According to Pro Football Focus, Dobbs' rushing grade ranks third among all quarterbacks. Only Jalen Hurts and Lamar Jackson have more rushing yards at the position. Dobbs has three rushing touchdowns on the season and has picked up 19 first downs on the ground. https://www.vikings.com/news/5-things-to-know-new-qb-joshua-dobbs?fbclid=IwAR2VVeB7TvKBr9irYb0eijU3hVYYiqZ-BiXAMjQoKFfnD28QBZ1uvuzRZDQ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vike daddy Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 Last year, Dobbs established the ASTROrdinary Dobbs Foundation, which is "a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting, encouraging and inspiring all members of our community, particularly the youth, through educational, economical, professional and recreational empowerment." Dobbs hopes to become a pilot and then astronaut, peaking with a trip to outer space. He has developed a relationship with NASA during his time in Jacksonville and Cleveland. He has also worked with companies like Cirrus Aircraft in Knoxville, Tennessee, and Scottsdale, Arizona. https://www.vikings.com/news/5-things-to-know-new-qb-joshua-dobbs?fbclid=IwAR2VVeB7TvKBr9irYb0eijU3hVYYiqZ-BiXAMjQoKFfnD28QBZ1uvuzRZDQ pretty damn interesting young man... he'll be 29 in January '24. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vike daddy Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 The Dobbs era in Arizona was fun while it lasted, and the Cards will always have that one weird, glorious win over the Cowboys. Arizona acquired Dobbs and a seventh round pick for a fifth-rounder, then dealt him along with a seventh round selection for a sixth-rounder. Was half a season of below-average quarterback play worth sliding back a round on Day 3? Probably not, but the Cardinals are in the business of losing games in 2023 and pumping up that draft spot. Dobbs got it done and was fun to watch throughout roughly half his Glendale tenure. For that, we salute him. https://ftw.usatoday.com/lists/joshua-dobbs-trade-grade-vikings-cardinals-kirk-cousins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VikeManDan Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 16 hours ago, Robb_K said: The Vikings will make a profit from the trade, by moving up several places in Round 6, AND gaining a 7th Rounder, just to take on Dobbs' contract. That isn't how conditional picks work, the 7th can turn into a 6th but we're not getting both picks. I think that is what you're saying above? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
