Open Field Report

My fellow Aries brother Adrian Peterson has signed with the Washington Redskins. Their backfield was pretty thin, and the organization back was against the wall. I think out of all the free agent running backs out there, they sign the best option. He is 33 years old, but in my opinion he still plenty to offer. He missed the 2014 and 2016 season “BASICALLY”, and showed flashes of brilliance in his stint in Arizona. I know his yards-per-carry won't really scream at you, but you have to understand it was the Arizona Cardinals that he was running for. We know the history of running backs for this organization, and it is not exactly stellar. Outside of David Johnson, Chris Johnson Edgerrin James and Emmitt Smith all average under 4 yards per carry during their tenure as Cardinals. And, yes, they were near the tail of their careers, the furthest along being Smith, but managed to put up decent numbers for a team not known for being the best for running backs.

I'm certain he, as well as you and I growing up, wouldn't have envisioned him making that kind of money. [That is based off a business decision].

Mack has accumulated 40.5 Sacks his first 4 seasons with the Raiders, which means his production has earned him a nice pay raise and long term contract. Oakland struggled defensively the last season, where they finished near the bottom of the league (5 int
