I wonder if we could trade Funchess for OL?

It would definitely be a Hurney 2.0 move and one I would be ok with since he's in the last year of his contract.

That being said, Funchess showed the potential to be a good #2 WR last year.

And you know he is going to show up every week and even play hurt, something KB wouldn't do.

Oh Kelvin stuck a nail in the “move on” column.

im good with Funchess— I’m just saying that with DJ, Samuel, Wright and Torrey— then having Ian and Olsen,.. Funchess becomes an OL candidate,...

im sure Funchess will ball out this year, he’s young, contract year and hungry—

then again, All the other receivers will ball out too, all hungry for their reasons, starting over, rookie, whatever.

Samuel’s two first half catches came when the Bills went into prevent and he just ate up the cushion, nothing special. He obviously wasn’t aware of the down and distance on the 3rd down catch on the crossing route because he headed for the sideline instead of trying to get the 1st resulting in a punt.

The ball he caught in the second half he never should’ve jumped for. He gave back all the separation he created leaving himself no chance for any YAC. He needs to stay on the ground and catch that ball so he can immediately turn up field. He got stupid separation on that route so you hate to see him waste it like that. *** Yes I know the ball was a little high and hopefully Cam puts in a better spot for him than whichever shitty backup was in at that time. 

Nonetheless it was nice to see him contribute, baby steps I suppose, he’s still raw as hell. It was a nice look when they went him, Moore and Byrd there in the 3rd Q I believe it was. That’s lots of speed.

Lol wut?

Other than tearing his ACL KB didn’t miss a game. Despite having a welt on his knee the size of a bowling ball after taking a hit in the Eagles game he played the following game. 

Some of you are so out to lunch it’s amazing.

We don’t need to trade Fun Fun.

it was a problem when all we put on the field on passing downs was Olsen, Kelvin and Fun Fun.  All our targets were too similar.  Made life easy on a D. 

We need to go to the polar opposite route and just have a bunch of comparable guys. 

We need compliments and will have that this year.

    • Why don't we just say they can shove the late round draft picks up their ass? If they want a player they will be starting at WR in Week 1, I want a MLB in return that we can start Week 1. Starter for a Starter Not Starter for a draft pick we'll be debating whether or not they should make the final 53 man roster in 2026.
    • Why?   No. This isn't a situation of a player we want to trade because we have no use for them.  He's our starting slot WR, our leader of the young WR room, Bryce's safety option the last 2 years who he has good chemistry with. If the Vikings didn't run into WR trouble, we'd never have been even considering trading him, so why in the world should we give him up for fair market value in a vacuum for Thielen and disregard what losing him off our roster will do for us this year? A 5th round pick in 2026 is a negligible draft pick, especially with this season being so make or break for Bryce and Canales.
    • The Vikings acquiring all these late round picks has me feeling like we're about to see another CMC situation play out here. Trade a player we really like for the equivalent of what we want for them on the draft pick chart, but because of a bunch of late round picks instead of the one pick value we actually want. Which will do the same thing in the end, nothing, because 6th and 7th round picks rarely work out to begin with, or we're just going to use them to move up 10 picks in the 3rd or 4th round to take another DJ Johnson
