They are patient and prudent & have a salary structure for the long haul that they’ll not waver from.

Jenkins will work out. Just wait. He’s just a late bloomer.

Moss owwwt. Period.

Colin is fixating on Crabtree. He missed Delanie and Vernon and Moss when they were open in the end zone. He is forcing the passes towards Crabtree.

Now that Colin is the starter look for Greg Roman to tailor the offense to the QB… We’ll be fine even if AJ Jenkins never shows up!

Plus we have Vernon Davis and possibly Delanie Walker

That Free Agent could be convinced he is a piece needed to get over the hump and thus sign for less.

Not all Free Agents mind you but the days of the team overpaying to get someone are long gone. But even with that some guys like their straight cash. I’d love for them to get Greg Jennings though. Another vet with SB winning experience is not a bad thing.

As for AJ Jenkins anyone else remember the time when it was expected for Rookie WRs to struggle? Just because QBs are starting to play well out the gate doesn’t mean every rookie is going to be good right away.

But if he struggles this year after the humbling he got this year his stay in San Francisco will probably be pretty short.

“He won’t be leaving”? Lol that’s the best one yet..lets see, the guys choice is an up an coming team that just barely lost the Superbowl,a brand new stadium,a young exciting QB,a beautiful city like San Fran, but wait,once he sees the snow,cold,dumpy dome,and ..lol down the field QB the Dikes have..he won t be leaving? Hahahahahahahahahlololololo..thanks for the laugh buddy, that made my day..Delusional party of 1!

My 2 year old nephew could of figured that out. Plus don’t all players want more money when there contracts are up and the team signs a new player for more $$? Jesus have a more original thought than what the average idiot can come up with.

Mike Wallace= ego too big, price tag way too high, had a bit of a down year

Percy Harvin= great all around threat. WR skills are there, running the end around is there, return game is there (esp if Ginn goes bye bye), but would the Vikings let him go/can he stay healthy?

Greg Jennings= great pass catcher/route runner, great teammate. However, has had drop issues before, coming off a few injuries, getting “up there” in age.

Wes Welker= great possesion receiver with the ability to break off the big ones, great possesion reciever and route runner. Similar to Harvin in the ability to run reverses and punts, but again, will NE let him go, and at what price, and also getting up there in age

Anquan Boldin=great possesion receiver, great teammate but has already said he wants to retire as a Raven, and likely will do so if they let him go

I’d say let Moss and Ginn venture elsewhere, and go after Welker or Harvin if they can be had at a reasonable price. Otherwise, I think Jennings could be a good fit.

the East West Shrine Game.

That’s for low level guys and no one should use first rounders on them!!! Look at Joey Harrington. No Senior Bowl. He was an East West Game invite only.

If I were Baalke I would get a free agent WR or wait till Round 2 or 3 to get one. TY Hilton is an example of why WR’s can be taken later.

Every WR the vikings have signed since michael jenkins was going to be an unstoppable force according to their fans. The next randy moss in their eyes. Even randy moss was going to be the next randy moss…. And even CFL has beens were going to be it. The vikings have had about 12 number 1 wr’s since 2010……..

Yeah maybe they ought not try that again

Jenkins appears to be a miss on a draft choice. Manningham looked much better than expected when he was playing. It would be nice to have another proven excellent receiver but use the guys coming back plus draft another one. Use money for defense and some depth at offensive line. Let Moss go. Let Smith go. Let Akers go.

We’ll see. I’ll admit he would be the perfect piece to that offense. Crabtree roaming the mid and deep patterns, V Davis doing his thing…plus Gore and Kaepernick’s running skill keeping Defenses out of nickel. Wes Welker would have a lot of room to maneuver. Also, can you think of a better security blanket for a young team. A match made in heavan?

Not as a decoy, but actually throw the ball to him. He’s running fine, caught everything his way this year, and was open numerous times in the SB but wasn’t targeted. Jim’s a great coach, but he waaaay underutilized him this year. All the guys on the team like him and learned from him. To me it’s a no brainer. All the complaining about a ball 10 feet over his head is silly when he was WIDE OPEN!

Titus Young is available. For the team that wants to commit suicide.

That is too funny! Nice job!

Of course, you would have to make sure Crabtree is OK being the 2nd receiver!

What a match made in heaven…
