I loved Jimmy G in that years draft. Hes only gotten better with the coaching staff and mentor he had. Vikings simply cant find anyone worth a sh!t in the draft.

I would say it’s recognizing talent when you see it. Nick Foles has been a mediocre at best backup. Jimmy G has gone 7-0 and led a 1-10 team, let me repeat....a 1-10 team to a 5-0 record to end the year. Foles has been up and down. Same with case. That’s yet to happen with Garappolo. But yeah let’s throw a 2nd away for Foles all because he won a SB after taking over the #1 team in the nfl at the end of the year. Makes sense. About as much sense as relying on Teddy Bridgewater this year
But soon we’ll all get to witness how “stupid” the 49ers really are

Stop screwing around with the QB carousel we've had for more than a decade and pay a bonafide QB to come here and solidify things. Yeah Cousins isn't cheap but his body of work is impressive. You aren't going to see QBs of his caliber hit free agency often, strike while the iron is hot!
They better not let Barr walk. Still, I don't trust cousins any ore than Keenum. Time will tell I guess.ocampo82 wrote:S197 wrote:Let me qualify by saying Case had a tremendous year and some of the plays in this compilation aren't his fault (e.g. DB breaks off coverage after ball is thrown making receiver appear open, pressure forces him away from open receiver, etc) but there are still a lot of plays where Case flat out missed the deep read or simply under threw the WR.

man...some of those were hard to watch. I think with the money coming off the books (Floyd, Robison) Restructure or cut Wright, Rudolph, Murray and maybe let Barr walk I think that will make up the difference between Keenum and Cousins in pay.
There you go again.mosscarter wrote:The news is already out that they aren't using the franchise tag, how about discussing something relevant?
Arthur Arkush via Twitter wrote:My understanding is #Vikings won’t be using the tag on any of their FA quarterbacks. We’ll see though.
The lone article this rumor appears in.The same article as the Twitter quote wrote:Arkush also covers the NFC North for USA TODAY Sports Weekly, so he is quite familiar with the Vikings and their current situation. But for now, this piece of info should be taken as nothing more than a rumor.
I'm assuming you meant to say something else because they've drafted 2 in the past 7 years, both in the first round. Ponder was drafted in 2011 and Bridgewater was drafted in 2014. I realize were 1.5 months into 2018 but that's still two first round QBs in the last 7 drafts.Pondering Her Percy wrote:Well we also haven’t drafted a QB in 7 yearsPurpleKoolaid wrote:I loved Jimmy G in that years draft.

Didn't click on the link but I know what it's going to show. The non PI to Diggs vs DET (and several that will look the same) and receivers running wide open down the field. I don't think the Vikings need a perfect QB. This group of receivers seem to get open consistently. I'd like to see a QB that can hit these receivers in stride, especially when they get wide open down the field. So many yards (and a few TDs) left on the field because the receiver had to slow down and adjust to the ball.ocampo82 wrote:S197 wrote:Let me qualify by saying Case had a tremendous year and some of the plays in this compilation aren't his fault (e.g. DB breaks off coverage after ball is thrown making receiver appear open, pressure forces him away from open receiver, etc) but there are still a lot of plays where Case flat out missed the deep read or simply under threw the WR.

So it's your opinion that they won't use the tag on Case Keenum. That's fine. You're entitled to your opinion. But you presented this as news, which is is most definitely not. Then you insulted everybody by saying, "how about discussing something relevant?"mosscarter wrote:Well Kapp, they obviously aren't using it on Teddy and it would be shocking if they used it on Bradford, so I'm not sure that the original article had either of those two in mind. We'll see, I don't see them giving Case 23 million. If they wanted to franchise Case in my view they would have taken that route already. The number isn't going to change, so why would they wait? Someone will throw money at him as soon as free agency opens up it always happens with QB's.
