for there insight and input.Comment -
I think it definitely depends on who else is being kept and who would be available if you did dump him, but like others have mentioned, he's a big injury risk.Comment -
It doesn't really matter that much because I have him in the 60s on my overall board and around the 20th running back, so he is not worth sacrificing a first round pick for no matter what.Originally posted by Straight CashComment -
AP is still the best back the leagueComment -
i need the tigers and rays todayComment -

We are not in 2009 any more. AP is a wasted pick this year. Let's see how he does next year.

basically everything my bro just said, I don't have him in my 60s more like 30's but still no way in hell I'm keeping him if i can get a 1st rounder for dumping him. No brainer - even 2nd rounder I'd dump -Comment -
He didn't hurt his ankle, he tore his ACL.Originally posted by HurlsComment -
How about AP's off the field issues?Comment -
Much ado about nothing. Guy is a tough mofo and if coaches feel he can be out there week 1 carrying the rock 25 times a game he will.Originally posted by will2surviveComment -
But that's the point, he won't be. He may not see the field until October. If he plays earlier than that, it may not be pretty.Originally posted by Grits n' GravyComment -
ok which makes it worse, vikings are not going to be a good team. I am sure that he will have some great games and if he dont get hurt then maybe it is not bad cause their offense is going to be on the field a lotOriginally posted by Andy117Comment -
Thanks again, I think what im gonna do is let AP go draft a stud rb/qb and then draft ap in the 2nd or 3rd round. I believe AP is a freak.of nature and will bounce back sooner then people think.Comment -
I would not waste a top 5 pick on AP to many questions on himComment -
hes still pretty good of courseComment -
Take Chris Johnson.Comment -
i bet could hit AP hard and tackle him
he is washed upComment -
Nah. The guy is too tough. No bitch in him.Originally posted by ZetaPsi808Comment -
Love it! He is my 4th rated RB after the Big 3Originally posted by Grits n' GravyComment
