Powell's returning
The #Vikings have made another signing, and one that might fly a bit under the radar (for now), as they’re bringing back WR/PR Brandon Powell on a one-year deal. Financial terms have not yet been disclosed. #NFL #Skolhttps://t.co/K7F7nOtMb3

I like the signing as long as it's commensurate with his contributions, he is a nice player that I don't think they utilize his skill set enough. I would like to see him tried as kind of a gadget guy like Mckinnon maybe? Just not sure he can take the additional pounding the JM takes for KC
Well, as of now the team has no clear WR #3. I think Powell can be that guy, but it'd be nice to get another one too.
Stepped up as a WR when we were down last year, do not love him as a returner and would prefer to see him just at WR.
He was pretty reliable on punt returns. And he showed up mid season at WR3. In one 8 game stretch, he had 24 of his total 29 season receptions. This is a good value re-signing.
Great resigning, love that kid - all heart. Solid player at a position of needed depth.
Needs to work on his Tush Push.
Brandon Powell’s got that dog in him. Nice to have him back
I was hoping they would bring him back. This is a good move. He was pretty reliable the few times the ball was thrown his way.
Dig it. WR3/4 box now checked. If we can draft a guy cool but it's another position we no longer "have to" fill.
Powell competing with Nailor for WR3 isn't terrible.
What's going on with KJ Osborn? Is this a sign that Powell effectively replaces him? Getting Powell KJ's reps?
@"Montana Tom" said: What's going on with KJ Osborn? Is this a sign that Powell effectively replaces him? Getting Powell KJ's reps?well KJ is a free agent and likely is wanting a bigger role ( if one is available ) than a 3/4 guy behind two of the better in the game currently. I doubt he is back unless there is virtually no market for him which would be odd.
