I am a huge fan of Foster. I talked highly about him last year and said he would have a good year......I'm a blatant liar if I said I thought he would have the year he did, but I saw a lot of good things in him, and his situation. But the thing is just as its a gamble to pick him last year, its a gamble this year. Obviously not nearly as much but when I'm talking about drafting 1st overall, I am going with high upside...and consistency. I gotta go with AP, and I will be going with AP.
I want pick 6 in all leagues because I have AP, Foster, CJ, Jamal, Rice and McCoy as fairly even. I'd be content with any of them as my rb#1, however if I am picking #1 it is Foster. Minnesota is going to struggle offensively and AP will have 8 in the box on every carry. Foster is on a much better offense, I always like that with my RB's.

I agree with half of your post, but I have to disagree with the rest. I agree how I would love to pick at 6 because I rank all 6 of those players the same. I wouldn't be surprised if we see 2 of Charles, McCoy or Rice finish in the top 3. With the addition of McNabb to the Vikings, I doubt teams will stack 8 in the box every play because McNabb can and will beat you through the air if he has too.
I would go with Foster. He was a monster last year. He played hurt as well. If the hamstring is not to bad I would go with him. If it bothers him to bad then I would go Peterson.Good luck with your season.
