SemperFeist Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 Based on last year, and his lack of snaps during the preseason, it's pretty obvious that the team only sees Wright as a healthy scratch/injury protection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SemperFeist Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Rewatching some of the game, one thing that will get overlooked in this game is Treadwell. Bradford may not have the chemistry/trust in him yet, but Treadwell was getting open. And that's a very good thing to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I think he will continue to do so, until Floyd comes back...as Adams is going to be the scratch likely every week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy to see him getting some snaps and snagging what I believe was his only target. The only way is up from here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Serious question. If Diggs and Theilen continue to perform as well as they did last night, and if Treadwell develops chemistry with Bradford in the next two weeks. What, if anything, is Floyds' role upon return from suspension? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I also wouldn't be shocked if he's released. He certainly did not stand out or impress during preseason Because of his suspension, I don't think his contract becomes guaranteed until he's on the roster in week 5. If the receiving corps is running well over the 1st 4 games, Floyd may not be needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SemperFeist Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 I don't think Floyd got any snaps with the 1st team in the preseason. That could also be a factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swede700 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 I thought that Floyd did fine in the preseason and don't see any way that he'd be cut. He'll be a valuable receiver, as he's probably one of, if not the best blockers amongst the receivers and still is a fairly consistent receiver with far more upside than any of the others outside of Diggs and Thielen. It's far more likely that it's either Adams or Wright that gets cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingsrule Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 I guess another question that could be asked, at what point do we entertain the idea of trading Treadwell? Diggs and Thielen are legit starters. Floyd should be a decent third WR. Wright is fine as a 3rd WR. Diggs injury history is somewhat worrisome. No one saw Thielen emerging as he did when Treadwell was drafted, but does he potentially have more value to another team than the Vikes as a 3rd/4th WR?

I wouldn't even entertain the idea until 2018, more likely 2019. Diggs will likely get his extension next year, and Jarius Wright's salary will probably fall off, so there's no need to do anything with Treadwell until 2019.
