Thread: The Definitive Word?

Has anyone heard the definitive wrod on A. Peterson's health?

Leading up to the draft, we heard "He's fine."

Then we heard "Needs surgery."

Then yeseterday I heard "He's at 80% and will be fine in 6 weeks."

His health is obviously his biggest problem and I'm sure I"m not the only one worried about it. Does anyone have a link with a "real" opinion and not just one from some tool sportswriter?

Is that a no?

I dont think his overall health in terms of the future is a concern at all.As it stands he didnt re-break his collarbone or nothing of that magnitutude.He simply re-agrivaited it in the Fiesta Bowl.His break was more of a freak accident then a hit to the chest type of deal.I'm not concerened what so ever at this point.

if he's out for a while its no big deal, we've got CT who would have been starting anyway

Thats ok if he needs time.
He should be brought along slowly anyways.
He will be most needed later in the year when chester needs some reps taken off his load.
Dont get me wrong though, the sooner he is ready to roll the better, we NEED him to be a playmaker this season.

There is something obviosly wrong with his shoulder. Its more a matter of if he can stay healthy with it IMHO

FRANCHISE PLAYER

CAN YOU SAY ERIC DICKERSON?

He's fine.
Mel Kiper had the Vikes draft rated #1

No pun intended?
