I think that he should probably retire but if he's ready to go all in one more year, I'd probably bring him back and try to limit his snaps as much as possible even potentially having him inactive on some game daysif he's being out played. Then draft a CB to develop within the first 3 rounds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SemperFeist Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 The Vikings need to find Newman’s replacement, regardless if he comes back or not. Last thing we want to to rely on a 40 year old CB. Even if he has been playing at a high level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vike daddy Posted February 10, 2018 Author Share Posted February 10, 2018 Analytics sites have paid attention to Harrison Smith all season, consistently grading him as the league’s top safety, and this week Sam Monson pegged Smith third overall in PFF’s annual “Top 101 Players” list. Monson said that Smith was the NFL’s best player across all positions during the regular season, but he “dropped a couple of spots” on the list after the Vikings struggled defensively against the Eagles in the NFC Championship game. Coming in at Nos. 1 and 2 on Monson’s list were Rams DT Aaron Donald and Patriots QB Tom Brady. http://www.vikings.com/news/lunch-break/article-1/Lunchbreak-Harrison-Smith-Ranked-by-PFF-as-No-3-Player-in-NFL-/1757157e-8f0d-4c3a-8436-af019eba5a3c?sf181795907=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swede700 Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 Quote A few weeks into his 16th NFL season and after celebrating his 40th birthday, Terence Newman will be added to the Kansas State Athletics Hall of Fame. http://www.vikings.com/news/lunch-break/article-1/Lunchbreak-Let-Debate-Begin-—-NFLcom-Lists-Vikings-All-Time-11-Best/d2de9670-7422-4fbb-9698-371982af59c9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelKing728 Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 It'd be nice if Terence could make the NFL Hall of Fame, but I think that's a pipedream. Maybe Hall of Very Good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SemperFeist Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 Newman has played a very long time, but his name isn’t synonymous with greatness. Not a Hall of Famer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skywindO2 Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 I recall many arguments between Vikings fans and Cowboys fans on this forum about Winfield vs Newman, so much time has passed since then. I still side with Winfield tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still side with Winfield tbh. I would as well. At their peaks, Winfield was still a better DB than Newman, but both were still pretty good on their own accord.

I'd give Newman a slight advantage in coverage, but Winfield a huge advantage in tackling. I'll go with Winfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gopherwrestler Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 I personally love him working with Sherman. One weakness of Rhodes is when he is stuck in something Zone. Sherman is great at the aspect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
