Answer 2

i would go A.P. but u cant go wrong with L.T.

Answer 3

Adrian peterson Vikings RB

Answer 4

LT. idk bout AD. he had a great rookie yr but idk if he can follow it up. films might figure him out and i dont think his o-line is very consistent. I would say it is a choice between LT or Brian Westbrook (very consistent for the eagles and the top fantasy performer for the eagles).

Answer 5

Easy. No doubt LT, like you thought. Peterson is injury prone while LT has only gotten seriously injured once, last year. Now that he is healthy, he should really be a stud.

Answer 6

Tomlinson. AP, while great will still share carries with Chester Taylor and has been known to get injured from time to time.

Answer 7

LT.  and i think you mean AP, not AD.  but i would go with tomlinson, not andrian peterson because ap has only had 1 year.  LT is proven

Answer 8

LT easily gets the nod over AP because of three basic facts:

1.  LT simply outperformed AP in 2007.  LT put up 302 total fantasy points (using the standard scoring system) while AP only put up 232 fantasy points.  Stats are the name of the game and LT outperformed AP in that category.

2.  LT has been a stud in fantasy football for several concurrent years.  If LT had only produced one great year the argument for AP may be stronger, but LT has proven that year in and year out he will be a fantasy stud.  Until he proves otherwise, you have to expect that he'll dominate.  AP has yet to prove he can produce year after year.

3.  LT loses very few carries to backups while Peterson could lose valuable touches to Chester Taylor.  Taylor stole 157 carries from AP last year while Michael Turner only stole 71 from LT. Again the numbers don't lie.  If you're not running the ball, you're not putting up fantasy points.

AP is the s**y pick this year, but I haven't heard a single argument that would convince me that AP is better than LT.  The numbers don't prove it, the logic doesn't support it, and unless you're in a dynasty league I think you'd be crazy to take AP over LT.

LT is the first pick.

Answer 9

No he means AD.  It's his nickname, short for all-day.  And I would go with AD because of they have the best line in football.  Peterson will only improve, but it seems that the wind could be out of LT.  LT will still be a top RB, but not as elite as he once was.  If healthy, I cannot see AD the NFL's top rusher.

Answer 10

LT, he can run, catch, and throw. and he almost never misses a game. AP has had injury problems in the past. now the defenses will work harder to stop AP because their passing game is soft.

Answer 11

You have to go LT, he has been so consistent. peterson is injured a lot since college and he may suffer a sophmore slump, highly unlikely though. Also he will split carries with Taylor and LT is a better receiver.
