I believe all our rookies have signed

I was just on the web site and everyone but TG has signed and TG will make it official later but will not miss any practice. This makes me very happy! I hate it when guys that have not even played pro football hold out and miss the practice they very much need.

Well all the pieces are in place, let the games begin!

SKol Vikings, Skol Vikings, Skol Vikings, Skol Vikings Skol Vikings Skol vikings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yup..

I just put up a fanpost on this

Damn!! That was probably a waste of 10 seconds of my life haha!

Anyways, Gerhart missed out on the OTAs and Mini-camps soley so he could finish up his education at Standford. I believe that is a very reasonable reason to miss out. Education is important since you may not be able to make a life-long career out of the NFL. I would call it the back-up plan. We can’t hate on Gerhart for that, however, lets hope he’s been keeping in shape and will be able to perform at high levels this year.

not at all

I just hate the hold outs that are not there because 5 mill a year is not enough. TG is all good!

Yeah, not many 2nd rounders hold out for more money.

It appears that the 30th pick in the draft would have cost us about twice as much as Chris Cook received as the number 34 selection. Cook got a 2 mil bonus. # 30 is going to get 4-5 Million. He could turn out to fit well with our zone coverage system and be the steal of the draft. Of course, I suppose he could turn out to be a waste of 2 Mil, also
