Re: NFL Network - How Could Any Team Have Passed on Peterson in the 07 Draft?
I didn't look it up, but I bet Schefter was one of those talking heads who were saying on draft day that Peterson was too fragile to play at the NFL level. There was LOTS of concern about his many injuries.
A lot of teams, including Washington, would be glad to have Peterson, but at the time, we had a plan for the defense and it involved LaRon Landry. The way things turned out, we need Landry a lot more than we need Peterson right now.
I'll go on record, though, and say Peterson should be the first player you take in next season's fantasy draft. If Schefter said that, it would have been an intelligent thing to say.
