The latest from Adam Schefter: 

Vikings and Panthers have tried to work out a trade for Carolina WR Adam Thielen, who would like to return to Minnesota, but the two sides continue to struggle to agree on compensation.

It sounds like there is a good chance of this happening (I wish it wouldn’t) but at least if it does, Morgan won’t be fleeced. Vikings fans are crying saying panthers should just give him away, that’s not how this works. He’s too valuable to the offense and is the best wr on the team.

It seems to me that Adam Thielen's agent is using Adam Schefter as a way to make this trade happen.

That's the bit I didn't want to throw out without another source. 

 

So now it's out, AT and his wife want to go back home. So he's actually pushing for this trade since him and his agent had to get involved because of the paycut request. 

 

Why I've stood firm that the trade would eventually happen.

He definitely wants to go back, him and his wife stay there in the off-season. He's worked out with JJ the last two offseasons and has done an interview about JJ and how good he thinks he's going to be. 

Neither wanted to leave Minnesota in the first place but he didn't want to retire yet, now it's getting down to what seems like his last year and he wants to go back to Minnesota, play his last year there and retire a Viking.

    • He only wants to be traded because it's the Vikings who are calling. If he didn't want to be here, he could have retired, instead he took a pay raise to come back for another season.  I get it, it's an opportunity that he'd like to take, but we shouldn't cut off our nose to spite our face because he now wants to jump at this opportunity less than two weeks before the season starts. I'm not against trading him, I'm just against trading him for a return that doesn't help our team as much as having him on the roster would.  I'll put it this way, if a 5th is the best we can get for him from the Vikings and he's now dug in on not wanting to stay this year, I'm saying screw you and trading him to any of the other 30 teams besides the Vikings for the best offer we can get. He was perfectly happy here a week ago, if the Vikings soured him on that and then want to get him for peanuts, then screw them both.
    • Yes and no, he wants to go back and his wife most definitely wants to go back. He took a bunch of team mates to Minny and has worked out with JJ two offseasons in a row. It's where both him and his wife are from.    The money was basically a please come back and help Bryce. Pretty please...here's some more money.    Now he's agreed to a paycut to go back to the Vikings. 
    • Because he won't be here next year, we aren't winning this year and we need to see if Renfrow or Horn can be that guy going forward. If Bryce isn't good enough to do poo without AT we need to find that out this year as well. I'm fine keeping him but his role needs to be slowly reduced throughout the year anyway so we know what we have for the future
