Vikes thread!

[glenn57]

Oh sorry thought u pulled a glenn

yea maybe you should lighten up on the pain meds!!!!!!!!!

[glenn57]

Looks like the Vikings are keeping Hunter.👍

[KEN W]

Yup.....Had to pay his roster bonus today. Looks like he stays for 2 more years. Great if they can afford it and if he actually plays some games.

Now just draft some CB's.

[Gunner55]

 This guy https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2022/03/21/zadarius-smith-visiting-vikings/ might be able to help if he can stay on the field. He had surgery last season & looks to be healthy again though.  The discussion in the video on the team's issues is a good 1 too IMO.

He could hold out if he doesn't like his deal. 

[Gunner55]

  Some think his deal may still be redone to lessen his cap hit & may even include an extension. https://vikingsterritory.com/2022/general-news/vikings-star-pass-rusher-is-creating-discourse

Say what you will about Kapt. Kirk, but lucky for the Vikes, he has been durable and not missed many games.

Vikings re-signing Sean Mannion as Backup Quarterback 

The Vikings also have 2021 third-round pick Kellen Mond and 2020 seventh-round pick Nate Stanley on the quarterback depth chart.   

[KEN W]

After visiting with the Vikings on Monday, Smith has agreed to a three-year, $42 million deal that’s worth up to $47 million, according to multiple reports.

Gonna smack Rogers twice a year.

[LPS]

I don't understand letting Mannion take the place of a true football player on the squad.  He is absolutely worthless.  I agree with what someone else said, let Cousins pay him to be his sideline boy. 

[fishwidow]

Right on, LPS. I couldn’t agree more.

The pc I read said he was happy to get out GB & liked it that 2 of his early coaches are now on the Vikings staff.

Hey Vikes!  Here is how you "sell high" in the NFL.

Chiefs to trade Tyreek Hill to Dolphins for multiple draft picks in NFL shocker: reports

The Chiefs reportedly get five draft picks in return: a 2022 first-round pick (No. 29), a second-round pick (No. 50) and a fourth-round pick as well as a 2023 fourth-round pick and sixth-round pick.

  I just put it the NFl thread too.

[LPS]

Wow!

Glenns cousin Kirks interview on McAfee.

[KEN W]

Cornerback Chandon Sullivan, who started 20 games as Green Bay's slot corner over the past two seasons, is expected for a free-agent visit at TCO Performance Center in Eagan, a league source confirmed.

Only the best Packers get to be Vikings. 

[Gunner55]

  It looks like the Smith deal was pretty team friendly too.https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2022/03/24/inside-the-zadarius-smith-deal/

[Gunner55]

More good news. https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl/marquez-valdes-scantling-says-he-turned-down-more-money-to-play-for-chiefs/ar-AAVuZCj?ocid=msedgntp

Thought I seen where they signed him, Ken.

[Bobberineyes]

 Several players leaving the fudge huh?  Have the vikes done anything for the o line yet?

[Gunner55]

They signed a C/G from the Broncos to replace Cole who left to go to the Steelers.https://www.dailynorseman.com/2022/3/16/22981993/minnesota-vikings-agree-to-terms-ol-austin-schlottmann-denver-broncos  It's between OL & CB/S for their 1st couple rounds of the draft this year IMO. They do have 2-3 young guys on the OL that got some PT last year & didn't look too bad that will probably get a shot to begin this season too.

A writer mentioned it in a pc I read yday but I noticed it a week or so ago too. Almost all of the FAs they've signed have been with somebody on the new coaching staff before sometime, somewhere.  Makes sense to me.

[LPS]

Before she went to work the wife told me that AP wants to retire in purple.  That would be fine with me. 

[dutchboy]

When it was reported AP beat is little boy with a switch I was done with him.
