Honestly hope we don't sign a RB. I get you want to plug holes and/or allow yourself to go BPA in draft, but i would rather address in draft 1x late round, 1x UDFA

Yeah, it's a deep RB class. Take advantage of it. There will be a number of day three RBs out of this draft class who will be solid NFL contributors.

They need a kick returner to replace Blackshear. Now that guy doesn't have to be a RB of course but they need to figure out who that is. I'm against signing a RB as well but they need some sort of rotation at the position.

Vikings closing in on deal with two-time Pro Bowler

We might need to start a separate live blog where we only break down Vikings' free agency moves, because they are busy this morning. On top of adding Jonathan Allen and Will Fries, the team is also closing in on a deal with Javon Hargarve, NFL Media reports. 

Hargrave is expected to be released by the 49ers on Wednesday and when that happens, he'll likely be signing with the Vikings. He'll be joining Jonathan Allen on a suddenly loaded defensive line. 

The only knock on Hargraves is that he's 32 and coming off a season where he missed 14 games due to a partially torn right triceps.

I don't get why Greenlaw went for that cheap. I would much rather have Greenlaw than Wharton who we paid more for. We still need competent linebackers.

35 million for a guy coming off a horrible injury isn't cheap.

aside from the fact he probably had no interest in playing with a bottom dweller at this point in his career.

He's young and suffered the injury in the superbowl. He's still very much a pro bowl linebacker. Terrell Suggs suffered the same injury and went on to play at an elite level for 5 more years

ok now do the part where he wants to play on the worst defense in nfl history at the backend of his career

Which QB will have the better 2025 season?

Sam Darnold in Seattle

Geno Smith in Las Vegas

Justin Fields in New York

Geno.   The Raider OL is pretty good and they have a pretty good TE and pretty good (underrated) WRs.   But I would not rule out Fields--Id run a lot of pistol, R/P option, and build the OL.  He will need weapons.

We definitely need LBs! I do not think we’re done at all. Looks like we’re going edge rushers/linebackers/FS/slot cb in the draft. We’ll see if they make a substantial move at any of those soon. It wouldn’t make a lot of since to go high picks and big money at the exact same positions/slots imo..kinda like the idea of that jack sawyer guy(just from descriptions on here) running around , behind this Dline

      Rookie season being key to uour argument. I didn't at all mislead about the talent Cam had to work with. Kalil was a great center. Olsen was a great TE. Our WRs were probably the worst in the league. Cam still won MVP, we went 15-1, and we went to the SB. Your attempt to bring up Cam to defend Bryce is desperate and clownish. Bryce has more talent to work with and has done WAY less.

      Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.
