I don't think he fits many teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They seem to really think more highly of their roster than I did with these "all-in" moves. The Vikings fans looking for any way to cope in the comments is quite sad. I mean, in a vacuum they got two good players, but from a team-building lens it's whacky process. Hopefully they can hit on some UDFA's because those guys will be pulling purple jerseys in the next couple of years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've essentially traded away next year's draft (including this current one) for McCarthy and Turner. That's baffling to me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was a good draft in the sense that they clearly got the players they wanted. Turner was good value, and while I don't live McCarthy, clearly the Vikings did. It's a terrible draft in terms of the value they gave up to get to that point. I do think both of those things can be true at the same time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think its more if you can make it worth the draft pick + contract. That said, if you have the cap space, its not the hardest sell to trade for him.

11sanchez11 Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 Want Newton for AZ but I doubt they go for him. They signed 2 DTs in FA, drafted Robinson, and like Dante Stills who they drafted last year. Probably Cooper or Koolaid 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he fits many teams. People overthink this way too much. He's a dominant freak with the ball in his hands. He's a guy that works versus zone and not so much against man. You give him some slants, in-breakers and bubbles and let him do his things...these really aren't exclusive to Shanny and like half the teams in the league run some variation of the offense.

Beyond that, Joe Brady came up under Sean Payton, who made use of both Reggie Bush and Kamara in similar capacities. I think NFL fans fall into the habit of judging Joe Brady off of what he was stuck doing with Teddy Bridgewater, a beyond-broken Cam, and Sam Darnold... not to mention some pretty hapless OL's... and they still made quality use of Curtis Samuel (who is kind of a poor man's Deebo anyway - and might be the biggest impetus to Deebo on Buffalo's roster currently). But with regard to Samuel, if you can get the better/younger (albeit not by a ton) version for a middling investment, why not do it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also wouldn't be if it were a situation where they give up like pick 124 + Deebo for pick 68 from the Pats and basically just do a pick swap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean I see your point. I just think he isn't reaching the highs he has with Shanny in a lot of other spots personally. He would clearly be an asset to numerous teams, but is he having the same level of success? I have my doubts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, if JJ McCarthy is their franchise QB and Dallas Turner turns into an impact pass rusher, nobody is going to care about those future picks.
