Re: New Kickoff Rule

I loved this solution since I first saw it in the XFL. Special teams will be fun to watch again.

Re: 2024 NFL Draft

The older I get the more I think it comes down to the maturity/work ethic of the QB, health, and his supporting cast and coaching early in his career. I think most guys are better off sitting at least half of their first season. If you're a QB who gets drafted high you have the talent to be successf...

Re: 2024 NFL Draft

I'm ok with moving up to take Maye. Moving up for JJ would be a huge mistake that would likely get everyone fired in a few years. His ceiling is Tua/ Alex Smith and his floor is Jimmy Clausen. That's not a guy you give up 4 potential impact starters to go get. It's also a guy you will end up paying...

I think he's going to do very well for us if we can protect up the middle.

Re: 2024 NFL Draft

https://www.si.com/fannation/bringmethesports/vikings/new-vikings-qb-coach-josh-mccown-has-connections-to-drake-maye-sam-darnold I think we have an agreement in place to move up to number 3 if Maye is on the board. I really like Maye however he will need time to learn how to read defenses and clean...

Re: 2024 Free Agents

So the tag rate is around 22 million and the highest paid WR currently is Tyreek Hill at an average of 30 million a year. How high are you willing to go on a non QB? The cap went up 30 million this year. For me I'd go no higher than 34 million per year which would tie him with the highest paid edge...

Re: 2024 Free Agents

To me that comes down to how much he wants per year. It would also take more than just pick 5. If he is asking more than they are willing to pay then they need to get something before he leaves for nothing. Getting nothing but a FA comp pick would be dumb. If you tag him he will ask for a trade lik...

Re: 2024 Free Agents

Soooooo..... Would you trade JJ for the 5th pick in the draft, and a future pick? To me, that's a tough call. Picks 5, 11, and 23 could very easily turn into a major roster upgrade with an infusion of youth on rookie contracts. To me that comes down to how much he wants per year. It would also take...

Re: 2024 NFL Draft

Mcarthy is a GAME MANAGER. Imagine if Penix was QB for Michigan, you don’t think Harbaugh would have passed the ball a little more?! If Odunze falls to 11, got him. Then Penix with 23 (NOT a second rate QB). Offense would be crazy for years. Jefferson, Odunze, Addison and Hock… greatest assembly of...
