Well, if it was for defense, oh hell no especially being cut by a team with one of the worst D’s right now, but since he seem’s to “stand out on special teams”, I’d try anything to improve on the crap effort of last season.

My God son played with him at Wash. St. I’ll see what he has to say about him. Ok, maybe this is a bargain basement deal that might work. If he is good on special teams and has some secondary experience he could also serve as injury insurance. Then again, some of these guys are late bloomers and we get really lucky. Not exactly a flashy profile bu tmaybe this shows signs of activity in the front office.

He just got released. He is only 28 years old, he can take Darren Sharpers spot and keep tyrell johnson on special teams.
We got the cap room! Sign him then a WR, OL, CB in the Draft

He’s terrible

Are evidently making cap room while getting rid of cancers like TO. I don’t think Roy falls into that catagory. However the Boys are looking to make some new chemistry that is obviously lacking. Watch see if they start hitting the FA market for bargains to build a team that is cohesive. Romo better watch it or he will be on the trade block. Something is happening in the Big D. They may be sucking up a year to rebuild and FA might be more alluring than this years crop

Basically, we are getting a special teams ace with the potential to shore up our shallow cornerback roster.

I would say it is a special teams move with the hope that it may someday translate into a future starter.

We are probably going to lose a few special teams guys, and we could use a faster ST specialist on special teams, that’s for sure.

I meant to say “a faster ST specialist on punt returns”…

is a free agent. I don’t know what his condition is. I know he is old bu tcould he help short term if the price is right. Mike Goff is another interesting angle with an old age label. He is one big boy who could hold the inside of the line. A good OT in the draft and using Goff at guard thenHicks at both positions if needed might be the answer. I know we bash Cook, but he did play center and it is pretty hard to jump off side or make a false start from there. Sullivan may be the real answer but what if Cook actually can play center?
I’m beginning to wonder if a big a— guard on the rt side might balance things out. Sullivan and Cook battle for center. We pick up the young Rt.OT if he does well and starts, we have a back up center and tackle in Cook. If the rook doesn’t start right off, Hicks goes in.
This is playing chess, I know. Maybe a big guard might be a temporary fix and a vet like Goff might work. These are just scenarios I ponder as I know we all feel the OT spot must be dealt with. There are a butt load of O-line men out there. If they saw something in Paymah, maybe they might find a diamond in the rough with some of the younger O-line guys in FA.
Thanks for baring with my speculations. They are just passing thoughts

if he is a great ST player then i woould we need alot of help at ST

Spoke with my god sons dad. He said Paymah played on a very strong Wash St. defensive secondary. Not sure why he hasn’t cracked a starting spot yet but it could be who he was behind and how the team was doing. In Paymah’s defense he played behind Bailey, and may not have been doing well so they put the rookie in to give him experience. A matter of flipping players to see what worked.
Sounds like he muffed an opportunity but that doesn’t mean he is bad in the secondary. He is a good ST player, hard worker and loves to hit.
My friend thinks its a great move for the Vikes. Especially at a reasonable price

From Access Vikings:

Spielman said the team has not had any free agent visits other than T.J. Houshmandzadeh and don’t currently have any visits scheduled.

What’s going on here?

Thats huge. I really like that kid. He is playmaker, plain and simple. Best move of the offseason!
