Brandon Zylstra showed a lot of promise

You can say some of his yards were in garbage time, but he made two to three exceptional catches against the Saints starters.

We really need a #3 WR/possession receiver with how poorly Wright has played, and we have him under contract for peanuts for a few more years.

Brandon Zylstra has a lot in common with Adam Thielen (not saying he's that good).

Both developed by the Vikings, look very similar in appearance, undrafted out of college from tiny schools no one has ever heard of (in the Midwest), no D1 scholarship offers.

Both 6'2 and 210 pounds, keep an eye out on this guy next year in training camp.

Lol Zylstra made multiple catches today better than anything Bersin ever made.

Definitely should have role on next year's team

IMHO, our receiving corp should have been sufficient with an all world player in CMC. 

Give these guys a legitimate NFL caliber offensive line and QB and this is a different conversation

Wright hasn't played poorly...

    • I'd hold on to Walker - we have no OT depth at all. Freeling is a block of clay - all the tools are there and he appears to have a great attitude. He needs serious work on his technique to realise his potential though.
    • From my watch last night: They weren't trading out of 19 unless it was a daft offer once Freeling got there. They were clearly antsy to get Hunter - and Minnesota actually called to offer the trade down. They weren't trading out of the third round pick once Brazzell fell to it (and Canales would have been happy with him in the second round). They traded back a lot on Day 3 - even if Morgan 'Babe Ruth'd' it with Lee, Hecht and Wheatley; they clearly weren't the only guys they would have taken at those picks. I'm curious to know which player caused the reaction at the start of day 2 (Dan Morgan): "of course they'd pick him"
    • Watching this confirms that this staff and front office is super high on Monroe Freeling. I wouldn't be surprised if he's gotta a real chance to win the starting LT job in camp. If he does, we can look to flip Rasheed Walker to a contender desperate for tackle help.   As for Ickey I still really like him and wanna extend him but based on how the staff was talking about Freeling it might be time for ickey to start taking some practice sets at guard if he wants to stay here as we are gonna have to have figure out a solution for the contracts of Lewis and Hunt.  My preferred scenario for the Oline in 2027 is Freeling-Ickey-Hech-Lewis-Moton.
