Management has been very consistent and forceful in expressing their refusal to trade him. If he demands a trade that would get a the ball rolling. Until then I see no reason to think it's imminent. In my opinion they would be better off trading him for great compensation than paying him 34 million...

Thankfully its in the past and we have a GM that has a different philosophy on how to build a team, the draft is just 1 tool in team building so when people say we are mortgaging our future if we use all our first and second round picks for 2 years to get “our guy” at QB in the draft, I just cannot...

That's what FA is. The top available will be overpaid because it's an auction. Look what that Falcon team just paid a good QB coming off an injury. The Falcons draft of a tier 2 QB didn't work. That 2017 team had the number 1 D and then in 2018 it dropped to 17. That's a huge decline year over year...

How has KAM addressed that though? He extended Cousins again and has made some pretty questionable moves both in the draft and in free agency thus far. By all accounts KOC and he wanted to keep Cousins around longer, too, only they weren't willing to hand him another huge guaranteed deal for 4 year...

If you believe he ever left, He is back......but I am sure glad Kirk isn't. After all this forum is about football, not faith.

It was the big 2 before all the media got involved. It still is the big 2. That don't create a good story. The media can't spend months talking about 2 guys. They need more material. I would spend 3 1st on Maye . He's a great prospect and everything Lawrence is/was. We agree on a lot of things, but...

Interesting take. Chargers trading for JJ at 5. I would expect a 1st and 2nd this year and a 2nd next year. Interesting.... I love todays trade. This just shows that this GM is all in on getting a SB before I die. We have over $100m in FA in 2025. Get your guy, QB, in this draft. Have him for 5 yea...

I guess I don’t follow that train of thought. If you look back at the Vikings last 20 first and second rounders. Pick the best 6 and then tell me you wouldn’t give them up to have a franchise QB for the next 10-15 years What franchise QBs taken in the last 20 drafts would merit the type of trade yo...

I'd frame it this way, it isn't "a franchise qb". It's the opportunity to try and swing for one. Absolutely no guarantee. They miss and I suspect most fans would be livid in that scenario. And they lose their jobs. It's about how confident THEY are if they think they can get a franchise q...

I guess I don’t follow that train of thought. If you look back at the Vikings last 20 first and second rounders. Pick the best 6 and then tell me you wouldn’t give them up to have a franchise QB for the next 10-15 years Personally, I am in the fandom of this team for a championship and/or a dynasty...

There's no way they drop 4 1st rounders. Agree. Giving Cousins the deal Atlanta gave him would be far cheaper than giving up essentially the future of the franchise for a wild swing at a QB in this year's draft. If the Vikings were to do the above even to get Caleb Williams KAM should be fired and ...

Are 1st and 2nd rounders really that valuable if you don’t have the Priority 1 missing piece to the puzzle? Quality coaching, tenure of said coaching staff, continuity in the system’s put in place by the coaching staff and drafting and signing FA players that fit those systems are far more importan...

That's the challenge. 2024 1st 2024 2nd 2025 1st 2025 2nd 2026 1st 2027 1st Probably take something like that. Or one of those teams liking a qb likely available at 11 and still able to collect a haul to drop down. What would the Vikings be giving up ALLLLLLLLLL of that for? :shock: :shock: :shock:...

Or include JJ and a combination of picks. That's an interesting proposal. IMO now is the perfect time to move on from JJ. He is never going to be worth more than he is right now. And it will free up even more cap space going forward to sign more young FA talent while your franchise guy is on a rook...

I wish that were true but I don't think so. Not because they won't try, but because they won't have a partner. Bears probably wouldn't trade to the Vikings to begin with. Commanders signed Mariota to a 1 year deal and it seems to me they're planning to groom a QB behind him. NE traded away Mac Jone...
