I think its because of "wishful thinking".


Doubt it happens but I can see KAM not wanting to pay S big money and Cine is on a rookie contract. I don't think that's their plan but I can kinda see how it would make some sense.

So what's the plan if this is Smith's final year?

Metellus (who is more of a S/Nickle/LB hybrid) and...?

Brzez can print out a contract, complete with two void years and a void year placeholder, in 30 seconds. 'Big money' is unlikely and it doesn't matter to him anyway.

I quote Purple Daily a lot, and I understand they aren't the 'be all', but they were mentioning that it's Bynum's side that might be asking/expecting it. Agree that Brzez can make it work. He always does. They just don't think that S is a high dollar position in BFlo's D.

No. Metellus is a "no position" guy in this D. What i've heard/read is that Jackson's been killing it all camp. I can't, personally, comment. I was only able to watch the preseason opener.


Which chaps my ass actually. When did the NFL network stop carrying every preseason game? I get it, they can't all be live but dang. I still would have liked to watch them.

For real? It doesn't show up on any of the searches when I checked. Might have to just go 1by1 and try and find it. Thanks!

Sounds like Kyries Hebert.

I had to do a 1 month sub to NFL+ to get the preseason games.

Which reminds me, I need to cancel that before I get charged for another month...

Nothing to do with you.

Full discloser: I thought it was funny Dan calls anyone a hater and below that he hates

I make no secret of my “ hate” for KFC..

Never have..

What I see is people hating on a player because if he sticks, and contributes, they are gonna look foolish..

Hater have hated on Hall, Cine, Addison, Favrey, Ponder, Carlson, Moss, Peterson..

On and on…

I’m not picking on any one person..

If you think I am, and you name is not Phil or Marty..,

Check yourself..

I think Hall was brought in to be what he is.. a solid backup better than Mullet.

Cine is processing through a horrible injury, and KAM is trying to get the player that showed promise at Georgia.

Since none of us have any control, I choose to see upside and a “ move the **** on”, from Harrison Smith, who likes Cine as well.

Until he doesn’t, I say he makes the 53.. because his trade value is less than his usefulness on defense..

We are trade shopping Bynum.

As we should..

We need picks for 2025..

Hell we could trade Bradbury or Risner as well..

I had Risner getting cut in my latest roster projection, but this works out better for the Vikings.

I imagine they'll keep Dan Feeney and Tyrese Robinson (or Michael Jurgens) on the initial 53, with Risner potentially becoming a factor once healthy.

Cutdown day. Loose predictions on some of the 'names' who will get Das Boot:

Roy
Evans if they keep McGlothern
Cine unless they keep six safeties (including Metellus)

Offense doesn't seem to have any potential surprises or noteworthy cuts.

Word is Kene Nwangwu is being released.

Jim Souhan:

If the Vikings win with this roster, under these circumstances, Vikings coach Kevin O’Connell should get a lifetime contract and defensive coordinator Brian Flores should be an NFL head coach in 2025.
