We don’t know if Hall of Fame wide receiver Jerry Rice actually plays fantasy football. However, his advice to pick Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson at No. 1 is solid.
Despite the fact that the league contains many pass-heavy NFL teams and that Peterson is coming off of a one-year suspension, Rice apparently has no reservations about endorsing the 30-year old running back in fantasy football.
And, while Rice would go for Peterson first, he is not necessarily everyone’s cup of tea when it comes to a first pick in fantasy football. Some folks prefer to snag an elite wide receiver with their first overall pick, while others opt for a top quarterback.
