By the time the draft comes around the Vikings will be looking at needing to replace starters at the following positions to actually improve over last season: 2 CBs 2 LBers 1 WR Center IOL RB They should be looking towards the future at QB Edge DI IOL (LG) Basically any position would be appropriat...

Or just hold onto #23 AND keep your best player by far on defense. The Vikings already got good value out of their 2nd round pick and nothing says they have to trade down to pick up some worthless 4th round draft picks. He's definitely our best defensive player, but he's getting long in the tooth a...

Walter Football has him going #3 overall to the Cardinals anyway, so all this debate probably means nothing. As for a trade down, picking up an extra second seems unlikely with where the Vikings are picking: ... Looks like the most we could hope for is an extra 3rd with a trade down, and that is wi...

You guys are killin' me! :lol: IIsweet, all I can say to your point is that sometimes GM's are dumb. Dumb like passing on Randy Moss or Justin Jefferson dumb. It happens all the time where a guy is overlooked because of some off-field concern or because he doesn't fit one of a given team's immediat...

Completely agree. I'm a Longhorn and LOVE Bijan, but in the history of 13 win teams in the NFL, we are probably the one with the most holes ever. Give me the immovable center Torrence from Florida. With some beef and power in our IOL, we would improve this offense immediately. Bradbury was the kind...

How so? After he is cut this off season, he will have made about 8 million per year over his 3 seasons here, while having asignificantly higher impact on his offense than most RBs out there and who more importantly, remained more healthy than most RBs out there. Cook's contract was actually a good ...

I don't know why you want him to be great

Only because he played at Iowa State.

I’ll pass. Was never sold on him In his first start against the Bears this season he didn't even complete 50% of his passes. No thanks you can find that anywhere. He will be a cheap backup/change of pace QB for them. The 49ers missed on that deal but they made up for it with Purdy. If there's a GM ...

I know that some are calling for a lot of veteran heads this offseason but we have to be careful at the same time unless we're shifting into full rebuild mode which I dont foresee. If we just cut all our aging veterans, we're going to have a plethora of holes to fill with 4 draft picks (will be 6 a...

What 5 teams have better than top 5 edge rushers, a good DT and another solid DT? SF and ? Pressure totals by top 4 pass rushers: Philly: 205 Dallas: 216 Buffalo (top 5 since Von Miller went out partway through the season): 168 SF: 207 Vikings: 204 Miami: 182 NYJ: 177 Jacksonville: 180 Top 5 this l...

So here are the scenarios to me that are most appealing. We are starting in the minus $9million Cut Pre June 1st. Cap Savings (CS) Dead Money (DM) Kendricks CS $9.5m DM $1.9 Hicks CS $5m DM $1.5 Zadarius CS $13.66 m DM $3.5m CJ Ham CS $3m DM $750k Total CS $28.16m DM $$7.65m Post June 1 cuts (after...

Jones had all day to sit back and let his plays develop. He was not getting the ball out quickly by my eye test. I'd love to see objective numbers on that since our impressions are so different. I'll look into it. Top 5 D line is horribly inaccurate, IMO. In the regular season, we generated 38 sack...

Couple alarming stats that I saw and I think it goes to show how much this offense carried us and how much this defense hurt us. Stat #1: Records of teams with the last ranked defense in the nfl (yards and ppg combined) 2022 Vikings: 13-4 2021 Jets: 4-13 2020 lions: 5-11 2019 dolphins: 5-11 2018 be...

The bigger picture failed. We won a weak as$ division. 13 wins is meaningless when you are what the media said you are. The media claims many things. Calling a division weak is an opinion. I wouldn't call the South or the West strong divisions. The East is probably the best so the Eagles should wal...
