  Please, not another Aaron Rodgers thread
Posted by: NorseFeathers - 03-18-2025, 04:01 PM - Forum: The Longship - Replies (8)

Everyone (Giants, Steelers) is waiting for Rodgers to make a decision. Per Schefter and Field Yates, Rodgers is waiting on a decision by the Vikings.  They both stated Rodgers wants to be a Viking, though neither one quoted a source.

I know this is bullshit season, but neither Schefter or Yates say something without some insight. Most of us are a hard pass on Rodgers, but it is an interesting possibility.

  So we signed Jeff Okudah CB
Posted by: Montana Tom - 03-18-2025, 01:02 PM - Forum: The Longship - Replies (2)

I trust in KOC and BFlo on this one. 
A former high level first rounder, this is his fourth NFL team already?
Somebody better 'splain this one to me. Not questioning the decision, just wondering.

Vikings and CB Jeff Okudah reached agreement today on a one-year contract, per
@UniSportsMgmt
CEO Kevin Conner. The 26-year-old Okudah had multiple options, but chose to return to the NFC North, this time with the Vikings to play for DC Brian Flores.

  QB Shedeur Sanders
Posted by: StickierBuns - 03-18-2025, 12:07 PM - Forum: The Longship - Replies (9)

There's a lot of things I like about Sanders and have said as much over the last year plus. He's tough minded, keeps his eyes downfield, accurate, some pocket mobility. But the buzz on him low-level is that his arm is really weak. Like if he started in the NFL tomorrow, his arm would rank 32nd. That's rough. It can't be fixed or overcome, its just a trait that is what it is. I could see him falling out of the first round possibly.

I'm biased, but it seems to me that a 14-win team upgrading at least 5 positions would finish a little better than just one spot ahead of an 11-win team who did virtually nothing. I suppose it's all about the QB though, and ours is a big question mark in the eyes of most.

Rank 7
Minnesota Vikings
You can't say the Vikings have been passive, that's for sure. The defensive line was an issue, so they added defensive tackles Jonathan Allen and Javon Hargrave. The O-line wasn't how they wanted it, so they dropped two starters and added Will Fries and Ryan Kelly . They also kept Byron Murphy Jr. and Aaron Jones -- paying up to do so -- and made a savvy trade with the 49ers for RB Jordan Mason . And, of course, there was the Big One: letting Sam Darnold walk. I wondered how the Vikings would approach the offseason after going 14-3, and as it turns out, they're being very aggressive. But for now, the aggression has stopped at quarterback, where most signs point to 2024 first-round pick J.J. McCarthy taking over as the starter. Sure, there's risk in that approach, but it's always felt like their North Star, even with the Aaron Rodgers option available to them. This is a delicate situation, but so far, the Vikings haven't done anything to upset it, which is commendable.

Rank 8
Green Bay Packers
Years of inactivity in March conditioned Packers fans to feel disappointment at this juncture of the calendar. So perhaps 2024's veritable free-agent frenzy -- Green Bay signed Josh Jacobs and Xavier McKinney -- reset expectation levels a bit too high. Some harbored dreams of trading for Trey Hendrickson or DK Metcalf , but neither of those moves materialized, with the actual additions of nickelback Nate Hobbs and guard Aaron Banks paling in comparison. Then again, those could end up being fairly important when we look back later. Cornerback still seems like a spot where the Packers could add, and they have the flexibility to do so. And it continues to feel likely they'll move on from Jaire Alexander at some point. But the thing about this team under GM Brian Gutekunst is that it has found ways to get the roster in good shape more often than not by training camp. I suspect these Packers will do the same by the time we get to July.
