Any thoughts  on Adrian Peterson?

He's a good player (although somewhat undersized) but he's shown last year that he can't be good without a QB to take some pressure off.  Either he's got to have a decent O-line or a good QB in order for him to be great or he'll have to learn to run upfield better than he has in the past.  He's still young though and it takes time to do all of this.  He'll be a fine player.

I don't know, I didn't really see a whole lot of greatness from him in college. Of course he had numbers, he also had Reggie Bush, Lendale White, Dwayne Jarrett, Steve Smith, and one of the best offensive lines in the country. He was in a good system. \n\nHe doesn't have that strong of an arm but he was pretty accurate. He is also questionable with his commitment. You heard about his involvement with Paris Hilton and he hangs out with celebrities all the time. Hey, so would I, but that's not really in the best interest of the Arizona Cardinals. \n\nHe could be good, he has some weapons in Arizona with the signing of Edgerrin James and some great wideouts, but that franchise hasn't had a history of winning, losing is contageous, and I expect it to continue.

I loved him at kansas st. \n\nunfortuantly he only has a future at KR and PR in the NFL \n(chargers are too deep at RB)

Absolutely!!!  I have never seen a player who analyzes and dissects a defense like he does!! I've been watching NFL football for 33 years, and he's THE (not one of the but THE) best Quarterback I have ever seen (Yes, I believe he is better then Elway, Marino, Montana, Farve, Simms, Aikman, and Young).

A healthy rookie RB playing behind an experienced line on a team that has such a passing threat is bound to do well.  Not to take anything away from him, but we'll need a few more seasons out of him to figure out what he really is.  For now, he's a rookie and the opposing teams have not yet had a chance to see him in action and account for the way he runs.

Not a bad choice.  I think it will either be him or Vernon Davis in San Fran.  Davis his an absolute freak, and chances are he will be Alex Smith's favorite target.  Vernon should be a starter right away so I think his numbers will be pretty attractive.  But if any thing happens to Deshawn Foster, DeAngelo could be the man out in Carolina.  My chose for defensive rookie of the year by the way is Antonio Cromartie.

Not Yet...........\n\nOf course, I am a huge Bears fan.\n\nI would put Barry Sanders right there at 1 A ....if not the best ever.\nHe played the game with as much respect and dignity as Walter did.\nEmmit Smith, while a great running back (and evidently a good dancer) and deserving to be mentioned as one of the best, is not in the top 3-4.\n\n\n1. Walter Payton\n1-A. Barry Sanders\n2. Jim Brown\n3. Gayle Sayers\n4. Earl Campbell\n5. O.J. Simpson  JERK - OFF\n\nLet the hateful arguments begin............\n\nTime will tell with all of these 'new' guys. Please.... lets wait to see if they will be the "next"  Payton, Brown, Sanders....\n\nI would like to see more of the respect that La Dainian Tomlinson displays from more of his colleagues these days.\n\nIf a running back today shows me that he would rather hit a potential tackler (like Walter Payton did), than go out of bounds unless time is a factor, then we will talk about who may be worthy of mention with these giants..........\n\nOh, to have seen what Gayle Sayers and Bo Jackson could have done if they could have stayed healthy.....

Matt Leinart--he is more ready to be an NFL quarterback, based on his work ethic, smarts, and ability to read defenses.  \n\nWhy not to take Vince Young:\n1) mechanics are terrible\n2) shotgun QB--offenses in the NFL don't do this, Alex Smith was the latest shotgun QB to come out, and look how he's doing.  i want to see him take 3 and 4 step drops and consistently hit guys on 15 -20 yard outs.\n3) his athleticism hurts him--he tries to be like michael vick, but he's not NEARLY the athlete vick is.  he won't be able to run in the NFL like he did in college.  his coach in college, Mack Brown, said "he does better when we stop coaching him and let his athleticism take over".  bad news if you're an NFL coach looking to teach a young guy the basics of the NFL game.\n4) he's a coward--he is the QB with the most skepticism about him in the draft, and he refused to work out at the combine.  rather he held his own workout, at his own field, with his own receivers.  that's not a good sign for me if i'm a scout looking to see VY compared to everyone else in the draft\n5) he's a dunce--scoring a 6 and a 16 on the Wonderlic exam.  i realize intelligence isn't everything, but it is the way the game is shifting.  look at the QB's to make the playoffs last season: Manning, Palmer, Brady, Roethlisberger, Leftwich, Plummer, Hasselbeck, Delhomme, Simms, Brunell, Manning, Grossman.  All intelligent, drop-back passers.  VY's type of QB is not a winning type in the league.\n\nFor all of those reasons, you almost have to choose AGAINST Vince rather than choose FOR someone else.  \n\nand for all the Young-lovers, get over the Rose Bowl performance (against a swiss cheese USC D), and accept that he will STRUGGLE in the NFL.  this is big boy football now...

He has all the tools it takes to survive as an NFL QB, and he's surrounded by a great host of players.  I think that he still has quite a bit to learn as far as managing a game, but he'll get better at it as he experiences different scenarios.  He fires the ball in there, but his accuracy is questionable at times, but he throws well on the run.  He sees the field like Matt Hasselback, and has the escape ability of a younger Brett Farve.  If he stays around all the talent that he's around right now, he'll become a pro-bowler in 2-3 years.\n\nI'm not basing all of this on last weeks game against the Panthers.  I'm basing it on mostly on what I've seen from him in the pre-season and what Parcels thinks of him.

Absolutely!  The thing that makes him a valuable fantasy player is that he plays on 3rd down.  He'll catch passes and rack up receiving yards.  His durability is a major plus too.  He has stayed pretty healthy for his career.  He's maybe not a first rounder (Larry Johnson and L. Tomlinson), but definitely a high pick.

Braylon Edward no question. He was not only one of the best recievers in college history, he has done great all year. I bet he has more yards than Johnson right now. Check NFL.com if you dont believe me.

Dude, How about Drew Brees? I am from Southern Michigan... that means Purdue got a ton of coverage here, campus is just over 2 hours from my house!\n\nHe did excellent for the chargers I thought, but what he has done the past 5 weeks since the week 7 bye week is insane! Last 5 games 1,954 yards 11TDs 67% completion. The only knock on this is he went 2-3 during this period. Obviously not all his fault! How many times has a QB thrown over 500yards in one game and lost that game? NO will have to iron out a few bugs defensively and special teams wise but they have definitely turned things around!

Did you read the article on ESPN about him? He's got AMAZING pull at Auburn, almost scary and probably unhealthy.

He's young. I think he has a good future. Probably like Anthony Wright - good starter but probable backup for life. I think he's going in the top ten but I'd get him in the early 2nd.
763834
Yeah, that's pretty impressive. I think it's really interesting that he threw for more yards and TDs in his freshman year than in his senior year. The best stat there is the 5 picks, that's simply amazing.

While his shoulder may be suspect, I am still not sold on his skills.  The last two years Brees is not the only reason for the Chargers susccess.  He is one part of a great triad including LT and Antonio Gates.\n\nLT is the best active RB.  This made Brees' job much simpler.  Antonio Gates is either #1 or #2 as far as TE. A QBs best friend is not their line it is their TE.  If you have a great TE who the QB can dump passes off to then you are set.  Broken plays? No problem, just dump the pass to Antonio or LT on a swing route.\n\nThis will be a huge test for Drew because New Orleans does not have the talent.  That said, I don't blame Drew for jumping ship and I don't blame N.O. for taking him.  He should at least make them competative.

No.  He is such an intrigueing prospect.  Someone will draft him high or trade up to draft him.  Besides, McNabb got like a 12 on that test and Dan Marino got like a 13.  That test is no good anyway.
