Gotta feel good as a Vikings fan - Laquan Treadwell hasn't developed, but Diggs and Thielen both turned into fine WRs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta feel good as a Vikings fan - Laquan Treadwell hasn't developed, but Diggs and Thielen both turned into fine WRs. Thielen signed his 4 year/$19.2 million deal coming off a 967/5 season in 2016 and turned around to break out further in 2017 with a 1,276/4 season so the Vikings certainly got lucky that they signed him when they did. That contract looks like a bargain right now but the Vikes may show a sign of good faith if he continues his success. As for Treadwell, he's been the talk of the off-season, I guess. Maybe he's finally turning a corner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soko Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Lots of change, more than I’d be willing to risk with Diggs. He’s a great player when healthy though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Buck Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Extremely happy to hear about Diggs. Now I'm hoping we can get Trae Waynes signed to another contract. He is very underrated IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BleedTheClock Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 "Can You Dig It Suckaaa" was a game I played with my buddies in grade school. It was H-O-R-S-E, but with the word S-U-C-K-A. The rules? Let's say it's my turn. I smash my knuckles together as hard as I can. The next person can take the letter or attempt to "dig it" and not be a "sucka." We were so dumb. Oh, and this is a nice move for the Vikings. Diggs is a beast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because isn't Thielen a FA next year? https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/minnesota-vikings/yearly/cap/ Hasn't been updated for the Diggs contract, but there's the breakdown. Thielen seems to be under contract for next year and then 2 years after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
