Two Months Too Late
The NFL has voted on a proposed change to how overtime will be conducted in the playoffs. And the vote shockingly passed. “Sudden Death” appears as if it will be modified so that both teams will not be able to simply win by kicking a field goal in overtime. The owners will discuss extending this [...]
Expanding On My Tebow Position
After a small flurry of activity, I think this week will go back to being just as boring as the last one when it comes to Vikings news. The highlight of the week could possibly be finding out that the Vikings will be heading to New Orleans for the season opener, as expected. So, I [...]
Updated Draft Order
Yesterday, the NFL awarded 32 additional draft picks to teams. As we had already discussed, the Vikings were awarded a 5th rounder as compensation for losing Matt Birk in free agency. The new list of Vikings draft picks are as follows: ROUND ONE – Pick #30 ROUND TWO – Pick #30 ROUND THREE – Pick [...]
More Unfounded Edwards Rumors
Before I start, let me say that this can be filed under the “heard it from a guy who hear it from a guy who says somebody said it on ESPN” part of the rumor mill. Apparently, however, the Atlanta Falcons are another team that is possibly interested in signing restricted free agent Ray Edwards [...]
Hall-Of-Famer’s Son Makes A Visit
The son of Hall-of-Fame center Bruce Matthews will be one player that the Vikings bring in for a visit prior to the NFL Draft, according to a subscription-only article at scout.com. Texas A&M center Kevin Matthews weighs 298 pounds and stand at 6 foot 3 inches tall. Known for using his hands to beat opponents [...]
Vikings Show Interest In Another Big DB
I passed along last week that the Vikings were going to host cornerback/safety Chris Cook to a private workout. I’m not sure if that workout has happened yet or not, but I did hear that his pro day went pretty poorly. But never fear, another giant defensive back is here! There are rumors floating around that the [...]
Wilf Says “No” To A McKinnie Trade
Judd Zulgad caught up with Vikings Owner Zygi Wilf today and asked him if the team might attempt to trade left tackle Bryant McKinnie. “No,” was the answer given by Wilf. So there you have it, the Vikings will not be trading Bryant McKinnie… unless Zygi Wilf was lying… which owners have been known to [...]
Iupati To Visit The Vikes
In my 2010 Offseason Tracker, I have a spot dedicated to highlighting the draft prospects that are scheduled to visit the Vikings prior to draft day. After writing this article, I can add a second name to the list (would it be considered a list if only one guy was on there to begin with?). [...]
Vikes Get Another Pick
The compensatory picks have finally been revealed, and as expected, the Vikings received a fifth round pick (#167). The pick was given because of the Vikings loss of Matt Birk to the Ravens. The loss of Darren Sharper was cancelled out by the addition of Karl Paymah. For a complete list of the picks, you [...]
