Caleb Williams wanted to play for the #Vikings following his draft combine interview with Kevin O’Connell, his father revealed via @SethWickersham’s book. After the meeting, Williams “began to dream of what it would be like to play for Minnesota.”

Caleb: “I need to go to the #Vikings.”

Caleb’s father: “Let’s do it.”

The only option for avoiding Chicago and getting to Minnesota, Wickersham wrote, was for the Williamses to publicly attack the idea. But Caleb Williams said: "I wasn't ready to nuke the city." The Vikings wound up with J.J. McCarthy, and oh by the way, the teams will play Week 1. According to Caleb Williams father in a book written by
@SethWickersham he didn’t want his son to play for the #Bears. He apparently considered the possibility for his son to sign with the UFL and become an unrestricted NFL free agent in 2025 to be able to pick a team

The Vikings’ entire draft class is under contract.

The team announced it agreed to terms with first-round pick Donovan Jackson on Wednesday night, finalizing a four-year deal with the Ohio State guard.

Jackson, the 24th pick in the draft, would be in line to receive a signing bonus of $9.132 million, according to Over the Cap. His entire contract would be worth $17.177 million over the next four years, with a salary cap number of $3.123 million in 2025.

The team agreed to terms with the other four players in its draft class — wide receiver Tai Felton, defensive lineman Tyrion Ingram-Dawkins, linebacker Kobe King, and tight end Gavin Bartholomew — before the start of its rookie minicamp last week.

New redshirt rookie handpicked QB.....big FA period....appears to be improvements in areas of weakness from last season. Lots of bright lights on the Vikings this year from a scheduling standpoint. Coach of the Year last year. Not sure as fans we could ask for much more at this point in an offseason. Games to be played yet, need to see balls in the air....and of course, as much health as we can ask for from the football gods.....but it sure seems like its a deliberately crafted, talented and well coached team: a strategic plan that came together. 

Could this be the start of something legitimately special? Maybe a window that changes the narrative finally? Nobody knows yet, but it sure gives me some real hope and excitement as a fan as we stand today. Sweet anticipation this summer.

I guess its called having an opinion, lmao....has both GB and Minnesota way below .500. Mentions that the NFC is 'wide open' now (which is funny) but really only shows Detroit as a threat to them and maybe the Rams...maybe. The rest of the NFC he's downgraded big time, so not really following any supposed logic. Young California writer following California teams in his short career, not sure how familiar he is with the NFC.

just 4 wins away from breaking the Minnesota drought.

After watching this you would think they drafted 5 probowlers.

....and I'll be at that game, perfect weather in Chicago.
