The Gnat Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 I'm not too shocked by that, TJ Hockenson, even if he wasn't always the downfield target, is someone the defense needs to pay attention to more. So that means that the LB's probably aren't getting as deep in zones to make sure that they account for him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After TJ, the depth of the passes increased, and the frequency of targeted areas decreased. We became less predictable on the routes/targets, and started throwing farther downfield. Sweet!

Yeah I don't see how Kwesi doesn't; considering the cost they gave up for him and how well he fits with K/O offense. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vike daddy Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 because we didn't win any playoff games, the conditional 4th we received from the Lions stays at a 4th, and doesn't drop to a 5th. where are the Lions picking in rounds?

vike daddy Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 Most Receptions by a TE, First 10 Games with a Franchise, Since 1970: T.J. Hockenson, MIN (60) Kellen Winslow, CLE (56) Keith Jackson, PHI (54) Tony Gonzalez, KC (52)Jermaine Wiggins, MIN (51) Hock: “That’s not really anything I’m focused on. I mean, it is what it is. I think that’s no secret that that’s coming up, but that’s not a focus that I’m worried about. I’m just out here playing football, having fun with the guys, really enjoying the city of Minneapolis and trying to get around these fans." https://vikingsterritory.com/2023/news/top_news/mystery-dwindles-on 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vike daddy Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 Vikings general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah traded for Hockenson at last year’s trade deadline, and the man immediately seized Minnesota’s offense by the throat. In fact, onboarding Hockenson can reasonably be considered Adofo-Mensah’s wisest move to date as the Vikings boss. Thankfully for the Vikings and the team’s fans’ sake, an upcoming Hockenson extension isn’t too mysterious — it just eventually has to get done. It’s akin to Jefferson’s status throughout the offseason, where Vikings leaders affirmed for five months that extending Jefferson was a no-brainer, yet the deal hasn’t been finalized. Hockenson lives in that territory, too. ESPN’s Kevin Seifert: “While the Vikings’ financial attention has been occupied elsewhere this offseason, most notably in a complicated contract negotiation with All-Pro receiver Justin Jefferson, it’s clear they plan to address Hockenson’s deal as well. Progress is more likely to take place later this summer.” The 25-year-old grabbed 60 receptions in 10 games as a Viking, a pace fetching 102 catches if spanned to a 17-game season. The 60 receptions were also the most in NFL history by a tight end in his first 10 games with a franchise. https://vikingsterritory.com/2023/news/analysis/needing-a-contract?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=facebook Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SemperFeist Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 Hockenson’s deal should be pretty easy. Somewhere between $14M and $15M AAV. I would think Dallas Goedert’s contract would be an easy reference point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteelKing728 Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 If he's healthy, I could see Hockenson being a top 3 TE this season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robb_K Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 (edited) I just read that, per Kevin Seifert, a resolution on Hockenson's extension can be expected soon. I didn't know that serious negotiations on that contract had even started yet. I thought that Kwesi would be concentrating heavily on reaching an acceptable agreement with Hunter before he could devote ANY time to Hockenson's, or even Jefferson's deals.

SemperFeist Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 It’s not like Kwesi talks to one agent at a time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
