True I would think. Why pay veterans salary when a rookies salary is capped? Plus a young hungry RB too.

We just paid for a solid veteran runnung back, why pay for another? I rather draft our future back and have him learn behind Gore. Since it's a deep draft, this will be a perfect opportunity to draft one.

Wouldn't mind it. As productive as Boom was during the past year, he is replaceable too.

Gore, Moreno, 4th rounder in a deep RB draft, would be a nice backfield.

I think Moreno is an injury risk that makes it difficult to commit a roster spot. I think that's the issue.

that is true and we did look at him and bring him in for a workout but might be something there the FO doesn't like

He is still trying to come back from a torn Achilles has no burst that injury is bad news for RB the reason I don't see Ballard back.

Moreno I like him but might as well go Bradshaw If we are going injury prone vet.

Young mans position draft to groom behind Gore. Booms and the rookie battle for #2. That would put us 3 deep.

And it's my opinion Freeman is better than Luck. Both of our opinions are ridiculous, but they're ours.

And I'm perfectly calm, thank you.

CL, 

 

I like you, but let me know when I'm about to step on your last nerve. I'm only saying that because I never want to royally tick you off for any reason. 

 

We're cool & I realize you're probably being sarcastic. I get that. I just never wanna get on your bad side. I know your response wasn't addressed to me personally. There's just certain members I really like who I never want to be on the receiving end of & you're one of those select few. Just think of this post as a goodwill gesture that if I ever upset you it's nothing intentional immunity thing capiche? Are we clear? LOL!  :hat:

Everytime I see that Natl. Anthem image of Knowshown, I always wonder if he's shedding tears & saying to himself "Why in god's name did I leave Peyton Manning, the Broncos, & the best success I ever had?"

 

I know; I know. He went to Miami to get paid more money, but in my heart of hearts, I know Moreno misses what #18 meant to his career: Everything. He was washed up before Manning made him relevant again.

Wouldn't have a problem with it except it would tie up a roster spot that we will likely want to use for a drafted RB.  Myself and a lot of others wanted to sign a FA and draft one.  Gore was our FA.  I'd like to get one in the draft to be more of a long term solution.

      I'm excited about our future. I think Ballard put together 2 very nice drafts in a row. Never thought we would get Latu, thought we had a better chance at Bowers. Still holding out hope for Cross, he flashes greatness than dissappears, hope he's consistent. Hope Woods takes lead in TE room. I keep writing off Granson, but he keeps impressing. Even if Richardson has a mediocre season I think the team around him could get us to 10-7.

      Harrison Butker's shocking speech, Chiefs probably not going to 3 peat

      By VikingsFanInChennai · Posted

      I think you understood his words in a "positive" way, but that's not what he said.   He DID NOT say that "most of you would choose to get married..."   That's your implication. Of course, only women can bring children in this world and most of the women will choose to be married and have children, but that's not exactly what he said.   He said, "doing so - while some others will go on to lead successful career in the world - will take you closer to God's Will"    Here's what he said from the transcript:    He could've said, "even if you go on to have a very successful career, and get the greatest accolades of the world, I think the most important title of a woman is :  Homemaker. And, that would take you closer to God's Will"    But, he didn't say so because he wanted to say exactly what he believes women should do and brought God into that by saying that's His Will.    I think he made a mistake of implying that women are generally excited about marriage and having kids and being a homemaker, when that's only part of a woman's life - even though that could be the most cherished and blessed part of the life.   He only looked at how that made his wife's life - his words, not his wife's words by the way - and projected that to all the women.

      This happens every single year and every single year people worry about the occasional unsigned rookie when we haven't even gotten into June yet.   Guys/gals... it's really a big nothing burger. Ever since the NFL introduced rookie scale contracts this has been a non-issue. Everything important in those contracts has been made non-negotiable. The negotiable things are largely minutiae - it's about schedule of payment...it's about off-set language, or language about voiding salary payments(for example - can the team void payments for suspensions and stuff like that), etc.   There are two cases I remember in the last 10 years where this has become a problem and the player has actually missed training camp practices because of it - Joey Bosa(because of schedule of payments dispute) and Roquan Smith(because of dispute about the language about voiding payments for suspensions because of play). And as you see... Both of those were top 10 picks. (i.e. more money on the line)...   Holdouts/holdins of day 2 and day 3 picks are pretty much unheard of. I personally couldn't find a single case when I looked for it.    AD seems to be taking part in both rookie mini camp and in OTAs and hasn't missed any practice, we haven't heard about any sort of dispute so far, so my assumption would be there is nothing to see here and it's all formality.    So yeah... Unless we hear there is a problem I would just assume everything is good.
