Is anyone out there familiar with some of the FA Wide Recievers and Running Backs out there right now? Can you please refresh my memory on a few of them? Does anyone know if the Vikings are currently "wineing and dineing" anyone? I was really hopeing to see Derrick Mason in Purple and Gold but alas my hopes were "crushed".
Plax and Taylor(ravens) have contacted us....look like we could pick up one pretty soon
RB is pretty weak the good FA's were franchised i.e(alexander)

I would like to get Anthony Becht... He seems like a solid player... But next year we will have Big Jimmy (i hope) and hopefully we will sign Wiggins!!!
I believe Baxter resigned also, but I could be wrong.
I was surprised they had Plax so high on the list
We definitely need vets on D. We have young talent that needs mature players around them. I think we should bring in Griffith as a backup. Although, I'd really like to see us sign Law or Smoot, and a LB like Bell first. BTW, What happened to Buchanon??? Is he still a free agent??
