Plaxico Burress is on his way to New England to work out f

ESPN.com reported Saturday that the Vikings are expected have RB Adrian Peterson back to practice as early as THIS morning (Sunday), after they take him off the Physically Unable to Perform list.

Peterson tore the ACL/MCL/meniscus in his left knee less than 8 months ago, but has been intent on returning by the beginning of the season, all indications are that his recovery has gone exactly as planned. Getting back to full team practice is the next step and then game time action. Expect Peterson to have a light workload first few games as the Vikings want to see how he will respond to contact and decision making. Hopefully the injury did not create any hesitation and decision conflicts for AP and that he can return to form.

With the amount of positive reports that have been released about Peterson along with him not having any set backs (yet) its safe to say that you can target him in Round 2 as a must-start borderline No.1/No.2 Fantasy RB. Handcuffing Peterson with No.2 RB Toby Gerhart is highly advised, you can target Gerhart in Rounds 7-9 in the majority of all formats.

Maybe payback to the Giants but Plax isn't the old Plax

I'm sure they can get him cheap. Guy is running out of time and probably willing to take less money to play for a "winner".

Do not see Plax as a good fit for that NE offense.

He will be better for their team than Chad Johnson was last year. Still probably won't be used a whole lot, but they could definitely use him

Unreal, best run team in the nfl, they will sign him just to keep him off other teams.

ps:i do not recommend drafting plax or b lloyd

Why would u not consider drafting B. Lloyd? He could easily finish top 15 wr this year. Would 900 yards and 6-10 tds be that big of a shock for him this year?
