He wouldn't have thrown it out of bounds and his eyes would have been wide open when he threw to the checkdown back who would be tackled instantly. Didn't you guys ever watch the games?

The Bills definitely need WRs, and every situation is different but would Buffalo to go the Vikings WR well again after the Diggs fiasco? The Bills gave up a 1st, 4th, 5th, and 6th for Diggs and a 7th. Two years into his contract they gave him a big $ 4-year extension. He was traded just halfway into that.

Losing Addison would leave another big hole to fill that would cost a lot in free agency. Odds of hitting a better than average WR in the draft is about 1 out of 2 in the first round and about 1 out of 3 in the second. Right now Addison will only cost the Vikings $4,369,190 against the cap next year. How do you replace that?

I'd try and resign Nailor to anything around 6-7 a year max and take a guy on day 2.

Need to put out a blanket disclaimer that any hopeful draft post is made with the full understanding that it is Qweasy drafting.

Kyle Ostoyic reposted The Purple Persuasion @TPPSkol · 3h Although the Vikings are in the deep negative for salary cap, @TexansCap shared some optimistic insight into Minnesota's situation. The Vikings can actually free-up around $100M in cap space with just basic restructures. "Look at [the Vikings] salary cap to cash ratio. That number is a very low number. It's one of the lowest in the league. So what that means is they've got a lot cash over cap. So that gives them a lot of flexibility... There's a lot of flexibility with using basic restructures... Minnesota has got a $100M in just basic restructure flexibility... That like gets you back into the positive at $28-29M on the right side of the cap space".

Bill Johanesen -> RE: General Vikes Talkk (1/22/2026 6:10:06 PM)
All that BS ultimately means is they can seek relief for 2026. Qweasy can spread out the cap hits via restructures, convert this or that to something else, try to get players to take less money, cut players, or utilize some combination of those things. Outside of a player taking less money or cutting players, it's all a long-term cap wash. Keeping the contracts and with nobody taking less money, it boils down to how much cap Qweasy wants to pay via credit cards. Nothing new there. A non-starter.

I loved the old days when we front loaded our free agent deals so by the end the guys were a bargain instead of being overpriced as they aged out. Only disadvantage is I recall players wanting new deals more often as their old ones were quickly eclipsed by a rising salary cap and other teams signing similar value players to better deals then they had at that moment, even though they got a lot of their money right away.

Bill Jandro -> RE: General Vikes Talkk (1/24/2026 8:01:52 AM)
I never understood trading for Theilen when you had plenty of wr's even w/o Addison for the first 3 games. Aaron Jones could been our 3rd wr if need be for that stretch. Or, run more 2 TE lineups. Why didn't Felton gets some run? 3 rec all year? If we trade Addison giving that kid some snaps as the #3 would have helped for next season. This regime is in over their heads and I expect things to continue going south.

Chris Olson -> RE: General Vikes Talkk (1/24/2026 12:51:42 PM)
Well, Steelers are hiring Mike McCarthy... Flores stays put! Woot!

I will never listen to anything or any broadcast by Paul Allen, ever again. What a Phildo..

Chris Olson -> RE: General Vikes Talkk (1/25/2026 12:17:05 PM)
Always thought he was a tool... But I'm with you, Dan... PA needs to go and while he's there, I will only listen to the opponent's announcers if I can't watch

twinsfan -> RE: General Vikes Talkk (1/25/2026 6:59:32 PM)
Paul Allen in hot water. I was listening on Friday when he said some absurd stuff. He won't be on tomorrow. Suspension or firing oncoming.

PA has been a sanctimonious fake Christian for a long time and his show sucks anyway. He likes to listen to himself talk and wastes entire segments of his show talking in circles without saying anything. Him and Matt Birk together was really terrible talking down to people with their holy roller schtick....Good riddance.

Is there anyone out there dumb enough to still think that Sam Darnold cannot win a big game? I mean, anyone but Phil?

Steve Lentz -> RE: General Vikes Talkk (1/25/2026 9:25:26 PM)
Darnold is a heck of a QB!!!!!!
