Chicago desperate to put weapons around Trubisky. They got a ton of cap space, so why not.

I think he’s an under radar alternative to Allen Robinson 

 

Sort of... ARob is a true #1 or X receiver.  Jordan Matthews does most of his best work from the slot.  He's a great guy for Cam because his natural abilities are to find holes in a zone, particularly when plays break down and the QB is looking for a big set of hands on the move.  

He's exactly the type of signing we need to push Smith to a role where he can be of value.

And there will likely be no consequences. Tampering is just a way of life in the NFL.

I am a little surprised that Watkins got 16 per year.  Oh well we weren't going that high anyway.

This just isn’t fair.

Vikings supposedly win the biggest trophy this off-season, Kirk Cousins. Don’t understand why this guy is the #1 free agent.

Is he really that much of an upgrade over Keenum?

Danny woodhead released by Baltimore.  I know we don't need him since he is an older cmc but I always liked him.

Agreed.  I actually think the vikes offense will take a step back.

They arent banking on Keenum having another good year. He's been ass is whole career so they believe he's more of what he's always shown versus what they got this past season
