We wont go after him, that would be admitting our WRs suck something the FO seems unwilling to do.

So I guess cutting ties with Ealy, getting 2 veteran secondary players, or acquiring Julius Peppers doesn't count as admitting they screwed up and fixing the problem?

I said admitting our WRs suck. Not the team itself. Cmon man reading comprehension.

This is one that we can slow play.  There is no trade market for a 30 year old WR at his salary.  They will (90% or greater chance) cut him.  A vet pickup like this for cheap isn't admitting fault or being desperate, simply smart and savvy.

Uhhhhh... Benjamin is unproven and unreliable.

Bull poo right here guys. KB put up almost same number as his rookie season coming of an injury on a dysfunctional offense.

 

The real culprit is Devin Funchess who hasn't produced anything near the amount of picks we wasted on.

Only because he was our #1 receiver and got #1 receiver targets.  His production is pretty bad for a #1 guy.  Hell Ginn had a little less yards and more touchdowns in 2015 as the #1 than Benji did last year and I don't think anyone would call Ginn reliable.

Benjamin has a lot to prove and get better at.

Base salary $7.5M.

Cap hit $8.75M.

Ain't gonna happen.

On top of it ain't gonna happen, that's a lot of money to pay to a concussion-prone receiver.

    • Per Bill Barnwell  Vikings bring back a familiar face Vikings get: WR Adam Thielen Panthers get: 2026 sixth-round pick, 2027 seventh-round pick A reunion between Thielen and his former team seems too easy. The Vikings are struggling with injuries at wide receiver and a potential Jordan Addison suspension. The Panthers want to see what they have with their younger wideouts, and Hunter Renfrow's emergence in camp as a potential fourth or fifth option could squeeze a roster spot for Thielen, who doesn't play special teams. The problem is Thielen's $6.25 million base salary. The Vikings obviously would prefer the Panthers cut the 34-year-old and pick him up for free, but Carolina already paid Thielen a $1.5 million roster bonus earlier in the offseason, suggesting it expected to have him. His salary isn't yet guaranteed, but it will become so if he's on the roster in Week 1, leaving the Panthers until then to make a decision. If he does get released, he isn't likely to get anything close to $6.25 million from another team, so he also is facing some uncertainty. All sides involved probably would need to give a bit to make a mutually advantageous deal work. The Panthers would eat $1.5 million of Thielen's contract, getting two of the three picks the Vikings got from the Jets in the Harrison Phillips trade in return. Thielen would take a $1 million pay cut in return for having the remaining $3.8 million guaranteed. The Vikings cleared out almost exactly that much when they made the Phillips trade, allowing them to absorb what's left of Thielen's contract as part of the deal. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/46053274/nfl-preseason-trades-2025-team-offers-players-draft-picks-contracts
    • From JoeBucsFan. Teams don't usually waste 2nd round picks like that. Kind of sounds like they think he just doesn't belong in the NFL.
