Outside of Offensive Tackle, We need to spend the little money we have on Defense.

True, at 20 million over the cap (excluding Bushrod) we have absolutely zero room for luxuries.

Keeping or replacing Bushrod is going to place us around 28 million over the cap.

Oh, and we have to bump de la Puente's salary up several notches as well since he's a restricted free agent.

Lets just say we're at 30 million over. And Jimmy Graham's a free-agent next year.

Bye Bye Vilma, Smith, Harper, Ivory, Henderson, and likely several others shockers we don't see coming.

Not a priority

Whoah, didn't expect this much back lash.
The facts are these: This guy would be our best WR, easily.
And our third best RB.
But landing him will be impossible. We have nothing of value for the Vikings.
Plus, he's apparently a problem child. If this were Madden, I'd make the move in a heartbeat, but if this were Madden, I'd own t-shirts from multiple New Orleans Saints Super Bowl victories and not one.

You are talking about trading for an offensive skill player when the defense was the worst in the history of the NFL. What did you expect?

Pick any receiving stat you like. This assertion is patently false.

And our third best RB.

On a team that has RBs coming out the ears...

We finally agree on something: This is not Madden...

Maybe not Harvin but I will admit that our WR core is not getting any younger

I like Toon but i dont like when a rookie is placed on injure reserve before he ever takes a regular season snap.

Henderson is at 30
Colston, Moore, Sproles, are all coming up to 30 (29)
And Pierre Thomas is right behind them (28)

swapping draft picks and trade asap. sure. he is IR waiting to happen

Lets be real, there is no way we can entertain getting him with the cap situation we are in. To those that don't think he would be worth every penny of what he ends up getting, ya'll are crazy!

Him and Peterson is there entire offense. Every team they played knew he was getting the ball and they still couldn't stop him. He is easily one of the most underrated receivers in the league. He had some headache issue in the beginning but seems to have gotten that straightened out. The last injury to his ankle was major. Could have happened to anybody.

Exactly, I follow the Vikes closely, and this guy is the real deal.
