CriminalMind Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 (edited) He is not going to be on this roster (he’ll likely be cut before that happens), if he wants a faster resolution, he should advise the team he will be returning to facilities for his own walk through and answering reporters questions honestly.

Well, he has to show up for mini-camp, if he's still on the roster. If he's going to be moved, it's going to be before then. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could afford Cook. Also, if Cook is traded to Miami, don’t be surprised to see Mostert or Wilson as part of the trade. Mostert makes sense i think. I bet they'd keep Wilson. I want a day 2 pick. For that to happen, we'd probably have to give up a 4 or 5, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wcblack34 Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 No reason to take Mostert or Wilson as part of the trade. We have enough RBs on the roster and don't need to add their salary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have enough RBs on the roster and don't need to add their salary. Then Miami likely won’t take on Cook’s full salary. Cutting Cook saves $9M, while trading him saves $11M. Getting Mostert, or Wilson, back in a trade would cost $1.16M, or $1.08M respectively, still netting the Vikings more in savings than an outright release. Not to mention any draft compensation. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CriminalMind Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 Even if we only get a 6th that’s $11M in Cap savings. That would be a good outcome, given where things are now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelKing728 Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 I'm guessing a move will be made tomorrow? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fowler: “Teаmѕ I tаlked to belіeve the Vіkіngѕ аre oрen to а trаde аnd mаybe holdіng out for thаt. So, they held onto Cook’ѕ $14 mіllіon сар hіt for а whіle now аnd саn do ѕo а lіttle bіt longer іn the ѕhort-term.

I hear ya...I think we're all just in a waiting pattern. I fully expect something to happen prior to minicamp, just because that's required...and why require someone to come who's not going to be there in training camp.

And there isn't anyone out there we can read statements from who knows any more than we do. One thing you can say about Kwesi, is that he runs a leak proof ship. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
