Knowing the Vikes they will trade him for a 2nd or 3rd round draft pick...something dumb like that. If we are going to trade him when need to get player(s) out of him NOW. A player with some experience. Not some dumb draft pick. I hate that.

a second round pick would be a steal for Harvin. If a team offered that, they should jump on it as soon as they can. Harvin is good, but has been a problem mentally and injurywise from the get go.

No team is going to offer a 2nd round pick for him though. They'd be crazy to.

I don't even think all of this is about the money. Some of it? Yes. But not all. The direction of this team is not good. That'd be a problem for me too if I were a player. If the Vikes don't get their crap together then they will probably lose Peterson too. Players(the good ones) are going to get sick of losing seasons.

Are you still mad that they didn't draft Justin Blackmon?

I would have liked to grab Blackmon, but Kalil will do.


"If the Vikes don't draft Blackmon...They are idiots. I've been reading up alot of him, Kalil and Claiborne. You can't miss with Blackmon. I understand they have alot of spots they need to fill(You don't need to tell me that) but you just can't miss on Blackmon. The Vikes don't have a deep threat at WR and probably won't get one through FA either. They just signed Simpson(WHO!?) Pretty much a no namer. We can find an OL or CB in the 2nd or 3rd round. I'm not worried about that. I'm worried about something we havn't had since Rice in 2009 and I think Favre made him look good. Randy Moss was our last true WR."

There is absolutely no chance the Vikings deal him. That is because he has to many issues to trade FOR. Nobody is going to pay the price that the Vikings would require (1st round pick IMO) because the Vikings can do that. He has two years left on his contract so he has absolutely no leverage. The Vikings are likely not going to make a run for the playoffs next year anyway. There is no incentive to trade him for anything less than he is worth, especially with his migrains, off the field attitude problems, ect.

Right with you on this. We can dream I guess...
