Harvin to the Seahawks!?

Now, wtf would you trade him to an NFC contender?? Trade that fucker to Jacksonville er some shit!?

I don't care, as long as he's not in Minny. Ta hell wit im!

 

[JohnRandle]

Speillman made a hell of a deal here..

 

[beardown07]

Still...he'da looked better in a Browns uniform.

Reports: Vikings tender Jefferson and Sherels

I'm sure a lot of teams shied away from him..
Vikes basically got what they paid for him, plus a couple picks.
Cut and run baby!! lol

How do you guys feel about losing Harvin? I know I was a bit surprised to hear it.

 

[JohnRandle]

I have a feeling he'll get over it..

Peterson: 'kicked in stomach' over Harvin deal

Hate to lose the talent, but I hate the "me above the team" attitude.
Vikes won more games, against tougher teams while he was put on "injured reserve" last season.
So..I like the move.

I haven't seen what all you guys got for him, but do think it was a fair trade? I heard from talking to rockess that Minnesota is pretty thin at WR right now.

They got 1st (25th pick) and 7th picks this season, and mid rounder next season, probably 4th or 5th.
There's rumors the Vikes contacted Wallace and Jennings agents, and it's a deep draft for WR's. I wouldn't be surprised if the Vikes come away with 2 receivers in the 1st 3 rounds.
GM has a good head on his shoulders.

Loadholt signed, Cheech Simpson for another season..
Winfield released!! I can understand the move, but it sucks big time.
Can't pay a guy who's 36, pretty much only plays in nickle coverage over 7 million a season.

Would be good for them to get a WR back in there right away.

 

[powerchord86]

Matt Cassel coming in for back-up? Gotta be better than Webb.

 

[MISKO]

anyone is better than webb except t junk

This is destroying my soul. He's one of my favorite Vikings all-time - I sleep in a Winfield away jersey in summer - and I thought for sure he'd restructure to stay on. I'm just appalled.

According to twitter: Jared Allen, Rick Spielman, George Paton and Leslie Frazier among those having dinner with Greg Jennings in MSP.

We really want him...but considering all we have (and I mean ALL) is Stephen Burton, Greg Childs, and Jarius Wright at WR...we really need him too

Well, they need to make the Harvin trade work to their benefit. To do that they need to sign an established WR. They need to take the 9 or 10 million that they would have paid Harvin and get another WR, then and only then they benefit from the 1st and 7th this season and the 3rd next, because they will have the receiver and the picks.

 

[JohnRandle]

And I hear ya on the Winfield deal Lady...He's one of my all time favorite Vikings too.

 

[MISKO]

well yinz got a back up qb now

Dad wanted an established WR plus Harvin, preferably one the same age so they could work together in a tandem. He's not overpleased about releasing Harvin either, but he's very happy with all the picks we got. A 2014 third rounder on top of a 1st and 7th this year...just wow, y'know?

Dad's also not happy with picking up Matt Cassel, I'm reserving judgement.

Thing is we need to beef up both of our lines so much spending too many picks on WRs seems like a bad combo.
