I agree (time to draft Peterson)...but if they're going to pass on him, I hope they trade out of the spot.

The situation is a pretty good one for peterson in AZ from a workload standpoint, IMO.

Peterson isn't going to last long in the NFL. I don't want us to waste a #5 pick on a player who'll only have a few good years.

edge could use the help, as we saw last season. AP would be a great pick if the cards can get better productivity out of their OL. Peterson is the real thing. The injuries are concerning, but with edge the cards don't have to give him 30 carries a game like OU did.

Adams will go to TB w/ next pick. Trade down and get a blocker.
who is going to trade up at this point though. If quinn keeps falling.....he may fall to miami @ 9. I don't know that we will see a trade unless it involves the bears and skins.

We will be disappointed in 5 years if we do not pick AP. Mark this post. Edge is 29 and his days are almost numbered so we need to get the next RB NOW. Brown just does not do anything for me in regards to the O-Line.....

DRAFT AP

Once again it's just not the time to draft a RB at #5. Fair enough that AP (or AD for all of you that want him) is a significant upgrade over our backup RB or bumps Edge down to back-up (again an upgrade). But whatever he is the marginal returns for a backup runningback upgradethe next three years will not be worth paying out the kind of money we will have to or neglect another position.

Obviously having Thomas gone change a lot, but Brown, Landry, and Willis offer the most marginal returns over the next three years. Brown and Landry could be had at 3-4 slots lower than we have now.

the Bidwills would have a Super Bowl trophy in the case this season if AD was drafted.
