vikingsrule Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 I’m a bit surprised they are actually moving on from Linval but it’s a smart move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozzy Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 Sad to see them go, but both are not even half the players they once were and do not deserve the money they would have been paid this season. Mike Hughes currently as the only legit CB on the roster signed, and maybe Holton Hill but cannot really even include him. Hope we do not reach and just get a CB to get a CB regardless of value or need. I really hope it is not a situation where the Vikings have to draft Trevon Diggs to not piss off Stefon, that would be freaking awful. Trevon is a decent player but I would rather have AJ Terrell honestly or even Winfield at safety, or OL/DL would make a ton of sense also, but what Stefon will be butt hurt even more than he already has been if we do not take his brother? Some FA corners and defensive tackles. Logan Ryan Johnathan Joseph Prince Amukamara Jimmy Smith Jarran Reed Leonard Williams Gerald McCoy Jarran Reed might be able to be purchased for a reasonable price, and Jonathan Joseph is old but is a very good corner, and Prince Amukamara would not be crazy expensive either. Logan Ryan is ideal but might be out of the price range. Leonard Williams is interesting but with his age might cost a little much. Will be really interesting how they plan on filling all the holes that they have currently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENINCH Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 I like the idea of Reed. Joseph is already 35 years old. Vikings would never draft a player to make another player happy unless is made sense for the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fact is Trevon Diggs makes sense for the team and they need a CB no doubt now that Rhodes is gone. And with Stefon, the dude was recently seen working out with a Arizona Cardinals shirt on, so honestly the guy is either really stupid or just wants to leave the team because he is not getting the ball enough. Say AJ Epenesa drops and they do move on from Everson Griffen, or say Gallimore is there in the 1st round. They take Trevon Diggs just because of Stefon and to make him happy? Trevon has not worked out yet to show his athletic ability, and who knows if the Bama pro day will take place, Gallimore showed at the combine he is a beast athletically and Epenesa is a great pass rusher based on his production. They pass on either of them just to make Stefon happy? Sadly I bet they would if they really want to please Stefon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SemperFeist Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 I doubt these will be the only moves we hear about to create space. And, I’d be a little shocked if we don’t hear about an extension for either Waynes or Alexander. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alexander maybe because I cannot imagine he would be asking for a ton of cash, he might be fine with around 2 million a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zimmer said his position isn't that important in this defense and he's already 29 years old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh my goodness, might as well retire, five years in the league and he is done? No, he is well worth a 3 year contract and is a better defensive back than Alexander or Waynes especially of late. Not important? It will be important if the only legit safety they have to start the season is Harrison Smith. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
