Re: Trade in the works for O-line?

Why would Pete Carrol see/know about a Vikings trade before anyone else?? He easily could have known in my opinion. GM's play other teams against each other all the time as to what other teams will offer them in trades. Maybe Seattle's GM called about Staley or Thomas and one of them said "Min...

Re: Projecting the 53man roster?

If Loadholt does not win the starting Job, I think he will be cut Yeah that was my thinking by saying he would get cut. I like Phil and I think he can still play I just think Smith wins the job and they go with Clemmings and Beavers to fill in the backup roles. Clemmings struggled but with time and...

Re: Vikings draft busts of the past

The list is long but a couple that stick out in my mind are when we took Darrin Nelson over Marcus Allen and Derrick Alexander over Warren Sapp.

Re: Where my Iowa Hawkeyes brethren?

Hoops team looks horrible lately! I don't know what happened but Uthoff, Clemmons, and Uhl have been horrible for the last 5 or so games. If it wasn't for Jok and Woodbury we would have lost to Illinois and Minnesota also. They went from a possible #1 seed to a steaming pile quick!

Re: Cordarrelle Patterson

I hope the best for Patterson but I am always skeptical when someone finally "gets it" and puts in the work and effort in their last year of a contract. Funny how that happens alot. I think he is super talented and I have been frustrated with the lack of use but I also recognize Patterson ...

Re: 4 cuts, 4 signings, and 4 picks

I think we are still a ways away from the Superbowl. Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk I don't think we are very far away at all. We are 2 Teddy fumbles from beating both Denver and Arizona on the road and a ridiculous missed chip shot FG from beating the defending NFC Champs in the playoffs. If...

Re: 4 cuts, 4 signings, and 4 picks

I like the sounds of that but it will be tough to land two big FA lineman and it could cause us to overpay them. And I think Robison goes 1 more year and then Hunter is unleashed I agree it will be tough to land 2 big FA lineman but I think this is the year that we have the best chance to recruit a...

Re: 4 cuts, 4 signings, and 4 picks

Mel Kiper's 2016 Mock Draft, the Minnesota Vikings select. . .Cody Whitehair, guard, Kansas State University. Which he is being compared to Zack Martin of the Cowboys. If they would cut Kalil & Wallace there would 23 mil in cap savings. Which could go a long ways. Whitehair is great and if we w...

Re: 4 cuts, 4 signings, and 4 picks

I don't mind this line of thinking (save for assuming Conklin is going to be an upgrade on Kalil at LT when many are pegging him as a RT due to his perceived athletic limitations). I just find it incredibly unlikely. The Vikings/Rick just don't spend heavily in free agency. Pegging them to sign two...

Re: 4 cuts, 4 signings, and 4 picks

Cut Kalil and Loadholt? Who are we going to replace them with that would be an upgrade? Or is it simply a cost cutting and hope for the best type situation? Robison gets very little love around here, I'm not sure why. Schwartz replaces Phil at RT and Conklin replaces Kalil at LT. Osemele moves in a...

Re: Where my Iowa Hawkeyes brethren?

Great time to be an Iowa fan! Haven't felt this good about the hoops team since BJ, Marble, and Ed Horton in the late 80's.
