Never compare Richardson to Peterson. Peterson ran for 2,000 yards with Christian Ponder as his qb.




Richardon is overrated by most people because of his college days. In order to justify a first round pick as a running back, you have to be elite. He's not elite. He's good sure, but a 1st round pick for him is a good deal for the Browns. They should have never wasted a top-10 pick on him in the first place.


I'm sure he'll end up being fine, but he's not going to do anything that will significantly separate himself from a committee of runningbacks. Hell the combination of Ingram and Pierre Thomas outperformed him last year and Ingram is the worst running back in the league.



eta - and I've never called him a bust. He was a reach though.

You sir, are butt hurt. I'll compare whoever I want tough guy. My point is valid, your QB comparison is irrelevant. MIN has a much better O-line, had Percy Harvin and all around better team. Of curse AP is a better back, it does not even have to be said. I stand by my statement.
