LT or AP? Which one to buy?

I am at a toss up as to which one to buy as a gift for a friend. I am looking for opinions as to which would be a better investment, an Adrian Peterson mini or a Ladainian Tomlinson mini. Also, what kind of price range should I be looking to pay. Thanks in advance, Joe.

Depends on the signature, if it's LT's usually crap then go with AP. AP gives a beautiful sig when being paid that he doesn't give IP much anymore.

Thanks guys, i know LT's sig is not that good, but in the long run, do you think that AP is going to be a better player than LT?

I'd invest in Adrian although you can't go wrong either way. AP for a mini I'd say anywhere around $100 is a very good buy but a reasonable price range is probably close to $125-$150. For LT if you can get a mini of him for $175-200 or close to it it'
d be a good buy, his stuff usually sells pretty consistently around $200 at the least.

LT is def. the safer bet if you are looking at an investment, but if your friend is a fan of AP, there's nothing wrong with buying that auto.

I think LT will have a longer career. But AP might have a more explosive career, but a shorter one. AP will eventually be sidelined due to injuries. His body is taking a toll and most can sustain longevity in this league with serious injuries every year.
