Four Vikings in Sportsline Top 50
Pete Prisco of CBS Sportsline really likes the Vikings. He placed four members of the Purple in his rankings of the Top 50 players in the NFL. Actually, the four all placed in the top 20. You can probably guess the names. Here’s the complete top 20 with the Vikes in bold:
- Tom Brady
- Peyton Manning
- LaDainian Tomlinson (I’m assuming this is regular season only)
- Randy Moss
- Champ Bailey
- Mario Williams (yeah, picking him over Reggie Bush was a real mistake)
- Bob Sanders
- Carson Palmer
- DeMarcus Ware
- Kevin Williams
- Shawne Merriman (still has whiplash from AD running by him)
- Jared Allen
- Terrell Owens
- Albert Haynesworth
- Adrian Peterson
- Walter Jones
- Ben Roethlisberger
- Charles Woodson
- Steve Hutchinson
- Brian Westbrook
So we know where we’re good – defensive line and running game. Pete Prisco and Dr. Z are official Friends of the Purple.
Hmm… No Pat?

June 29th, 2008 at 1:59 pmi’m a cowboy fan and not an eagles fan by any means…..hate em…..but not to have westbrook in the top 10 is a crime
June 29th, 2008 at 2:38 pmAgree Dave, Westbrook is in the top 5 of my fantasy picks. He is consistant and makes his offense look good even when they are playing bad. How bout he and AP in the Vikes backfield?! We’ll see’m paired in yhr Pro Bowl
June 30th, 2008 at 8:53 pmHey Aaron-get your invite to the fantasy league? Get signed up pal
PS Flying home for Christmas so if I get tickets I’ll see the Vikes 3 times this year
