Metellus extended

I like Metellus, but that is a lot of money for a hybrid player who does not actually play safety. Also, thought Murphy was a big overpay. In my opinion, the one who deserved to get paid most out of the 3 was Bynum. Thought he was more valuable on many levels.

Great news, one of my favorite players. He makes the defense go because the opposing team never knows where he's lining up.

Thus ends the shortest ankle injury in recorded history   :D

Soo... now something like $70 million over the cap next year?

The actual contract is really team friendly. Good deal for the Vikings.

I think Metellus was given what I would expect. But I agree Murphy was a huge over pay for a guy who really can't cover very well. I hope he improves and proves me wrong, but he makes me nervous! I know he had a lot of picks that got him paid, so I hope that continues.

Now that this is done, they should address O’Neils lack of guarantees I would think…

Brezinski is gonna a very busy dude next March.

Yep. But such is the way it goes in the NFL. Fingers crossed this year's class of FAs pan out for the Vikings.
