The WR and CB sections of the Vikings' initial 53-man roster sure look like foreplay for trades.

C.J. Ham will miss his first game in 5 years on September 8th.

they made the designation that he would indeed return in 2025, and they made that designation on Tuesday, August 26th. lol. it's weird wording.

... saying out loud, "Hey, the Vikings found 7 rosterable UDFAs this go-round ..." ... only to be met with, "That's because the GM sucks at his job ..." ... is the ultimate VikingsTwitter experience.

trying to remember — when all those UDFAs helped the Miami Heat reach the 2023 NBA Finals (the ones they mentioned every night on TV), was the common narrative ... "Yeah, Pat Riley sucks." or this just a bitch fest unique to Vikings fans?

well, here's the deal: he emphatically did not draft well in 2022 — and 2023 is interpretive because of Addison, the Hockenson trade (very much a part of that draft, and it's not debatable), and finding Pace Jr. i take issue with people plugging their ears and yelling "blah,

never in doubt

sooooooooooo i hope Thielen plays productively for TWO more years to make this trade worth it. lol

There is a degree of poetry in the J.J. McCarthy era beginning while Adam Thielen and Harrison Smith are still on the Vikings' roster. I can't really explain it, but I can feel it.

Kind of a side note to today: When Jordan Addison gets back, and Adam Thielen presumably slides into a WR3 role, Thielen will be the Vikings' most productive WR3 in YEARS. years, i tell you

Tanner Weber This is actually just a poor take. I'm a big fan of the depth at that position. These young guys have continuously flashed.

the player introductions right before the Week 2 game against the Falcons for J.J. McCarthy and Adam Thielen are gonna be so 🔥

this would work 👀

when that thielen trade notification finally hit

This kid's a game-changer. Our #1 linebacker in the '28 class can match up with your best WR or blow past the line like a freight train. We saw him in action at the San José State Football 7v7 camp - he's the real deal. Big, fast & physical as a sophomore his upside is scary. #Elite100
