Adrian Peterson's current trade value (1 Viewer)

In my re-draft league; I traded Peterson straight up for Marvin Harrison. He was my RB3 behind Parker and T.Henry and I needed WR Help. The original Marvin owner has been frustrated with McCallister and wanted to pair LT up with a better back. Deal worked out good for both of us in my opinion.

In my keeper league I am trying to acquire him by offering Peyton Manning, to pair him with LJ. Right now im running with J.Jones or Fred Taylor with LJ and obviously its been frustrating thus far.

 
Ive offered him for JWalker, Fitzgerald, Colston, and even Megatron. All have been rejected so far. In all deals Im asking for a RB2 type back in return (either Deuce, Benson, or Lynch).

Wow. I own ADP and would trade him in a heartbeat for a top 5 WR. I imagine you made this trade after week 1, not week 2?

Agreed. Im not seeing that kind of value for a RB2 right now especially with Taylor eventually ocming back.
 
Small 8 man redraft. TD only start 2 RB's 3 WR's. I moved him for Boldin. Needed a 3rd WR and had massive RB depth. Classic win/win trade.

 
Thanks folks. I thought I had a trade done for him, was offering AP, Santonio Holmes and Jamal Lewis for Marvin Harison. I got shot down. I'm hoping for a big week this weeend!!
:lmao: No offense, but be careful not to trade just for the "action". That was a lot to give for Harrison...
 
PPR league - owner is offering me Reggie Bush for Adrian Peterson. Very tempting to grab Bush (tee hee) before this Monday night's game. I don't see Peterson having a great outing this weekend, not that I make trades based on one week's games.

I know he gave up Harrison, but that LT-Peterson combo is going ot be dangerous this year. I was lucky enough to get the #1 pick in one league and I scored LT, Wayne and Peterson with the first 3 picks. Looking across a few of my leagues, that seems to be a very popular pick for LT owners - LT first, a stud WR (Wayne, Harrison, TO, Chad Johnson), and then a RB2 at 3.01. Those of us who gambled of Peterson are looking good so far... and the thing is, the next turn usually had guys like Andre Johnson, Lee Evans, Randy Moss, Plax....Ouch.... once LT gets on track, that's going to be an unstoppable lineup.
 
For what it's worth. After his big game against Atlanta in week 1, I traded Adrian and Boldin for Steve Smith and Norwood. Kind of regretting it as my starting RBs are busts so far. SJax, MJD

 
i've had him on the block for a week...one offer - santonio holmes. the guys also had fitz, who i countered for. rejected with no counter. :lmao:

 
I just traded for AP today. The deal was I give Fitzgerald for both AP and Santana Moss. I have Ahman as my RB#2 and I dont have a number three so I had to make this move. Oh yeah my RB1 is Westbrook who is injury prone.

I think Peterson is going to get traded in a ton of leagues because everyone sees his value as being different. Some see him as a borderline RB1 and others see him as an RB3. This garbage of worrying about Taylor should not affect your judgement when trading this STUD.

interesting trade, as i have moss as well. i was just hoping to keep him as my #3 and trade peterson straight up for a #2. seems like you paid a lot for fitz, especially considering recent production, but to your point, everyone seems to have a different idea of what peterson is worth.

I disagree. He's in a redraft league. Without or especially with PPR, Harrison is a top 15-20 player. As talented as Peterson is, you can't bank that he'll produce like that this year, let alone this year in a RBBC.

I was looking at the previous Harrison straight up trade. I didn't notice that quote referenced a different trade.
 
In my redraft league A-Pete and Matt Leinart were traded for MJD and Eli Manning. The other owner gave up early on MJD in my opinion!

Then the idiot turned around and traded Matt Leinart for the GB DEF! What a guppy!

 
Was offered Larry Johnson + Battle for AD + Calvin. (Dynasty league) Declined.

I wouldn't deal AD for Johnson straight up. To be honest, I don't know that LJ will be that superior THIS year with Huard and likely transition to Croyle.

I guess AD doesnt have much value in my league cuz the only offer I got for him was Boldin straight up.After I declined numerous people in my league asked me why I declined it and said that was probably the best offer I was gonna get. I said oh well then Ill hold onto him.

I think he's worth more than Fitz. I passed up Fitz for AP. Then again, it's a two player keeper and I could see AP becoming one of my 2 keepers very easily next year, which greatly ups his value. Still, even in redrafts I just don't like Lineart enough to do that move...As for the Santonio Holmes offer, I would have spit in that guys' face.

Honestly, seems ridiculous to me. Having faith in the guy with superior talent (always a good bet), AD will prove them foolish. In addition, Lineart is simply not impressive this year thus far and I question his arm strength and ability to get the ball to both Boldin and Fitz consistently.

You need to find new people in your league then. Or stop caring what they think.Leinart hasn't been very impressive thus far to boot. Last I looked AD is probably in the Top 10 RB's right now. I don't happen to think that will change much when Chester returns either (they will get the ball in the hands of their 2 best players).

That's what I'm seeing in my league. In my 10 team redraft PPR league I have SJax, Portis, MBIII, Peterson, and K Jones. So I was offering Peterson & MBIII around this week for a WR or TE. No dice - I couldn't even get Heap for Peterson! I was willing to overpay if that's what it took to upgrade my starting lineup rather than sit on this over-abundance of RB's. Instead I just got accused of trying to "sell high" on my "2 week wonders"... :thumbup: I'd love to get a top 5 WR for him, but that just isn't happening.

After this week I think you should be able to pick what receiver you want. Anyone trading him has to be absolutely stacked to do it though. I don't think I could personally trade him because his ceiling is so high.

Doubt it. In my league, the perception is that when Taylor comes back they will split carries. I literally argued with a league member today that that was ridiculous. He thought I was crazy for turning down Boldin and after today he abused me even more. I said Im not trading Peterson unless I get a top WR and ok RB in return. he thought I was nuts and that I would never get that. You also gotta remember that if you trade Peterson for a top 5 WR that guy is gonna want a good WR in return or hes gonna have another huge hole in his lineup.
 
You should be able to get better Wr's than those two. I would go for one of the Colts at least. This is a young stud RB that is totaled 150 and a td on the road against a good d.

Totally agree with you... in theory. But the reality of my league is much like shadyridr's (and probably a lot of other people's leagues as well). Owner's are very slow to adjust a player's value from what they thought of him pre-draft no matter what the stats show. I got Peterson in the 6th rd and any attempts to trade him are simply seen as me trying to sell high on a mid-rounder. And they're too smart to let ole Johnny Ryall pull a fast one on them! :thumbdown: At this point, I'd probably be better off shopping S Jackson or Portis because I'd get more based on the name recognition.
 
If you are going to trade Peterson I am just saying trade him as a late first rounder at best or late second rounder at worst. He was drafted in the 5th in my league because of his potential. Now that he is showing it if he was drafted today he would probably go early second so why take less than that. He has the potential to be top 5. If your league mates don't respect him why should you sell him low unless you aren't buying into his skills yourself. Then again why would you have drafted him.

IMO I would trade Portis in a hot second.

 
Look at his upcoming schedule. ouch

Week 4 GNB -- --

Week 5 < bye > -- --

Week 6 @CHI -- --

Week 7 @DAL -- --

Week 8 PHI -- --

Week 9 SDG -- --

Week 10 @GNB -- --

This is exactly what I'm doing. I've got LT, SJax, Portis, & Peterson on the block right now (LT & SJax in different leagues, Portis/ADP in both). I figure if I'm the only one who has faith in him, so be it. I'll try to get top dollar for one of the other guys, and ride Peterson myself. I've literally had ONE offer over the last week across two leagues. Everyone thinks I'm selling high...ridicurous.
 
shady do what you have to do but when I watch him play I am amazed. THe guy looks awesome.
He's an awesome talent, but his running style also leaves him susceptible to injury. I just don't think he can last an entire season (esp. with the next 5 games being very tough). With that in mind, I would definitely keep ADP and try to buy low Chester Taylor.
 
Do not trade AP unless you get a great return, he's played three great games and the offensive line has only played well in one of them. Not to mention the whole offense has been horrible all three games. If Childress and Bevell ever figure it out or if the passing game becomes respectable, im certain he's a top 5 FF RB.

 
I have Peterson and am holding onto him tightly. He's my #2 RB behind Fast Willie. I remember the other FFB owners making fun of me for picking up AP in the 6th round. Now I do need to get my hands on Chester Taylor this week. His stock is low right now, so I need to pounce on that deal. I have a whole slew of WRs to trade...as well as Jamal Lewis...might be able to do a Chester Taylor and one other player for Jamal Lewis.

Unless someone is trading me Tom Brady for AP, then there is no way I'm accepting any trades.

 
Would you guys trade him for Larry Johnson straight up? Just looking at the schedule posted above, may not be a bad idea. I know the guy in my league is looking hard at moving Johnson and I've been thinking about making this offer.

Redraft = yesDynasty = no
 
Torry Holt was just offered to me in a PPC league. I'm not really in need of WR but even if I was, I couldn't do this deal at this time.

I'd say yes on both counts. Larry is a in the back 9 of his career and in an uncertain situation. AD is a 3 game rookie who looks like a top 10 back right now, despite the fact that he, like Larry, is on a lackluster offense.

So you mean no on both counts? The original poster is asking if he should trade FOR Larry Johnson.I only advocate trading AP for Johnson in a redraft because both RBs have some tough games coming up against decent run Ds, but the difference is that AP is a rookie and LJ is not. I think Larry will turn it around soon.
