Adrian Peterson Vs. Brian Westbrook (read the question)

Question

In fantasy football, who is gonna be the better choice and why

i was going to pick AP but he went a pick before me and i have westbrook

i also have jamal lewis, kevin smith from detroit, and fred taylor

would it be worth offering westbrook and taylor for peterson?

Answer 1

No i wouldn't do it you have good depth at rb and I think the deal would hurt you in the long run

Answer 2

Even being a Vikings fan, I would go with Westbrook. He gets more catches and he can get longer runs.

Answer 3

if your league scoring is PPR (point per reception), Westbrook is more consistent week to week.  All Minnesota really has on offense is AP, so defenses are going to target him. Don't get me wrong, AP is still going to be a beast, but there will be weeks where he does not get in the endzone and his held under 100 yds.  Just my opinion...  

Answer 4

No Way, yeah having AP would be cool, but Westbrook always produces, AP does get hurt quite often and Westbrook is ranked higher most the time. Use Taylor as a reserve or trade vaule

Answer 5

I would choose AP. Although AP is injury prone, Brian Westbrook isn't known to be always healthy either. AP has incredible upside. The possibilities are limitless. If you saw personally what he did last year, and how much the coaches say that he has improved on patience, he could be a history maker. With Berrian to keep defenses alert, and AP ready as anything this year, expect great things from him. However, if you are in a points per reception leauge, this would be a harder choice. With the way Westbrook consistently catches balls every week, i would then keep Westbrook.  

Answer 6

Brian Westbrook easily. He is considered a huge weapon with catching like a high end reciever and running like one of the best. Better than AP who didnt even play a full season. and they will stack up the box on minnesota and AP will be the solo target, unlike Brian Westbrook, considering the Eagles have a decent pass offense.
