Adam chose Carolina and is emphasizing that he chose them because he thinks that they have a great shot at winning the SB. I'm left trying to decide whether AT is completely delusional and believes that the Panthers are, indeed, on the brink, or if he's just lying through his teeth because admitting...

Cut deadline passed; are we looking to trade Dalvin before the draft? Before the season starts?

It's also very interesting that we held onto Z, despite his showy social media leave-taking of MN.

https://twitter.com/TomPelissero/status/1636170216634712067?t=faMO2yJPkfwb7-IlLKpx4Q&s=19 I think Dalvin will be on the move soon. On Twitter Judd pointed out a key part of the timing here: Zeke was waived by the Cowboys and it likely indicated to the Vikes that they should be happy to accept a...

Don't you see drafting JMS (or any other round 2-3 center) as quite unlikely now, given the fact that they made this investment in Bradbury? I'd look for them to go WR, CB or DT with their top picks now, with a trade out of 23 to gather 2nd round resources as the most likely. Sadly you are right. E...

So Cousins restructures and saves the team $16million. However, his contract expires after the season. So no Cousins after 2023 !!! Also, Bradbury signs a 3 year deal, which I personally am not a fan of. I am thrilled to finally see the end is near of Cousins. I think Kwesi is hoping to run a team ...

If anyone hasn't seen/ heard this yet, it's very much worth your while. Old time MN Sports writer Patrick Reusse (77) recounts some absolutely fantastic anecdotes about Bud Grant and the Vikings of the 70s and 80s. Phil and Mackey do a nice job of just putting a quarter in Reusse and letting him rol...

From the Vikings: We are absolutely heartbroken to announce legendary Minnesota Vikings head coach and Hall of Famer Bud Grant has passed away this morning at age 95. We, like all Vikings and NFL fans, are shocked and saddened by this terrible news. I’m heartbroken, too. He was the greatest coach w...

I'm surprised they released Dantzler. Flores must have watched his tape and said, "nope, we're moving on." This is turning into the Red Wedding, a blood bath. I guess this is the rebuild part of "competitive rebuild." I think most fans knew this turnover on the roster had to occ...

Pondering, you're turning out to be very prescient. It looks like a Cook trade is likely. Dantzler wasn't traded, but was released, so he's gone. Thielen also gone. I hate to see him go, but he seemed less effective last year. Would have liked if they could have worked out something to keep him in ...

I'm 2 for 2 with the Flores signing and Kendricks cut....lets see how long this streak lasts for :lol: Call your shot, what happens next? Thielen cut? Some big moves on other teams too: Carr to Saints, Daniel Jones signed by Giants for 4 years @ 160 million! (He should give Donatell a part of that,...

Edit to add: If Kwesi stays @23 and decides to go offense, a much more likely choice, IMO, is Jaxon Smith-Njigba. I hear that Thielen and the FO have different impressions of his abilities at this stage of his career and therefore both what money and role in the offense he deserves. I see him getti...

Out of curiosity: do you watch a lot of college FB? Or do you devote a lot of time to watching tape in this pre-draft period? I watch a fair bit of Big 12 FB, and then the playoffs, but even so I don't feel like notice any player beyond the obvious ballers, :lol:. Actually, I don't watch many colle...

Interesting article worth reading: https://www.si.com/nfl/vikings/news/2023-nfl-draft-5-non-db-non-wr-prospects-vikings-could-take-first-round Just watched some tape for Arkansas LB Drew Sanders. That kid is a baller and would make us instantly better on D. Paired w/ Asamoah we would go from slow a...

Otherwise, I’m sorry to say your opinion about Sanders is worth about the same to me as my 6-year-old granddaughter’s opinion on unicorns. I'd be a more receptive audience to your grand daughter, Kapp. :lol: Well said. This board has some good posters who tend to defend an opinion with substance/ e...
