Some teams really going all in.
Some sitting quiet.
We must have one hell of a draft planned.



Steve Lentz -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins fans (3/12/2014 10:19:42 AM)

Zimmer is a defensive guy and is focusing in that direction right now. We have potentially a pretty darn good front four. I think we get the CB and linebacker positions upgraded in the draft. The QB position remains the HUGE question mark. Do we go after it in the 1st round or the 3rd?

Just reading Pellisaro tweets...basically, the cap implications are minor after 2015. Sounds like they constructed this well.

Credit to Rob B. on that? Seems to me as if it is the rare year that the Vikes are in salary cap jail, and when they are, they seem to adjust fairly quickly.

Really would like to see a solid CB arrive in FA sooner rather than later. Not going to be a ton left after today, I'm guessing.



Dave E -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins fans (3/12/2014 10:42:01 AM)

The NFL is amazing at making news. Why MLB doesn't take a tip is beyond me. Delay FA until later in the offseason; allow talks between teams/agents for a short period before you open it up; enjoy a day or two where you are making ALL the news.



SoMnFan -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins fans (3/12/2014 10:46:54 AM)

I'm getting the Ha Ha Clinton Dix jitters.
I'm thinking that's our plan.
I'll be laughing so hard, I won't even care if it fails.

I mean seriously dude, just change the freaking name, just do it.
It simply can't be overcome.



Mr. Ed -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins fans (3/12/2014 1:11:40 PM)

.@Broncos were dangling deal averaging $9M a year. That forced @Vikings to sweeten offer to keep Griffen & caused DEN to look elsewhere

So now they're signing Ware, apparently



SoMnFan -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins fans (3/12/2014 1:13:31 PM)

The league is a crazy place nowadays
Top of the league one year
Cut the next
Hard to believe ... Some of these names that are available a year or two after being such huge acquisitions.



Mr. Ed -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins fans (3/12/2014 1:35:03 PM)

Ware signs big Denver deal.

I say: Big Deal

Peyton controls their fate. And that should make Broncos fans very nervous.

Lynn they have started demolishing the last of the bleacher stands



Lynn G. -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins fans (3/13/2014 10:44:17 AM)

Ah - I'll have to check out the webcam to see that!

In other words, there's no chance that will happen.

It's true, I felt worse about our chances after seeing that.

He'll predict a thousand different things before the draft, then once it's all over point to his analysis where he predicted something that actually happened and claim he's SOOOOO accurate.

It's the Meteorologists game.



SoMnFan -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins fans (3/13/2014 3:12:53 PM)

Whew!
Tavares Jackson stays in Seattle.
Bullet dodged.
Can tell Seattle is completely, totally, 100% happy with their starter. [&:]

Now that's funny.



Dave E -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins fans (3/13/2014 3:23:01 PM)

I'm glad Decker got the $$$...but yeah, I'm going to miss the highlights.



SoMnFan -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins fans (3/13/2014 3:24:41 PM)

There are certain locations where receivers go to die
NYs one of them

Which sucks
I likey Decker



SoMnFan -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins fans (3/13/2014 6:29:44 PM)

Can never have too much Captain
Very solid FA season
Now have a great draft.
Liking the latest mocks.



SoMnFan -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins fans (3/13/2014 7:03:05 PM)

See it's already being said, but Munnerlyn appears to be Winfield II
I'd take that, eh?
