For a guy Vikings fans clamor is washed, it is interesting to note that his supposed zero separation is not as bad as they would claim it is.

Sure, his best days are likely behind him, but he certainly does not appear to be done just yet.

Could very well still have a bit of gas in the tank, and hopefully the Panthers use it to their advantage. At the least, his veteran presence and red zone production is a positive add to a young WR room, and a great swiss army knife for a rookie QB to utilize.

This is promising but we need to pump our breaks a bit. Not trying to sound like a party pooper,  but the variables aren’t the same when comparing some of the best wide receivers in the game. Thielen wasn’t lining up against Jalen Ramsey or Stephen Gilmore regularly with his all-pro counterpart Jefferson on the other side.  He regularly lined up against the #2 corner from the opposing team. That can’t be ignored when taking this kind of statistic into consideration. 

All things considered I still think he’s an excellent route runner and Thielen will find tons of openings due to his route running and expertise.

He probably gonna man the slot here so still probably won’t draw the no 1 corner

I’ve seen more people complaining about his contract than unwarranted enthusiasm.

One could argue he was the Premeire WR available in free agency(yes this class wasn’t great), with only his age being the biggest knock against him. 

With more targets he may actually end up having a better season this year with us than he did last year with Minnesota. 

Sure would be nice to acquire more talent at the position but hard to argue we aren’t better with him than without him.

I'd always thought that his extremely precise route running was his greatest strength. To always be at the exact spot you're supposed to be at is a marvelous tool.

Yes, he might be at the later years of his career, but we can use a veteran, professional pass catcher with no history of being a diva. That's exactly what our next QB will need.

Glad we've got him! Didn't think we'd be able to, though.

Meyers had elite separation too. That's what excellent route running does for you.

That's why I roll my eyes when people whine about the Thielen signing. You don't lose elite route running ability.

      A lot of people think this draft is weak at QB--I think, after the first five picks of the first round, there are a ton of developmental QBs who could develop into the role--here is the psychology behind it--Bryce becomes the mentor--you can learn as much by teaching others than by being taught.   It also makes him a true leader.  But I think there are a few QB in this draft that might not be ready now, but in 2 years, could be NFL starting QBs--Howard, Rourke, Ewers, Milroe, Dart, etc.  Talk about a cheaper backup and one that could evolve into trade capital--or if Bryce can't find consistency-his replacement.  Round 3 will have some of these qbs--maybe early day 3.
