AP OUT FOR AT LEAST ONE GAME
September 14 , 2014

AP turned himself into police and was indicted on charges of causing injury to a child.  With the recent Ray Rice issue, this is not good news for AP owners.  Chances are that the NFL will come down extra hard on AP because of the recent abuse cases happening within the NFL.  There is a great chance that AP will get a legnthy suspension from the NFL for this incident, so fantasy owners beware.  You can roll the dice on Matt Asiata or rookie Jerick McKinnon to step in and pick up the carries, but it might be best to target a better option.  

But, if you happen to own Corderelle Patterson, you're probably a happy camper.  Expect the Vikings to include Patterson in the rushing gameplan even more with AP out.  If you need a last minute replacement for AP, consider Jonathan Stewart because of the DeAngelo Williams injury.  Williams is questionable, and even if he is a go, Stewart will still most likely have more carries.  I'm not expecting a 100+ yard effort out of Stewart as a replacement, but scoring a TD is a decent possibility.  Stewart is available in most leagues and might be your best answer to start at RB from the waiver wire this week.
