Randy Moss appears to be parting ways with San Francisco. At 36, he says he's still good to go. We'll see if anyone picks him up this time. His play was average this past season for the Niners, BUT he was the model citizen and he still has more speed than any receiver the Vikings have other than Harvin.
More Vikings:
The Vikes have not designated anyone as their "Franchise Player" yet because of the cost involved. We don't want to designate Phil Loadholt because of the cost involved (almost $10 million.) If we gave him the designation, we wouldn't have any cap space for salary negotiation. As a result we actually may lose Loadholt to free agency.
Jerome Felton is in the same boat. He's a good blocking back BUT the Vikings don't want to pay him $8 million plus for that role if he is given the franchise tag. He, too may be moving on.
I absolutely HATE the business end of football. The Vikings are close to maxing out all they are allowed to spend and we still don't have any great wide receivers. Relying on the draft is iffy at best.
IF the Vikes give out a franchise tag, it has to be done by this afternoon.
