    Good angle. I really typed that post thinking Adrian issues weren't too major. Peterson went too far, but he isn't in the "trouble maker" category.

    So besides spanking his child, the same way he got disciplined as a child. Same way a lot of us who grew up in and before the mid 70's. What else has he done to make him a trouble maker?

    Just curious.

    Critical of Vikings management? (I don't care about that but owners probably want to players to show them deference)

    He's asking for $18 million lmao. That automatically throws Houston out the running.

    LOL yeah, good luck with that. Then again, given that I highly doubt anyone agrees to pay him that much, maybe he'll get more reasonable once he figures that out.

    32 year old running back, with 2500 NFL carries, coming off an injury marred season.

    Not saying I wouldn't like to have him, but high risk doesn't begin to describe what he is at this point. No way I would give him any kind of significant money given we have cap issues, and running back isn't really an area of large concern.

    Some team will take a risk on him still being a bell cow in 2017, and pay him decently. No reason we should be the team to take that risk.

    Yes if price is right. We've got at least another year with Brock so having an elite running game asap should be priority.
