How will the Minnesota Vikings do this season?
Asked in: Adrian Peterson, Bernard Berrian, Christian Ponder, Darius Reynaud, Devin Aromashodu, Greg Camarillo, Kyle Rudolph, Michael Jenkins, Minnesota D/ST, Percy Harvin, Ryan Longwell, Stephen Burton, Toby Gerhart, Visanthe Shiancoe

1Bob Reed
I think people are underrating them. McNabb still has some in the tank and their defense hasn't changed too much. They'll fight for a wildcard spot.

Who is a better draft pick: Peyton Hillis or Adrian Peterson?
Asked in: Peyton Hillis, Adrian Peterson, Running Backs, Cleveland Browns, Minnesota Vikings

0Keith Goldner
Peterson, not really close. No one has been as consistently great at RB as AP.

Who is a more exciting player: Adrian Peterson or Jamaal Charles?
Asked in: Adrian Peterson, Jamaal Charles, Running Backs, Minnesota Vikings, Kansas City Chiefs

0Johnny Hewitt
AP or AD, whatever you want to call him. You know he'll be a top 5 back no matter what.

Who is a more exciting player: Adrian Peterson or Chris Johnson?
Asked in: Adrian Peterson, Chris Johnson, Running Backs, Minnesota Vikings, Tennessee Titans

0Bob Reed
Johnson is more exciting, AD is the guy you want though. He's one of a kind.

Is Adrian Peterson overrated?
Asked in: Adrian Peterson, Minnesota Vikings, Running Backs

1Ashley Sanders
You know, I only have him as my fourth or fifth best guy this year. His team is going to stink out loud and I just don't think he's going to perform like a top pick should.

I have the first overall pick. Who should I take?
Asked in: Arian Foster, Adrian Peterson, Chris Johnson, Ray Rice, Drafting, Running Backs

1Sean Weinstock
I'm always going with AP, but that's probably biased and unfair. numberFire, what do you think?

Draft theory: 12 Man and 6 point passer TD
Asked in: Adrian Peterson, Arian Foster, Aaron Rodgers, Tom Brady

1Keith Goldner
In a 6-point pass TD league the top tier of QBs improve. While RBs may still be the value picks in the beginning, it's more important in this kind of league to get one of the top 5 guys: Rodgers, Manning, Brees, Rivers, Brady. Because of the pass TD totals, they separate themselves a little more from the Ryan/Flacco types. Schaub could go either way. Check out the draft kit to see how the overall ranks are affected by 6-pt pass TDs. That should give you a good idea of the positions relative value.

Would you take Arian Foster first overall?
Asked in: Arian Foster, Adrian Peterson

1Stacy Robert Reagan
I think I would in a league with standard scoring... I got him very late last year on a couple of my teams and he helped me to a great year. I do hate that he lost his fullback but I think a hopefully improved Texan DEF(big if) may get him some more touches running out the clock at the end of games...

10 team draft and i have pick #4. It's not a ppr league. who do i take?
Asked in: Adrian Peterson, Arian Foster, Jamaal Charles, Ray Rice

1Keith Goldner
Whoever is available out of: Adrian Peterson, Arian Foster, Ray Rice, Chris Johnson

I have already entered emails twice now to get the draft kit and now even when I enter more emails It won't let me click submit. What's going on?
Asked in: New York Giants, New York Jets, Arian Foster, Adrian Peterson

0Daniel Okopnyi
Here's an idea, don't post it to the questions pertaining to players and leagues, tagging it with those players. Try the FAQ, Suggestions/Bug Fixes or contact someone on the Forums. Otherwise, I don't think the regulars here can help you friend!

Do you recommend playing on ESPN or Yahoo?
Asked in: Michael Vick, Arian Foster, Adrian Peterson, Ray Rice, Lesean McCoy

1Steve Morris
I prefer Yahoo just because that's what I'm used to. I find that managing my lineup and adding/dropping players is easier. I think ESPN's content (projections/articles) are more valuable though.

Which RB should I play? I can choose between AP, Matt Forte, and Jahvid Best
Asked in: Adrian Peterson, Matt Forte, Jahvid Best, Minnesota Vikings, Detroit Lions, Chicago Bears

2Matt Gregg
AP DOMINATES the Lions, traditionally. Forte is running against a Green Bay team that is second worst in the NFL against RBs--not to mention that he accounted for more than half of the Bears offense last week. Though MIN has not been great against the run the past 2 weeks, I would put Best in the third spot behind AP and Forte.

Not sure how to proceed, but...
Asked in: Philip Rivers, Ryan Fitzpatrick, Adrian Peterson, Peyton Hillis, Ryan Mathews, Steve Johnson, Brandon Marshall, Nate Washington, Deion Branch, Percy Harvin, Dallas Clark, Brandon Pettigrew

2Keith Goldner
Your team is pretty stacked. You could use a little help at WR since it is PPR (and your backs aren't great for PPR) but other than that, you definitely have a good team. Just sounds like you've run into some bad luck

there's tons of noise about ridley. why's he so gaddang special?
Asked in: Stevan Ridley, Running Backs, Frank Gore, Mike Tolbert, Adrian Peterson

1Anthony Best
for the moment because he is on the patriot's,and in taking over Woodheads spot while he is injured and he is getting more touches than Green-Ellis

Would you trade Aaron Rogers and Shonn Greene for Romo and Peterson?
Asked in: Tony Romo, Shonn Greene, Aaron Rodgers, Adrian Peterson

1Mitch Buonafede
In my opinion being a rodgers owner I'd say absolutely not. Especially having fred jackson and forte already.

Good trade (Peterson, Cassel for Stafford, Wells)?
Asked in: Adrian Peterson, Matthew Stafford

1Keith Goldner
I think you are giving up too much for Stafford. Peterson is still the most consistent RB on a year to year basis. And you can play freeman/hasselbeck on a match up basis who will both produce well.

I have absolutely no idea what to do with my lineup this week.
Asked in: Adrian Peterson, Maurice Jones-Drew, DeMarco Murray, Pierre Thomas, Wes Welker, Larry Fitzgerald, Steve Smith (CAR), Mario Manningham, Malcom Floyd, Sidney Rice

1Ryan Nelson
I'd go with Welker and Smith at WR, AP and PT at RB and Murray at the flex. I wouldn't start Fitz since he has the Ravens PO'd def to contend with plus also he hasn't scored a TD in forever. You can't really ignore the tasty match-up against the rams and the depleted NO backfield. Houston is a good defense, they might shut down MJD.

Who Wins? Welker/Gore for AP/Nicks?
Asked in: Wes Welker, Frank Gore, Adrian Peterson, Hakeem Nicks

2Keith Goldner
I'd take Welker/Gore in PPR, any other league I'd take AP/Nicks

AP for Welker and Knowshon in a PPR league?
Asked in: Adrian Peterson, Wes Welker, Knowshon Moreno

1Dave Harris
If you are being offered AP for Welker and Knowshon then I say yes. If vice versa, thats not the best move. Knowshon will be pretty much worthless whenever McGahee comes back, and theres always that other RB that the Broncos have, I forget his name. So essentially, its Welker for AP straight up, and I'd rather be on the AP side of that trade.

Need 2 for Week 12: Adrian Peterson, McFadden, Michael Bush, Ben Tate, Kevin Smith, Ryan Mathews
Asked in: Adrian Peterson, Darren McFadden, Michael Bush, Kevin Smith, Ryan Mathews

1Keith Goldner
AP is out. I would start Run DMC if active, if not, then Bush. And in your 2nd spot I would start Mathews.

Am I starting the right people? Screenshot inside.
Asked in: Eli Manning, Tim Tebow, Jonathan Stewart, Reggie Bush, Kevin Smith, Willis McGahee, Frank Gore, Adrian Peterson, Wes Welker, Laurent Robinson, Miles Austin, Kellen Winslow, Owen Daniels, Houston D/ST

1Keith Goldner
I would definitely start Gore over both Kevin Smith and Jonathan Stewart. Would probably start McGahee too (so Bush, McGahee, and Gore as your RBs). Unless you're a huge underdog, I would not start Kevin Smith.

Need 2 for Week 15: Roy Helu, Michael Bush, Adrian Peterson, and Kevin Smith
Asked in: Roy Helu, Michael Bush, Adrian Peterson, Kevin Smith

2Nathan Miller
AP for sure.Helu or Bush based on who else you have on that team (for instance, I'm running Grossman

Must Start 2: AP vNO, CJ Spiller vMIA, Hillis @ARI, Gore vPIT, Nate Washington @IND
Asked in: Adrian Peterson, C.J. Spiller, Peyton Hillis, Frank Gore, Nate Washington

0Q Eans
Peterson will still get his average workload so i would choose him first. As for the rest i'm more inclined to go spiller next. This is the kind of game where spiller will get a good number of touches and is a threat to break a big one. Hillis has to worry about Seneca Wallace and an underrated Ari run defense. Gore is facing Pit and is being rested more for the playoffs. If Jake Locker was starting then washington would be a good bet. But he's not and Hasselbeck like Williams more.

AP or MJD??
Asked in: Maurice Jones-Drew, Adrian Peterson

0Anthony Best
I like both. Slight Edge to Mjd against Ten. I thought AP would play more last week. he might get more touches this week, but they might be willing to let hiim rest again til next season.

Championship game this weekend need help with RB and Flex
Asked in: Frank Gore, Adrian Peterson, Brent Celek

0Anthony Best
think I would go with AP,Bell at Flex. I would go with Robinson. Gore instead of Bell is safe play, but Sea is tough against the run.

A.P or Sproles?
Asked in: Adrian Peterson, Darren Sproles

1Steve Morris
Tough call. Probably go with AP since he should be full speed this week.
