0 2 minutes read The Minnesota Vikings are looking for an answer at their third wide receiver spot. The Vikings haven’t really had a reliable target at that spot since Jarius Wright. All that they need is a reliable target who can move the sticks on third down. The team is set at the first two spots with Justin Jefferson and Adam Thielen holding down the other spots out wide. Another weapon in the wide receiving core would do wonders for an offense that is already loaded with talent. Let’s...

2009: Broncos Trade 1st-Rounder for Alphonso Smith As a matter of principle, when an 8-8 team offers a future first-round selection for a second-rounder, you take it. The Seattle Seahawks sent the No. 37 pick in the 2009 draft to the Denver Broncos for their top choice in the 2010 draft.

Pundits debate the merits of the trade in a “who won” capacity as if the transaction was a tit-for-tat swap. It wasn’t. First, the Vikings received rookie merchandise as the first installment of compensatio...

The Pretendies: Who should the Vikings Draft as their WR3? Part One: The Big Bodied Receiver 4 minutes read Every football fan looks forward to the NFL draft. But, as I’ve established in like six articles this month, I feel (anecdotally) that Minnesota Vikings fans extra look forward to the Draft as it is a main component of the time of year I’ve dubbed ‘The Pretendies’. Sigh. The Pretendies: A Time of Year where ANYTHING is possible… Theoretically. The 2021 Draft is a huge opportun...

An Attempt to Measure Draft Prowess By ON Viking on Jan 19, 2021, 3:26pm CST + I have a question. How adept at the NFL Draft is Rick Spielman? I have been torn over the last season regarding Spielmans ability to successfully create a winning team. I know many of you have been with me on that matter.
