		<description>Two things.

One, I started the busts by saying that it is based on his draft position, not his talent.  He is a great running back, I just don't think he is worth the number one or two pick in your drafts.

Two, He had two great games of 224 and 296 yards, true.  Can't take that away from him.  But how about the 14 carry, 3 yard game he had against the 49ers, not exactly the Monsters of the Midway.  What about the 11 carry, 45 yard game against the Packers?  He is a home run hitter, but has plenty of duds.  10 of his 12 touchdowns came in just four games.  That means he scored 2 other times over 12 games, and that's not great.  Also, six times he rushed for less than 70 yards.  

It was one good year, let's see what this season brings.  I just wouldn't draft him in the top 2.</description>

		<description>Adrian Peterson, a BUST? Are you serious? Let me take you through some games last season. Bears and Chargers games last season, with some QB playing for Vikes. Do you know how hard is it to run the ball without having a good QB playing for your team? 

How many rushing yards did he have in both of those games? 224 and 296 yards. When was the last time a ROOKIE comes along and have two 200  yards game? Are you scratching your head yet? AD is a special talent....You don't put him with others in a category......He's unique.......Before NFL draft, everyone said this guy is risky...hez tooo injury-prone....Now, every team that passed on him is kicking their butt......Don't skip in your fantasy football draft....You'll do the same like those NFL teams...</description>
