We don't really have one of these yet, so figured we could use this as a place to discuss potential free agent acquisitions and what we would like to look for them to bring in.
If any of you guys are interested, heres a good place to do some research.

I actually think the expectation does not drop one bit. I just think that Veach thinks with Mahomes, it is possible to cut Houston, Berry, and trade Ford and still be in the mix. They are no longer THAT critical in the overall success. Mahomes gives us a margin of error in overall personnel that we never experienced before. Franchise QBs cover for other deficiencies on your roster. You have to look no further then how far Mahomes took our garbage D this year. [Reply]
The #Vikings have received calls from teams interested in trading for former first-round CB Trae Waynes, sources say. His fifth-year option just became fully guaranteed, so Minnesota won’t cut him. But there is interest.
Odds are they have to move on from a CB, they have a bunch of money in that position...Rhodes and Waynes are paid a lot...Hughes was just taken in the 1st and then Alexander was a 2...that's a lot of depth and money. [Reply]

Bruh Houston, Ford and Berry were garbage against the Patriots and we still should have won if not for Ford’s dumbass. [Reply]

Yeah i've heard this like for about a decade now with Aaron Rodgers. Veach has to hit on the draft that's the bottom line. [Reply]
I'm simply speaking from the perspective of a franchise that hasn't won a championship in 50 years and is about to be hamstrung by the contract of their franchise quarterback.
I'll always go along with what the front office decides, but patience is becoming increasingly hard to muster up. This franchise needs to get over the hump. [Reply]

He's actually a pretty solid CB, it depends what he wants, if he wants like 90 million dollars uh no...if you can sign him for like 5-70 I'd be interested. [Reply]

This team has never done shit like this....it's a new day seeing them move away from so many name players that were here so long. [Reply]

And how many times over those past 10 years, until just recently, has Green Bay been in the mix with the average NFL roster minus Rodgers? [Reply]

Rodgers was so good he was saving his shitty coaches job when he should have been fired years ago. [Reply]
