I somehow didn't realize Locke was a free agent. I think they really dropped the ball on not resigning him.

So if he decked out a guy, you'd have no problems drafting him? I love how a woman can basically tee off on a man but said guy has to show restraint. I don't believe in "oh, you aren't supposed to hit a woman" rather I go by the belief that people ought to keep their hands to themselves and not on anyone , man or woman. The only reason that this is such a boon of contention is that it was on videotape. Tyreke Hill, who was a rookie with the Chiefs also had domestic violence issues and those people in KC cheered him on regardless. Fact is, Mixon needs to address it head on, show remorse and people stop bringing it up.SP1966 wrote: Not a chance I would draft him. He may have learned his lesson and will be a good human being going forward, but no way I draft/sign a guy who laid a woman out like that, no way.

Actually the Vikings signed a punter in January and apparently are very happy with him. That is why they let Locke walk. Atleast that is what I heard this morning.autobon7 wrote: Agree....now our needs are OL, RB, P, K?, DT?, LB? development/back up QB
Yes. They signed Taylor Symmank. He was a punter at Texas Tech. They also added Kicker Marshall Koehn to their offseason roster as well.Norv Zimmer wrote: Actually the Vikings signed a punter in January and apparently are very happy with him.

The Vikings signing a Packer, sound legit!
After looking around, this is probably bullcrap.
You call him fat because he had one season where he was overweight? His average was 4.1 ypc that season regardless.S197 wrote:Ugh, I'm not too thrilled about them signing fat boy. An upgrade to Asiata for sure but this is a good draft for RB's, would prefer FA money spent elsewhere.
