2013 MN Vikings Pre-Season (maybe even season) thread

St. Clown

Liberal Rebel Scum, apparently
I couldn't find any Vikings thread newer than 2011, so I'm starting a new one.

The Vikes open the free agency period by trading Percy Harvin to Seattle for a #1, and 7 this year, and a 2014 #3. They re-sign Phil Loadholt and cut the aging Antoine Winfield. These are the moves that I know have absolutely happened. I thought that I heard Jerome Simpson was re-signed, too, but I've not seen anything official on that. Nothing's been announced with making actual free agent signings.

I like the Harvin deal. The man became a nuisance in the locker room, even though he was a great player on the field.

Loadholt's re-signing is a good thing as AP likes to run to the right, and Loadholt is a big man and does a decent enough job.

Antoine might come back, but for less money. CB is actually pretty deep for this team, but not a great position for the Vikes.


Given Harvin's departure, I'm expecting WRs in round 1 this year.

When does this year's Poach-a-Packer get done?

Jennings is waiting by the phone. :p:D
 
Re: 2013 MN Vikings Pre-Season (maybe even season) thread

From what I've heard, Winfield is not going to be re-signed.

Per Adam Schefter. Greg Jennings is a Minnesota Vikings.

Greg Jennings reached agreement with...the Vikings. Vikings are giving Greg Jennings a five-year deal.

it is a 5 years deal for Jennings. We now have a playmaking WR. we still gonna draft one in April draft. But Ponder now has a weapon.

So basically we traded Harvin for Jennings and a bunch of picks. Heck of a deal. Now go get Victor Cruz. :)
 
Re: 2013 MN Vikings Pre-Season (maybe even season) thread

Long as he can stay healthy. That was his issue obviously this/last year.

Seemed like a class guy while he was here. Wish these guys would find somewhere else to go although Sharper was a tool here and nobody missed him.

FYP

Or if it is Ponder, then Jennings better practice his routes within 5 yards.

I think if we add one more wideout then we'll know if Pinder really was improving down the stretch or it was a fluke.
