Well if we can get a 1st round pick and the player selected is at a Jefferson level no matter the position I'd take it.

I don't get it. What does Addison believe should be happening that isn't happening, and if it isn't happening, why isn't it happening? Does he really think the Vikings are putting him on the field with no intent of maximizing his production for them?

Pro receivers as a group tend to have this diva complex. Maybe that is an unfair generalization but they seem to overestimate their significance while underestimating how their own play and attitude impact their production.

Maybe Sam Darnold doesn't trust you're going to be open? Or maybe Darnold just isn't looking your way for some reason? Heck, from what I've seen Darnold is Mr. Lockon lately. He's going to decide where he's going with the ball and go there pretty much regardless of whether that receiver is open. Doesn't mean he'll always throw the ball to that receiver but I'm not seeing many times where Darnold looks off a route and goes somewhere else with the ball. So maybe he's just not picking you Jordan because he's already made up his mind pre-snap to go elsewhere.

To be fair to Addison, he doesn't seem to be getting many chances, which is odd considering he's a 1st round pick and has proven he can make plays. I don't know if that is scheme, Darnold, something else, but it would be nice to see Addison getting more involved.

As for Diggs, forget it. If Addison is a diva Diggs is Queen diva. More drama for not more potential production makes no sense.
