TK,

Brett Favre vs. Packers or Tony Romo Vs. Denver, and why?

My son-in-law is always quick to point out that Emmitt was the best rb in history. Besides his extreme bias, he recites accomplishments and Souper Bowl (C'mon Campbell's, it's right there in front of your ad faces!) victories.
Emmitt won a few fantasy football seasons for me, but I couldn't include him in even the top 5 of all time. He had a great line and offense and he was a great back.
However, I like to judge all time players on their own abilities and how they may have fared without the supporting cast.
John Elway and Jim Brown for me.

Apologies for the hijack Tom

A question to get back on track-

After Adrian Peterson, who would be your top pick if a draft were held today?

I'd go with Romo. I think the Vikings will be able to control this game on the ground and that lessens the chances for Favre to air it out a lot. I think Peterson has a big game Monday night. Romo has been shaky but I'm not a firm believer in the Broncos just yet and I think he can move the ball on them through the air.

OK, I'll be back at 2 pm ET for more questions. Be here and we'll have some fun this afternoon.

Tom,

There was a lot of talk about this is the year to take two (three?) WR first then worry about RB. Did you feel that way and if so, do you still think it would have been a wise strategy (accepting of course how early it still is)?

Tom,

Earlier you mention AP and MDJ were you one and two. Where would you place Chris Johnson on you list of top RB especially looking forward to his facing middling to weak run defenses looking forward like Jacksonville (2), Buffalo, Indy (2), Green Bay, San Diego, St. Louis, Carolina, TB, and Houston?
