Well, it is obvious that Donovan McNabb will be the talk-of-the-town for the next few days. So, while I highly recommend the well thought out article recently written by Vikes Geek, here is an ESPN video to go with it:

Boring Isn’t Always Bad
March 26th, 2010 
Adam Warwas 
Posted in Charity, Features, Main, News, Offseason, Opinions, Police Blotter The Vikings offseason thus far can be best described as “boring,” and rightfully so. Waiting for an old guy to make a decision is the equivalent of watching paint dry, sifting through details of a seemingly never ending court case feels like watching grass grow, signing a kicker generates enough buzz to sell about zero more [...]
Tags: Lewis To Visit The Vikes
A few days back I mentioned that the Vikings had interest in Vanderbilt safety/cornerback Myron Lewis. Today, it has been confirmed by Vikings Update (subscription only) that the Vikings will bring him in for a pre-Draft visit. The Vikings are expected to host all of their scheduled visits at once on April 6th and 7th. They [...]
Making Prospects Sing
As of this posting, I have the Vikings selecting Missouri linebacker Sean Weatherspoon in the first round of the NFL Draft. One thing I now know is that the Vikings had enough interest in this kid to interview him at the Scouting Combine. And how do I know that they interviewed him? Well, because Weatherspoon [...]
Gabbin’ About McNabb
Strangely, a report has emerged that Donovan McNabb has the Vikings as his top choice of teams he’d like to be traded to. This comes one day after rumors swirled about McNabb possibly being traded to Buffalo, Oakland, or St. Louis. The Eagles are reportedly entertaining offers for all three of their quarterbacks, and have [...]
Coach Chris Draft Talk: Quarterbacks
It’s fast approaching. The annual April talent fest. The Vikings make their first selection (barring an unexpected trade) roughly 5 hours after the Rams open the event with Commissioner Roger Goodell saying “ With the first pick in the 2010 NFL draft, the St. Louis Rams select… Sam Bradford, Quarterback, Oklahoma Sooners. Top 5 [...]
Quote Of The Week: Ooops Edition
When Roger Goodell was asked about his decision to “fine” Bryant McKinnie for not showing up to Pro Bowl events he responded by saying it wasn’t his decision and that it may be hard to believe but he doesn’t deal with everything NFL related. Then he went on to say: But obviously when we have [...]
Hats Off To Childress (And Reid)
Brad Childress is an easy target for hack bloggers (anybody know one?) due to his rambling streams of consciousness, cross dressing ways, terrible metaphors, SUV driving skills, and game day decisions. Last year I may have even poked a little fun when he and Andy Reid decided to go salmon fishing in Alaska while his [...]
A Few Quick Hits
There are not enough new links yet to do a “links of the week” feature, but let’s take a quick look around the internet at a few issues: Vikings owner Zygi Wilf gave an awkward speech in opposition of the overtime rules change at the NFL’s owner meetings this week. The speech made little sense [...]
Add McCoy To The List
You guys are doing a great job of tipping me off when it comes to prospects the Vikings are scheduled to bring in for a pre-Draft visit. The latest thanks goes to Krugjr, a much appreciated reader. Chris McCoy is the latest to be added to the list. Scout.com (subscription only) calls McCoy a “tweener” [...]
