Cris Carter suggests an Adrian Peterson trade is coming

The Vikings continue to insist that Adrian Peterson will not be traded. Not everyone believes them.

Cris Carter, the Hall of Fame former Vikings receiver who now works as an ESPN commentator, suggested today on Mike & Mikethat he has been given inside information about a Peterson trade.

“I’m under gag order on the Adrian Peterson situation, but I believe something’s gonna happen,” Carter said. “But I can’t talk about it.”

It’s a bit odd that Carter would choose to talk about something that he “can’t talk about” because he’s “under gag order,” but that’s what Carter said, and Carter presumably still has some relationships with people in Minnesota. Which suggests that it’s possible Carter knows that privately, the Vikings are more open to trading Peterson than they’re indicating publicly.

Still, this sounds like a long shot. The Vikings reportedly want a huge bounty if they’re going to part with Peterson, and there have been no reports of another team stepping to the plate with that kind of deal. Carter is in a minority in thinking anything is going to happen other than Peterson staying in Minnesota.

For being on a "gag order" he sure is talking up a storm. More likely he is talking out of his rear end.

Giving up a 1st and other picks, plus a starting cb for a 30 year old rb not improvement. When we need our picks for d.

Hey, if that's the true asking price, I'm right there with ya!

Is that your sole sticking point? That you believe it would cost that much?
