Spoken from experience:Collarbones do not get "thicker" when broken, per se'; but when they heal, the two parts of the bone generally heal with an overlap as opposed to healing flush. The result is generally the same bone strength, but a significant loss in range of motion. Not generally an issue for a RB. (nor I, as it was my off shoulder.)Hope this helps.

Someone missed out on drafting A-Pete in his dynasty league...LT yesterday, in a 25-point win. 18 touches, 91 total yards, 0 TDs.He sucks too.

:XThere were about 10 threads last week claiming he was god. Just wondering where all the hype went too.Figured there would be at least 3 threads talking about his HALF OF FAME TALENT now that he beat out Taylor for the starting job.Someone missed out on drafting A-Pete in his dynasty league...LT yesterday, in a 25-point win. 18 touches, 91 total yards, 0 TDs.He sucks too.

I just love the extreme overreaction of this bored. AP has a big week and he is already in Canton. This week he does nothing and there isn't a word about him.BTW... how long till the first Ryan Grant is a stud thread? I mean 17 carries for 98 yards is HOF caliber numbers!You seem to be taking it personally that AP clearly has HALL OF FAME TALENT.Why is that?Someone missed out on drafting A-Pete in his dynasty league...LT yesterday, in a 25-point win. 18 touches, 91 total yards, 0 TDs.

Edit: Nevermind... he is a uber-stud because he has picked up 100 yards against the worst run D in the league.

Nothing? Once again he rushed for more yards than the entire opposing team.He leads the league in rushing yards. He leads the league in yards per game. He leads the league in yards per carry. He's tied for third in rushing TDs. He is already the single game record holder for rushing yards in Minnesota. And his total yardage against the Bears was the third highest of all time. All on one of the most anaemic offenses in the NFL.I just love the extreme overreaction of this bored. AP has a big week and he is already in Canton.

LT averaged over 5ypc. ADP had 3.5 ypc. Let's see if this unproven rookie starts wearing himself out...Someone missed out on drafting A-Pete in his dynasty league...LT yesterday, in a 25-point win. 18 touches, 91 total yards, 0 TDs.He sucks too.

LT has a passing game that garners at least some attention of the defense.LT averaged over 5ypc. ADP had 3.5 ypc.

Great quote this week in the USA Today Sports Weekly's Fantasy Football rankings section:
Adrian Peterson: "The Vikings are doing a good job keeping his numbers down, but you have to start him every week."

ADP is still leading the league in rushing no? I think he breaks one or two off this week.
Prediction: 19 carries, 164 yards, 2 tds - 3 rec. 41 yards.

He will be facing a running back this week who is averaging more yards per carry (both for this season and his career).
Scrub. He can't even break into the starting line-up.
Same with Peterson until last week.

Impossible. That would require play the entire game and getting a moderate level of carries. Childress isn't going to be that dumb...LT averaged over 5ypc. ADP had 3.5 ypc.

Sorry, we're out celebrating the single best rushing performance in NFL history in a player's 8th professional game.

I really have to thank the shark pool for my drafting of ADP at 1.09 in my 2 man keeper league. Even though the consensus ADP didn't say to take ADP I took ADP and am very happy to have ADP for what is hopefully (barring injury) years to come. I felt ADP was the real deal and a lot of SP guys touted him as well so I forewent ADP for ADP. Thankfully I also witnessed his stellar performance in the Boise State bowl game coupled with his spin move in the preseason game against the Jets so I had some history on him. Sorry to brag, I know this is the wrong thread. ADP rocks.

I had him on 200 combined and 2 touchdowns today, earlier in this thread. I guess I was off by quite a bit.
