ESPN's Todd McShay published his, team by team, look at which rookies will make an impact in the NFC in 2007. He predicted Detroit Lions WR Calvin Johnson will be a stud and Minnesota Vikings RB Adrian Peterson will be the offensive rookie of the year.
Fantasy Prognosis: I personally think Peterson will struggle in a one dimensional offense where he'll share carries with incumbent starter Chester Taylor. Watch for Green Bay rookie RB Brandon Jackson to potentially surprise, but likely the bigger rookie impacts will occur in the AFC with RB Marshawn Lynch starting in Buffalo, RB Chris Henry making an impact in Tennessee and QB Brady Quinn potentially starting for Cleveland.
I'd love for AD to blow up this year, but I think that CJ or M Lynch will be the Offensive Rookie of the year.

AD should be very good but Lynch is in a better situation.

I agree. Lynch is in a MUCH better situation.
I'm not a huge Lynch fan though.
