It's been 'all good' for Vikings RB Adrian Peterson, who looks 'as fast as ever'

It’s been all good for Vikings RB Adrian Peterson in Mankato. He looks as fast as ever and has a rare combination of leanness and power. Peterson is catching the ball well and rarely has gaffes during pass protection drills.

Fantasy Impact: 

Throwing out his one-game season in 2014, Peterson never finished outside of the top 6 on a per game basis in standard formats (or outside the top 11 in PPR) in his previous seven seasons. He's now on the wrong side of 30, but his legs should be fresh after taking a full season off to deal with his criminal case. OC Norv Turner has a history of feeding the ball to his top running back; LaDainian Tomlinson averaged 20.9 touches per game from 2007-09 while he and Turner were in San Diego. That included 2.86 receptions per game, which would represent a career high 45-46 receptions for Peterson if he catches the ball at the same rate.
