The Saints May Get A Transcendental RB After All...

The thought of homegrown talent Leonard Fournette to any team other than the Saints must be disheartening for any of those fans. However, they may be getting a nice consolation prize instead.

Instead of getting the next Adrian Peterson, looks like they may be getting the actual one.

 
He's old and injury prone, but a change of scenery may prolong his career. Still a threat any way you look at it, and the Saints o-line is actually better than the Vikings.

Thoughts?

He has always been a victim of the stacked box and he has recently been a victim of shotgun runs. This move would solve both of those problems and would certainly be better for him than playing for the Vikings.  I think we do relatively well against power backs but go ahead and put me in the camp that says Peterson is not done putting up good numbers. In the right situation (like the giants - which oddly doesn't seem to be in play), he is still a top 10 back.

youall know it would be a good move for them and deep down wether your coucious of it or not it bothers you they got him. (if they get him)

 

Im usually one to mirror this sentiment, but AP isn't clutch. At all. Period. 

I'm more bothered that they have Ginn than AP.

Plus as others have mentioned, we've historically OWNED AP.

    • lol wut?  Stats dont matter now?  Got it
    • So.... you're admitting he's never going to be the type of QB who can drag his team to victories on a consistent basis? Because in today's NFL, the teams that are constant contenders have QB's who can put up those kind of games will their team to wins when needed. If Bryce was anything near as amazing last year as the Bryce defenders try to insinuate he was, we'd either have won more games or his stats would have been better, if not both. Yes, he showed significant improvement over the last 2 months of the season.  Yes, he had a few clutch  moments/throws/drives in that span too. BUT... It's also very much a true statement that on the whole, he was still AT BEST an average QB during that time period.   And for a QB who was touted as being a PG who can get wins without elite talent around him because of how he sees the game, that's just not good enough, sorry. And none of that is to say he can't do that this year, especially after we gave him a weapon like T-Mac and hopefully an improved XL and Coker.  But stop trying to say he was this amazing QB to end the year who has proven he can (and should) be considered a long term solution as a franchise QB, as it's just not true.
    • In what way is that remotely the same thing as I'm saying here? First things first, comparing QB's to any other position is just asinine to begin with.   Second, you're trying to imply the exact opposite of what I'm saying here, so it just doesn't make sense. I'm saying if you remove the players that teams haven't committed to as their long term QB solutions yet, Bryce is the last player ranked in this set of rankings, that's all.  But sure, go ahead and try to make some weird convoluted equivalent for my love of T-Mac (who btw, you'd probably only need to take away 12-15 WRs for me to rank T-Mac #1 in a dynasty format, just sayin, lol)
