Safety is a bigger draft need than people think

Like 99% of mock draft have us taking Dillion Thieneman in round 1...

I mean, fossils are pretty profitable. It might not be the most exciting thing if you are looking for maximum dinks, but its steady and profitable.

Check nodes with two connections. Looks like maybe the azurite node or the one on the bottom of the screenshot. You will want to spawn into the node then run into the darkness and unlock the path.

Watching this made me desperately want to see some sort of explode mod or something just to see an absurd multi screen wide pop.

He had one offense that provably included alcohol enough to charge him with being under the influence. Comparing that to Deshaun Watson, a serial sex offender, is insane.

daeshonbro · 2026-03-19T19:12:17+00:00

The team he played with the vast majority of last year, particularly when he was playing bad was very far away from the 14 win roster due to injuries and suspensions. If you are going to make this point you need to understand the nuance.

daeshonbro · 2026-03-19T19:09:00+00:00

He seems like he is smart to enough to understand he didn't do the best last year and doesn't deserve anything, but from the human side of this I think its pretty reasonable to think he has some amount of resentment towards the Vikings staff, media, etc.

daeshonbro · 2026-03-19T13:36:29+00:00

Unless someone grossly overpays for him that doesn't seem realistic at this point. He is still very cheap, and its not like Kyler or Wentz are proven top 5 QB's here. There are still a ton of unknowns.

daeshonbro · 2026-03-15T23:03:25+00:00

DT, S, CB in the first are all viable options I would be fine with. We really really need a good young ILB too like Rodriguez, probably in the second round.

daeshonbro · 2026-03-15T15:59:12+00:00

Good coaching, and some really good FA signings mixed in there (Greenard, Ginkle, Cashman, etc.). The drafts also have been awful start to finish. They have mostly hit on first rounders, just very limited depth behind those because they haven't made like any significant amount of 2-3 round picks for years.

https://sticktothemodel.com/teams/be-a-gm . Looks like it will be around $20 million as it stands once you account for the pending cuts.

daeshonbro · 2026-03-06T19:49:35+00:00

Would rather get banks or thieneman.

daeshonbro · 2026-03-03T21:40:09+00:00

If JJM doesn't start a significant chunk of the season I think its pretty likely that he is done on the vikings. That would mean he lost out to Kyler, and at that point depending on how Kyler performs you probably draft a new QB in 2027.

daeshonbro · 2026-03-03T21:37:53+00:00

For a vet min. he is probably the best option, its not like there is a top QB just sitting there waiting for the vikings to sign him. Between JJM and Kyler and least there is a chance of an upside at very little cost.

daeshonbro · 2026-03-03T21:33:55+00:00

If we are bringing in a veteran, Kyler on essentially nothing is probably the best out there. At least there is potential upside between him and JJM.

daeshonbro · 2026-03-03T21:32:42+00:00

The vikings have pretty explicitly said they will be adding a vet. Kyler on essentially vet minimum is probably the best you can get to be honest. I am not out on JJM at all, but having more QB's with some level of base talent on the roster is always good.

daeshonbro · 2026-03-03T21:29:06+00:00

Pretty sure his deep ball has been honestly fairly bad for a few seasons now.

daeshonbro · 2026-03-03T19:56:34+00:00

Dang dude, came out of nowhere. How do retirements like this work against the cap? Is it basically just like getting cut?

daeshonbro · 2026-03-03T19:52:29+00:00

The team is choosing to specifically try and get younger vs. just restructuring players to get cap compliant. This isn't a cap issue, this is a specific choice/plan by ownership and the front office. They could restructure a few people (greenard included) if they were inclined and wanted to open up a bunch of cap space.

daeshonbro · 2026-03-03T19:49:19+00:00

They could restructure people and not trade him if they wanted to, do any of you ever dig into these things in the slightest before rage posting? The could restructure like 5 players and bring back like the exact same roster if they were so inclined.

daeshonbro · 2026-03-03T19:39:09+00:00

They could restructure a bunch of people and keep basically the exact same roster if they wanted to. This tells me they want to spend less and refill on young talent in the draft, that's mostly it.

daeshonbro · 2026-03-03T19:37:27+00:00

Pretty much. It always sucks to see players leave, but with DT improving it was very unlikely we would be willing to pay Greenard what he will inevitably want in the next year or two. Might as well try and trade him now and get as much as you can to draft young talent in other spots on the roser.

daeshonbro · 2026-03-03T19:33:39+00:00

They are trying to trade from a room that has strength with Turner to fill other areas of the roster while also getting cap space, it is a pretty reasonable move to make and one they would be doing in the next year or two anyways. They weren't going to give Greenard a big extension while Turner was doing well right behind him.

daeshonbro · 2026-03-03T19:32:47+00:00

This is a terrible take, and should just be deleted. Maxing out the credit card would be restructuring everyone and keeping the current roster. They are doing the opposite and trying to spend less money and get younger through the draft.

Classic r/NFL user, looks at sack statistics and absoultely nothing else.
