Plus, while I like seeing Mack come back. Coming back on a vet minimum deal doesn’t guarantee him anything. That's all he's getting? Maybe he'll be competing with Hughes for a roster spot. I could see them wanting to keep Hand and/ or a mid round rookie at the back of the depth chart although I wonder if someone will move to safety Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has the 13th highest cap hit on the team and may be less in our future plans than Harrison Hand or a rookie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelKing728 Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 Since we are bringing back former Vikings and we need a backup QB... How capable would Jeff George be at handing the ball off to Dalvin Cook?!?

And cutting him only saves around $500K towards the cap, which is less than it would cost for another corner to replace him on the roster.

Would seem like a logical move given that there’s likely an easier path to sticking as a Safety than as a CB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus Zimmer doesn't seem to put a lot of resources into that position. It's a bit weird though since he puts a premium on CB. Maybe its because Harrison Smith is so good that the SS isn't asked to do much or its just the scheme. Either way, we may not be in such a bad situation. Hand could be looking at being Zimmer's newest starter at SS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
