sjfja_fkdldjs Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 I just realized. Most of the WR's we draft over the last like 25 years (starting with Moss) was drafted in the early twenties... lol Even Rice was drafted 2nd round, but early twenties. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swede700 Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 Alec Lewis' 10-step program for the Vikings this offseason: Quote 1. Present Kirk Cousins with a short-term offer 2. Prioritize the contention window in negotiations with edge rusher Danielle Hunter 3. Prepare for a bridge quarterback if Cousins signs elsewhere 4. Cut defensive tackle Dean Lowry 5. Pursue pay cuts with defensive tackle Harrison Phillips and cornerback Byron Murphy Jr. 6. If Harrison Smith wants to return, negotiate another pay cut 7. Sign two edge rushers, a defensive tackle, a linebacker, a left guard, a No. 3 receiver and swing massively on at least one free-agent defender 8. Draft a QB regardless of the Cousins situation, but be realistic about the inherent uncertainty 9. Use premium draft resources on defensive line/edge rusher 10. Extend Justin Jefferson and Christian Darrisaw https://theathletic.com/5276165/2024/02/15/vikings-offseason-plan-cousins-jefferson/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I like Alec, he's certainly not nearly as in-depth as guys like Graff and Arif were. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SemperFeist Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 I can’t say that I’m a fan of Alec. All his articles are basically just summaries of the previous day’s or week’s Twitter discourse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vike daddy Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Vikings offensive coordinator Wes Phillips is set to enter a guilty plea in Hennepin County Court on Friday to settle charges related to his DWI arrest from December 2023. Court records show, via FOX 9, that Phillips is going to plead guilty to an amended charge of careless driving. Phillips was stopped around 11 p.m. on December 8 and charged with fourth-degree DWI because he had a blood alcohol content of .10, which is over the legal limit in Minnesota. Phillips said after the arrest that he didn’t live up to the standards of the Vikings or the NFL and that he would accept “whatever discipline may come down the road” as a result of the arrest. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/vikings-oc-wes-phillips-to-plead-guilty-to-careless-driving-to-settle-dwi-arrest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes and he should face the consequences but being .02 over the limit is different than being double over the limit imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over the limit is over the limit. Should be no gradation of consequences. The punishment is the punishment as a deterant... Hopefully.

The car kills at .08 just the same as it does at .16. Additionally, he was obviously driving impaired enough to get pulled over. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
