After tearing his left ACL on Dec. 24, Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson was seemingly a long shot to even play in the majority of games during the 2012 season. But Peterson's rehab has been coming along smoothly, he has impressed in workouts with teammates, and now he is saying that he could be ready for training camp.
"To be honest with you I feel like 50-50," Peterson said. "I feel like honestly, sitting here telling you the truth, I'll be able to participate doing certain things. I think I'll be able to participate."

Fantasy Analysis:

Of course, Adrian is going to push himself. But hopefully Vikings trainers and coaches have the reins on him and make sure that he understands that the most important time for him to be healthy is the regular season. As I've said throughout this process, I worry about how Adrian Peterson can come back to being Adrian Peterson after a major knee injury so quickly, especially considering his physical, bull-like running style. Toby Gerhart should be on your must-draft list if you get Peterson. Granted, Gerhart is coming off of an MCL tear.
