Peterson wants more catches: The Pioneer Press in Minnesota reports Vikings RB Adrian Peterson said he is in optimal shape and plans to continue to work out over the next month and a half. He said one thing he has focused on is catching the ball, something he wasn't called upon to do much at Oklahoma or in high school. "I can probably count them on one hand," Peterson said. Peterson caught 19 passes for 268 yards and one touchdown as a rookie last season. (Updated 06/17/2008).
Injury Report
No information available at this time (Updated 7/26/08).
Fantasy Analysis
Peterson already is an elite running back and will be one of the first players taken in all drafts. If he adds catching the ball to his already impressive skill set he would be even more dangerous. Expect another outstanding season from Peterson. (Updated 06/17/2008).
