Reports say that the Vikings are looking to make a deal to acquire wide receiver D.J. Chark Jr. From the Detroit Lions. At 6 ft 4 in tall and runs the 40 yd dash in 4.34 seconds he would be a welcome addition to an already outstanding receiving team with JJ, K.J.Osborne ,T.J. Hockenson and the possibility of Adam Theilen remaining with the team. Well we'll have to wait and see how this one develops.

DJ Chark fun fact: he fumbled the ball following his first NFL reception, but then has not had another fumble since, in 5 seasons and almost 200 receptions.

Why would the lions trade him and what would his value be?

Chark signed a one-year, $10 million flier last offseason and unfortunately missed Weeks 4-11 due to injury, but he finished the year quite strong as the Lions turned their season around down the stretch.

Chark has now twice said he’d like to re-sign with the Lions, most recently this past week on teammate Amon-Ra St. Brown’s podcast. Not that he would say anything else to Lions’ reporters or during a podcast with a teammate, which has to be noted.

 

Down to the brass tacks, Spielberger projects a three-year, $35 million deal for Chark–$11.66 million per year–with $23.5 million in total guarantees. Spotrac also has Chark’s calculated market value at a three-year deal, but at $9.58 million per year ($28.75 million total).

More than a two-year deal, or at least with much or any guaranteed money beyond two years, feels a little aggressive for Chark. In terms of money, $11.6 million per year feels high and $9.5 million might be the low-end of what he can get.
