Who's the #1 overall pick in fantasy football this year?

Fantasy Football leagues are about to get started.  Who do you take #1 overall?

I still think it is LaDanian Tomlinson.  He has been a top five RB for six consecutive seasons.  It doesn’t get any more consistent then that (maybe Manning).

I’ve heard a lot of people at my office say that Adrian Peterson would be their #1 pick.  Luckily, they don’t read this blog.  I hope I get the #2 overall pick in that league.  Along with Peterson’s huge upside are some considerable durability issues.  He’s been hurt in the NFL, and he had similar issues at OU.  He had 6 games where he rushed for 50 yards or less.  He is a sure first round pick, but you’d have to be crazy to chose him over LT.
