d3m Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 Yes, it's still preseason - but I'm SO happy I took AP with the #1 pick!! Didn't understand all the MJD talk.. Â AP is the #1 pick in Non PPR leagues. MJD/Forte are backs who gain a lot in PPR leagues, but AP could still outscore them - its just harder when he doesn't catch all that much.

Â edit: He was 7th and only 2.76 points per week out of the #1 slot...or about 7 catches 70 recvng yards and 5 TDs more for the season Edited September 1, 2009 by keggerz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â I realize the thought process of him being the "consensus" #1, but it's not a slam dunk pick compared to someone like LT in his prime.

tazinib1 Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 I had the #1 pick this year for the first time in..oh 4-5 years and I took AP without HESITATION in a PPR league. Many guys asked me why? Why not MJD? Forte? Cause, I said, AP is proven. What can you tell me about those other guys previous to last year. Silence. Â Thank you.

LT was special that is for sure but with all the questions surrounding the other "top" RBs I think he is that much of a slam dunk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d3m Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 If Favre stays healthy it would be the first year that AP has had a decent QB. You don't think this would diminish his touches at all? Favre likes to look downfield (and throw the INT). I don't think hes the sure thing everyone thinks he is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Gotta love how one play can make you feel like such a winner. I'm, still taking MJD in PPR but ADP is right with him and could very well finish as the #1 overall RB in PPR leagues (which he hasn't been able to do yet).

I don't know what to think about him this year and hes in my flex spot.   Berrian on the sidelines ... again August 31, 2009 8:14 PM  Posted by ESPN.com's Kevin Seifert  HOUSTON -- As it turns out, Minnesota receiver Bernard Berrian won't be playing in this game. He was in uniform and participated in pregame warmups, but he was in street clothes when the Vikings returned from the locker room for the national anthem.  Berrian is dealing with a hamstring injury, and his absence normally wouldn't be a big deal. But now, he won't get any preseason work with new quarterback Brett Favre unless they both play in Friday's preseason finale at the Metrodome. Coach Brad Childress has rested his starters for that game in each of the past two seasons.  Of course it might not matter if the Vikings start games off the way they did here. For those who aren't watching, tailback Adrian Peterson took the first play from scrimmage 75 yards for a touchdown.
