Would seem like PR is a need just to get Raeger off the team. And it's not like he's Dante Hall back there. ISM was cheaper, a more capable receiver, didn't cost draft compensation, and wasn't that big of a downgrade at PR (all other things considered). Although ISM did win that Bears game for us... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yesterday was a bad game, but just a couple weeks ago he made some great plays that had people calling for him to see the field more. I said it in another thread, or earlier in this one, but I’m very interested in seeing what a full offseason in the offense, and a full offseason working with McCardell could do for Reagor. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a 1st rounder for a reason. He clearly is struggling in his mental awareness on the field, but if they can get a full offseason with him and if he is dedicated to improvement (which is always a question), he certainly has the skills to be developed.

vikesfan89 Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 3 days ago a lot of people were thinking that he should maybe be getting more snaps than Osborn. I think we could do a lot worse for a4th WR. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelKing728 Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 I'm trying to think of the best trio of receivers we've had. We have this years group (Jefferson, Thielen, Osborn) the 2017 group (Thielen, Diggs, Wright), 2009 (Rice, Berrian, Harvin) and of course 1998 (Moss, Carter, Reed) If we had to rank them (best to worst) it would go: 1998 2022 2009 2017 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every bone in my body is telling me this Vikings team is fraudulent but when you watch them the offensive talent is undeniable. Theres something to be said about them winning these close games in improbable fashion, there are maybe a handful of teams explosive enough to pull it off and the Vikings are one of them. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never thought that either but I would like Raeger to get close to 10 plays a game to mix it up a little and to give Thielen a few more plays off to keep him fresh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vike daddy Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 Thielen: "It's unbelievable. I came in here and shed tears thinking about it. All of the things that we've been through, and to be down by 33 at half, and come back with this team, with that fight to go and win the game, it's definitely something crazy to think about." 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two HOFers in their primes (and yes, rookie Randy was already in prime form) and Jake Reed had a couple 1000 yard seasons too. 2) 2017 - Prime Thielen was an All-Pro caliber guy. Diggs is going to be a HOFer and was just shy of peak form. Wright was very solid. 3) 2022 - JJ is in HOF form. Maybe even rounding into GOAT form. However, Thielen is clearly on the downside of his career. He's old reliable now, but he's not a home run threat anymore. KJ is getting better and looking like he's ready to make a jump to a legit #2, but the consistency isn't there yet. 4) 2009 - Rice had a career year. Harvin was a gadget guy, but was one of the best screen/YAC guys ever. Berrian, was a decent deep threat. But this group was made by Brett Favre. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArcticNorseman Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 I have to ask, "Where's Sammy White, Ahmad Rashad, and Bob Grim, or Anthony Carter, Hassan Jones and Leo Lewis?" Definitely different eras back then, and maybe these guys don't live up to 3-Deep . . . But, Fran and Two-minute Tommy got all those yards somehow. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
