I'd like to see us keep both Stanley and Browning and Dump Mannion.
As long as Kirk Cousins is a Viking, they will never draft a quarterback!!!

That would be nice but it appears Mannion has a spot here as long as he wants it lol. Only way he would lose it is if he sees extended playing time and plays poorly.VikingsVictorious wrote: ↑Mon Apr 27, 2020 7:13 pmI'd like to see us keep both Stanley and Browning and Dump Mannion.

Probably. Lance Zierlein talking about the Vikings draft really liked Stanley.Maelstrom88 wrote: ↑Mon Apr 27, 2020 7:30 pmThat would be nice but it appears Mannion has a spot here as long as he wants it lol.

Re: As long as Kirk Cousins is a Viking, they will never draft a quarterback!!!
I was surprised when I read about him in my draft magazine lol. He actually has good size and reportedly a good arm. Sounds promising for where he was drafted.VikingsVictorious wrote: ↑Mon Apr 27, 2020 8:11 pmProbably.

Re: As long as Kirk Cousins is a Viking, they will never draft a quarterback!!!
Yeah I think from the sound of it Kirk was a little more mobile coming out though. Also more accurate on rollouts.fiestavike wrote: ↑Mon Apr 27, 2020 10:11 pmHis scouting report sounds kind of like Kirk Cousins!Maelstrom88 wrote: ↑Mon Apr 27, 2020 8:44 pm

Re: As long as Kirk Cousins is a Viking, they will never draft a quarterback!!!
I agree. There is a difference between being bad in the pocket and being immobile like Stanley.Maelstrom88 wrote: ↑Mon Apr 27, 2020 10:16 pmYeah I think from the sound of it Kirk was a little more mobile coming out though. Also more accurate on rollouts.
Who was the last guy like Stanley to have success in the NFL? I am not talking older vets who become immobile with age, but compensate with vet savvy and quick reads. I am talking a rookie or 1st year QB who just couldn't move in the pocket. The NFL is hard on young QBs who are immobile.

Re: As long as Kirk Cousins is a Viking, they will never draft a quarterback!!!
Don’t forget, he was also a three-year starter for a quality Big Ten program that runs a pro style offense. He went 3-0 in bowl games. His stats aren’t eye popping because Iowa always leans toward the conservative side of things, and he’s not throwing to 5-star recruits. But he’s solid.Maelstrom88 wrote: ↑Mon Apr 27, 2020 8:44 pmI was surprised when I read about him in my draft magazine lol. He actually has good size and reportedly a good arm.

No idea if he’ll transition well to the NFL, but he was easily worth a 7th round draft choice.
Go ahead. I dare you.
Underestimate this man.

In two years a 38 year old Aaron Rodgers is going to be our QB...

Re: As long as Kirk Cousins is a Viking, they will never draft a quarterback!!!
Yeah I think he was definitely worth a 7th rounder and if they take the time to coach him up he could st least be a decent back up.J.

Unless Cousins gets hurt or his production drops off a cliff I think he will be the QB for 5 to 6 years.

Rivers...Eli wasn't too swift a foot either. Carson Palmer. Bradford. There have been a large number who were at least NFL calibur, and some who were very good within the last couple decades.Maelstrom88 wrote: ↑Tue Apr 28, 2020 10:58 amWas Manning ever that immobile?
