Bryant McKennie still available

I'd stay with the young guys and Strief is plenty ready. When he has been called upon in the past he's has come up big.

400 pounds is bad for someone of any height. His playing weight is 360.

Thats a big boy.

Or would he just be eating on every snap?

Never mind that, he wouldn't fit in the uniform.

Minny fans were relieved to see him go as he wasn't good at all last year, and he was in a way even more ridiculed than Stinchcomb.

Supposedly he has a rap artist career going on in Miami, which he was more interested in than working out this off-season. So I would say a big NO to signing him!

Well... he could eat the opposing player.

We must pass on McKinnie ... he has indeed ate his way into Sullivanland I've heard it firsthand from the Vikings fans I work with

Maybe an on-field buffet included in his contract. "Will block for food.....lots of food."

When you look at his salary figures remember

1.95mm does not mean "$1,950,000" but "1.95 million mcdoubles."
The cap value works out the same. It is mainly a semantic issue.
