• Vikings Links: Free Agency Day 16 Open Thread

Mark J. Rebilas-Imagn Images Will there be anymore signings? I expect a few more signings with one being at the QB position obviously. Maybe a safety and tight end as well. What positions do you think they still might add another player? Minnesota Vikings News and Links J.J. McCarthy: Vikings haven’t told me I’m the starter Word earlier this month that the Vikings are not currently pursu...2025

• Vikings Links: Free Agency Day 13 Open Thread

Photo by Justin Ford/Getty Images The veteran Quarterback search continues! The free agency period is slowing down significantly but there still are some good players available. Obviously, the Vikings need a backup QB of some sort. He who shall not be named is off the radar apparently but there are still those who believe it is no dead yet. With Crab Legs Winston getting signed by the Gian...2025

• Vikings Links: Free Agency Day 11 Open Thread

Photo by Michael Hickey/Getty Images We are still waiting on the backup QB spot to be filled The signings continue to trickle in and the pickup of Rondale Moore was a nice addition to the wide receiver group. Moore turns 25 on June 9th and still has a lot of upside IMO. He is averaging 45 catches a year for 400 yards and 1 TD in his short career. He has been banged up and did not play last...2025

• Vikings Links: Free Agency Day 9 Open Thread

Photo by Brian Murphy/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images The team is steadily making moves! Free agency is now at the stage where small signings will all that we will probably see. The largest one will likely be for another QB whether that be you know who or someone else. The current cap space is still about 32M but that is without Jordan Mason included. The details are not out yet but here ...2025

• Vikings Links: Free Agency Day 6 Open Thread

Matt Krohn-Imagn Images Will there be anymore signings? The fifth day of free agency saw the team sign linebacker Eric Wilson and bring in wide receiver Rondale Moore for a visit. Other than that all that was left to talk about is you know who. The bane of the Vikings fans existence eh? My reading of the tea leaves suggests that the team has to have some kind of plan or idea of what they w...2025

• Minnesota Vikings News and Links: Free Agency Day 5 Open Thread

Photo by Robin Alam/ISI Photos/Getty Images We are going to need another QB right? The fourth day of free agency saw the team sign a decent backup swing tackle for probably not much. Very nice. I posted a comment yesterday about Aaron Rodgers not being due any money from the Jets for 2025. Thus, he needs a new contract and it will be important to what the money represents right? I do not s...2025

Photo by Stephen Maturen/Getty Images Will there be any moves today? The second day of free agency was very productive and filled a lot of the wish list needs for many long suffering Vikings fans. We got a new veteran center who excels at pass blocking and a new guard with lots of upside (hopefully). We got a new veteran defensive tackle who excels at pass rushing and possibly another vet...2025

Photo by James Black/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images The Sam Darnold chapter may not be closed yet I still am a little upset that the Bears for Joe Thuney for a 2026 4th. I would have given up the 3rd with the hope of getting back a 6th. You are talking All Pro caliber left guard. The Vikings needed that bad.

• Vikings Links: It’s Decision Day

Photo by Stacy Revere/Getty Images The Vikings do not look like they will use the franchise tag this year D-Day is here and all signs point to the Vikings allowing Sam Darnold to test the market. There are a few “reports” that they still want him back but at their own price. This falls in line with what I believe is Kwesi’s philosophy of not going past a price point with players. Perhaps D...2025

The obvious studs were Nick Emmanwori, Shemar Stewart, James Pierce Shemar Stewart is a DE prospect in the 2025 draft class. He scored an unofficial 9.99 #RAS out of a possible 10.00.

• Vikings Links: Let Us Continue To Beat The Horse

Photo by Stephen Maturen/Getty Images How many Quarterback scenarios can we dream up? I know that many fans feel like we have beaten the (who is the QB) horse to death already. Nah. We are just getting started IMO. There is a ton more wailing and gnashing of the teeth that we are capable of producing. Sounds like fun to me. I will say that it could be difficult for any veteran QB to get fu...2025

• Vikings Links: Should The Vikings Spend Big On A Guard?

Photo by Jason Mowry/Getty Images Will any of the top guards actually hit the open market? There was good news yesterday. The league announced the cap would fall between 277.5M and 281.5M. This gives the Vikings more cap space to try and sign free agents. Which free agents though? Obviously interior offensive line and defensive tackle are areas most want to see them address first. But corn...2025

Photo by Brandon Sloter/Image Of Sport/Getty Images Will the Vikings tag anyone? It is franchise tag starting day! Will the Vikings tag anyone? Rumor has it that they may tag Byron Murphy instead of Sam Darnold. A little note is that Sam Darnold, Stephon Gilmore, and Byron Murphy all had their contracts voided yesterday, February 17th. https://overthecap.com/contract-triggers-calenda...2025

• Minnesota Vikings News and Links: Let’s Be Aggressive

Photo by Kevin C. Cox/Getty Images Should the Vikings be aggressive in free agency? As we motor on towards the Combine and free agency, the QB question dominates the discussion. The interior offensive and defensive lines along with cornerback are also area of desperate need for upgrades. I wonder if a veteran QB will be comfortable signing a one year deal knowing full well that as soon as ...2025

• Vikings Links: What Is Your OffSeason Plan?

Photo by Gregory Shamus/Getty Images Plans are made to be changed no? I think the Vikings are more than likely going to try and bring back Daniel Jones to go with JJ McCarthy. KOC said in an interview that “Darnold has earned the right to go to free agency” or something along those lines. I do think the team does not want to tie up too much in the QB position regardless of 14 wins. It is...2025
