In the make-do draft, Vikings go OL-CB in the 1st, WR in the 2nd. Spielman sets record for most trades in 3rd. Will have to make-do at DT.

Hopefully we still draft at least 2 WRs that would be better than Sharpe. How well do you know Sharpe? Been watching a lot of Titans games have you? You obviously made up your mind and given up on him before seeing how he plays ... in our system / on our team / with our QB.

I have always liked Wright. I want to see him back with us, but I don’t think it will happen.

Thielen Draft Pick Bisi Sharpe Draft pick/Hollins/CFL guy/Beebe Not real sure that Sharpe isn't better than Bisi either. I do hope that Zimmer gets a clue and promotes Mitchell. However, my confidence in Sharpe is so low that I think a myriad of persons could beat him out including the water boy.

You obviously made up your mind and given up on him before seeing how he plays ... in our system / on our team / with our QB. I know that his rookie year started great and he has fallen off the face of the earth ever since. Yes I have watched the Titans play a lot of games and Sharpe has been invisible. Obviously I can't know how he will play in our system with our team and our QB until he does. I hope I am totally wrong about him, but IMO he offers little to nothing and judging by what he signed for most of the league agrees with my opinion.If it weren't for the guaranteed money I would have no problem with the deal so we could get him in camp and see how he does with our system our team and our QB before paying him. As is I'm not too worried about a potential waste of $650K.

kgdabom -> RE: Free Agency 2020 (3/25/2020 5:59:10 PM)
Maybe Sharpe is still good, but like Mitchell on the Vikings the Titans were treating him unfairly and he will burst back onto the scene with us. A man can dream.

David F. -> RE: Free Agency 2020 (3/25/2020 8:43:19 PM)
Pff shows Sharp as improving slightly between 2016 and 2018 and improved significantly between 2018 and 2019. His blocking grades nicely and he appears to catch anything and everything thrown in his direction. I’d say we made a nice choice.

A man can dream. Sure ... but bad mouthing every body who competes with Mitchell – no matter how you justify it – is bad form. It's mostly joking with a little truth thrown in. My initial reaction to Sharpe is that he is worthless because of how his production had fallen off so bad since his rookie year. I'm hearing enough positive about him that I'm officially no longer against the signing.

I'm not going to believe Mitchell isn't the best of our scrub WRs until he is given a chance and shows he doesn't have what it takes. Maybe the Diggs trade will open up the possibility, but probably not. I think he got in the dog house and was never given a fair opportunity. I could certainly be wrong.
