<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>25. Adrian Peterson is the kind of player who can turn a franchise around. He'll make QB Tarvaris Jackson that much better and by the end of the year, this may be the best offense in the NFC North.</div>Hmm.. Odd that he says this and then ranks us 25th. I know the NFC North's offenses are not something to rave about, but we have the best offense in the division and improve the pass defense while keeping the run defense as good as last year who says we can't win the north? You never know... I'll reserve judgement on this list until after training camp.
Or until we know what's going with Chester Taylor. Any word on him and what's going to happen with him and Peterson?

They gave him a big contract and told him he had the starting gig, he performs very well and then they draft a rookie to replace him.
That's what I mean. Will he be traded out of his own request, the team's request, or will they use him to mentor Adrian a little. I think he could possibly stay with the team up until the trade deadline depending how Adrian does up until then.

He got very worn out at the end of last year and needed another quality running back to come in and take some of the carries. We didn't have that and that's why we sucked at the end of last year. We now potentially have one of the best 1-2 punches at RB in the league.He won't be traded at all. Why get rid of talent that's on the roster? Adrian will be used like Reggie Bush was last year. Deuce McCallister was fine with reggie bush taking some carries away from him and they did fine together as a duo.

He can be good with a good partner, but not by himself. He didn't even have all that great of a season last year, and his shit play at the end didn't help that much.

If Shaun Alexander can prove he's healthy, and put up numbers closer to what he did in 2005, Seattle could be a bit higher, at least top 10. But out division should be one of the more competitive ones in the league, it's not going to be a cake walk like it's been the past couple seasons.
