Vikings put franchise tag on Harris!!

It's interesting that these reports come out today, the same day that reports of a trade for OBJ have been put to bed. I wonder if there's a connection?

Either for a new deal or playing for 2020 under FT!

I still think either team might have been floating the idea publicly to gage reaction.

I guess Vikings are not drafting Winfield, well, it is nice to dream....

I mean if we can find a way to afford Harris, I’d rather have him than an unknown

Well it still seems odd regarding Beckham. This was just reported....it’s Kirk cousins in a nutshell

We will see what happens on draft day or before the draft next week

I'd like to see them find a way to keep him for at least another three years. He has played at a very high level and there is already been enough to turn over on this defense in one offseason.

Reports that Harris will sign long term with Vikings. If true could mean no Williams trade and no return of Everson Griffen as I don't know where we would find the money.

The St. Paul Pioneer Press reports unsigned Vikings franchise player Anthony Harris is in "no rush" to sign his tender.
Per reporter Chris Tomasson, Harris is committed to signing a long-term contract before the July 15 deadline. ESPN's Josina Anderson reported four days ago that the sides were making progress toward a pact. They have been in active discussions for some time now. This seems like a multi-year agreement that will actually get done.

FWIW, Spielman is asked about how confident he is Harris will be on the roster to start the season in the virtual press conference you can see on vikings.com. Says he isn't going to address that question. We'll see what happens.

It will be interesting. We may have to part from Harris to get Williams or Griffen and to get both would absolutely have to part with him.

Rumor has it? #Vikings working on an extension with Safety Anthony Harris to move him in the draft. The two teams that have shown the most interest are the #Browns and #Raiders #NFL #NFLDraft

(NFL Rumors on Twitter)

This sounds very likely to me.

Yeah, I can see that happening, I think Harris is going to Browns since they are in desperate need for a safety and then Vikings draft Winfield to replace Harris

One HUGE problem with trading Harris to the Browns. They are considered our top competition for Williams and making this trade with us would help us beat them out for Williams.

Will be interesting to see if the Browns get a chance at Wirfs what they do.
We have so many needs I really don't know what to expect. Also it's going to be interesting to see who might drop to us.

Interesting thought here. Maybe we have a three team trade in the works. Harris to the browns, Williams to us and picks to Washington. Browns get their safety and draft a top LT with their 1st pick in draft. We get our LT and then grab a safety (Winfield?) with one of our two 1st rounders. And Washington gets rid of Williams and some draft capital in return. Seems like a win for all involved.
