Mond isn't getting the benefit of Theilen and JJ, which could change EVERYTHING.

I wish the NFL would have partnered with the XFL or one of the other leagues (that failed) and had a system in place for NFL teams to allocate some players.

Kurt Warner is a HOF QB only because he got a chance to develop/prove himself in Arena league and NFL Europe.

i like what I've seen from mond...with the first team he'll develop just fine...he's got a quick release and a rifle of an arm, gets rid of the ball quickly, and doesn't take sacks...also, he throws to, and hits moving targets....

if cousins doesn't produce this season let's figure out a way to trade him and move on with mond....

sign fitzgerald
sign sendejo
sign kj wright (i wanted this guy a couple of years ago)

I don’t see it, yet. Just because Mond has some draftable qualities … there’s a long way to go to figure out if he is starting caliber, much less a good starter. At the very least, one more offseason - TC - preseason just to get a little better handle on him. Unless he’s pressed into service this season because of injury … he hasn’t shown nearly enough to throw the franchise at him next year. No way.

Would love to sign Wright but unless Barr is a Hunter (or Barr) situation from last year unfolding … can’t see us spending enough to keep him from rejoining the Seahawks.

also, mond has great pocket awareness and mobility...i think that he'll be ready to make a run at leading the offense next season....

the only way to develop him is to run him at full speed with the starting offense...i think he'll be ready to take that step next season....

somehow this barr thing gives me a 'strung out, gone for the season' feeling...wright almost signed with the raiders a few weeks back....

Everson Griffen signed with the Vikings for the vet minimum of just $1,075,000. It is not guaranteed and if he goes on injured reserve he only gets half. Talk about team friendly.

Put Mond in with some 1st teamers...I remember seeing Dante sit the first year and show zilch....teamed him up with CC and Moss; no issues.

it looks like pierce is giving griffen the #97...apparently, there are like 90 pre-printed 'pierce' jerseys with #97 that the equipment manager is dealing with...they're going to sell them as collector's items and donate the money to 'kirk cousins is ass', a non-profit anti-vaccination support group....

Will Parks’ name has come up with the #Vikings before, and now that he’s back on the open market, he’s a candidate to land in Minnesota, per a league source. Vikings might need safety depth and special teams contributions with Xavier Woods and Josh Metellus banged up.

Get it done.

Metellus and Dorn were not good against Indy.

Bynum not good either but give the rookie some time.

I'd be more concerned with him taking out yet another teammate with one of his dirty hits.

I think he is up to three different teams on which he has taken out teammates.

We did have guys who combined for 4500 yards and 40 TDs wearing baseball caps last night.

But, we do seem a step slower than KC and Denver. Even against their backups.
