Isadora traded for 7th round pick.


Nice.

Not that nice. A 7th round pick for a player we drafted with a 4th. Sure seems to help with keeping Samia and Udoh though.

Get rid of Brothers.

Thanks for the correction. I thought that might be the case. I was 51/49 on 4th 5th so went with 4th.




Bruce Johnson -> RE: General Vikes Talk (8/30/2019 3:11:04 PM)

He was going to be cut. Better to get something than nothing.

They could draft the next Dillon Mitchell with the 7th!

Also, this might mean nothing, but I don't like that he got really fat. Mr. Hard Nose, Old School, Mr. Discipline, got fat.
It's difficult, but not impossible, to sell discipline when you demonstrate none.


I think of Andy Ried, Mike McCarthy's later Packer years, Denny Green. Has any fat HC won a Super Bowl ?


Hank Stram, John Madden.

This discussion is silly.

Risk blindness in one eye, says the Vikings winning a Super Bowl is more important to him than the vision in that eye.

But he's got no self discipline.

BTW I hadn't noticed that he got fat. Guess I haven't seen him in his speedo.


You seriously haven't noticed the weight gain?

As far as the speedo, that's interesting that you mention that.

Risking blindness in one eye was a great story. Pretty sure he had top-notch medical care.
Rather doubtful that he was actually going to lose his vision because of football.
I guess Vrabel is still tougher, because he said he would cut off his genitals to win a Super Bowl.



You're late to the party. He has lost weight.

If they cut or trade Sloter...
I won't be a happy camper.
I have very little confidence in
Michael Scott a.ka. Cousins

Seems of the possible cuts we almost all want to keep Samia, Blasingame, and Udoh. We all want to not only keep Sloter, but some would like to elevate him to #1. A lot of love for Hercules and Watts as well. Does that sum things up pretty well?


Looks good to me, with the exception of Sloter. Give him the second spot ahead of Mannion. I like Herc on passing downs, but he would have some trouble holding up at the point of attack on obvious run downs. Udoh has to stay on the active roster because we will lose him if he gets to the ps.




Bruce Johnson -> RE: General Vikes Talk (8/30/2019 3:57:44 PM)

Tracker-

S Derron Smith- Cut, WR Alexander Hollins- Cut, C Cornelius Edison- Cut, RB Deangelo Henderson- Cut

When we started the off season, we didn't have enough FA money or draft picks combined to raise history's worst OL to 'adequate'.

Now our cup spilleth over onto other rosters.

Nice job Spielman.

(well ... that is, before suiting up for an actual game)

I don't think the dolphins qualify as an NFL roster

No kidding. They also traded with Indy for a C also.

I can't believe we got a draft pick for a guy who couldn't crack the starting lineup last year behind two of the biggest stiffs to ever play guard.

Outside of a QB, what other player might you anticipate getting traded?

I don't back off my belief in Dillon Mitchell's talent. He's got the talent to be a successful NFL WR.

Yeah but will be an EARLY 7th rounder, which is almost a 6th rounder.

You know it must have been chapping Spielman's hide to have given up one of his precious picks in the Vedvik trade, so now he's whole.
