Adrian Peterson lands $100 million contract
Vikings agreed to terms with RB Adrian Peterson on a seven-year, $100 million contract.
The biggest deal ever given to a running back includes $36 million in guaranteed money, which is $6 million more than Chris Johnson landed earlier this month. If Peterson makes it through the entire contract (which is unlikely), he'll average $14.3 million per year through 2017. It's an astronomical deal for a running back, but it's hard to argue Peterson, still only 26 years old, hasn't earned it by averaging 1,445 rushing yards and 13.5 touchdowns since coming into the league in 2007. He's coming off his "worst" season, which saw him rush for 1,298 yards while finding the end zone 12 times. Source: ProFootballTalk on Twitter

Best RB in football getting paid the most money - as it should be.
If you can't leave at least a 20% tip, you can't afford to eat out.

The Skipper said it all. I'm sure Gilligan, Thurston Howell, Ginger, Mary Ann, and even the "Professor" would agree...skip wrote:Best RB in football getting paid the most money - as it should be.

Hopefully they develop their current and future O Linemen to protect their investment.
