Pretty much. An OLB in a 3-4 defense is a defensive end or 3 technique DT in a 4-3 defense.beerfan wrote:Datone Jones is supposedly coming in for a visit. Not sure where he would fit on our team. Wouldnt he be more of a DE in a 4-3? Any opinions on him?

Like I said, what is the point of not paying AD if we are not going to do anything. I get that $18 million is way too much, but what have we done with the extra money?

Re: Packers @ Vikings Game Day Discussion Thread -- Week 2
He blamed the false starts and other issues on the crowd noise. He said, "When we have the ball, shut the #### up". I don't remember hearing any crowd noise when we had the ball at all. Well Sam Bradford did say something in the press conference about how loud the stadium got after they m...

Re: Options at QB
I say stick with Hill. Yes I know NFL career isn't appealing but he knows the playbook better than anybody we bring in. Plus none of the possible FAs are any better IMO. We still have good pieces surrounding the QB position. I think decent QB performance can get us into the post season. I'm just not...

Re: Out of state fans
This guy who owns this small restaurant in my town had direct tv Sunday ticket. Usually his sundays are his slowest days but whenever I came in and no one else was watching tv, he would turn to the Vikings games when i asked. Hot wings, fries, and beer for 17 Sundays. Other than that I go on Vikings...

Re: Facepalm, come on Treadwell
DB takes a bit longer to long. Rhodes was thrown into the wolves but you can definitely see the improvement compared to his first year. I say atleast 1-2 years on the bench is good for more 1st round picks no matter what position. I know people see 1st round and think this person must step in and st...

That's interesting, I also own a raider hat as well. lol However, I'm not in a gang nor am I a fan of the Oakland Raiders. I also own a New England Patriots throwback hat. I'm not a fan of them either. In the Urban community it's a fashion thing man. Like someone said earlier, The Vikings colors are...

Re: Greg Jennings tells KFAN he wants to come back to Minny
Remember Mike Jenkins? That's Jennings now. His gas tank is running on fumes. It's a moot point anyway. He won't end up here, if he's on a team at all. Possibly. The only difference is when we brought them in, we thought they were number one WRs. I was hoping we can get Jennings as a 3rd or 4th WR ...

Re: Greg Jennings tells KFAN he wants to come back to Minny
Yeah, we are nowhere near set at WR. Our WR core is a question mark at best. We have no #1 WR yet and there's no guarantee that the Vikings will go WR in the 1st round. No is it a guarantee that a WR he draft will pan out. Regardless of what happens, we don't have a leader in that WR core, Jennings ...

Re: Greg Jennings tells KFAN he wants to come back to Minny
If anything, we could always use another camp body. He could mentor the younger guys. A 1 year, veteran minimum deal doesn't sound bad.

Re: 2016 Vikings Free Agency Thread (Discussion Thread)
So I'm going to assume this means Loadholt will most likely ride the bench this year, maybe. Even if they do let them compete at camp, I doubt he will beat out Andre Smith. That and I don't think Smith would've signed for anything less of the starting role.

I wonder who saw this coming first? lol While Manziel does have the physical ability to be something great, mentally it's just not there. This same antics, were in his college years. At the time Texas A&M had a great supporting cast, especially a really strong WR core. I think any QB could've lo...

Re: Dream last night
I really feel bad for Moss. One of the greatest WRs of all time but will most likely never win a super bowl. Made it twice in his career but no luck. I would love to see Moss back in Minny for one more run, mainly because I'm a fan. But I doubt anyone will give him a chance at this age. Plus he was ...

Re: The curious case of Mike Wallace
Me honestly, I just think that our offense isn't built around the system that Norv is trying to run. This run n gun type offense he trying to run isn't working. We don't have a QB that's capable of burning people with deep passes. Also now that Peterson is back, Norv has done a poor job, disguising ...
