Why is Peterson so undervalued


He's still in the top 5. It's not like ppl have Peterson out of the RB10 discussion. I'm not sure why you say SO undervalued. The guy is a beast no doubt

Better offense and more explosive at this point of their careers. Plus if the Vikings sick there's always the threat of Peterson being shut down during the fantasy playoffs.

Can't figure that out either. PPR or non-PPR, doesn't matter to me; AP is still my #1. Whether people want to admit it or not, Sproles will have an impact on McCoy's numbers from last season. Especially in PPR format. Will it be huge, doubt it. But it has a chance to be enough that I would take not only AP, but Charles as well, ahead of McCoy this season.

I dk but I will happily take Peterson if he falls to wherever I am in the draft (including #1)

AP is my #1 this year...Him and Rashad Jennings are the two I've been sucking off the most on this board so far

Reasons:

Highest ceiling out of any of the RBs and you cannot deny that. The dude had 2000+ rush yards less than a year after an ACL tear.

Highest floor- while JC and McCoy are unlikely to bust, a shitty season for AP is 1200yds and 10 TDs.

New coach that loves to force feed RBs (See LT circa San Diego). I'd say anyone who knows football will agree that AP has more talent that LT. In addition, this new coach is responsible for having his RBs catch over 50 balls/season.

Peterson is a very underrated pass catcher as is.

Not saying JC or McCoy are going to be terrible, but I like the low risk, high reward with AP...added to that the coaching addition. Peterson is my 1a with Mccoy and my 1b.
