Thread: An Offseason Question for the front office...

With the franchise having the stud running back in AP and Chester still in his prime, do the Vikings use these games with Taylor to showcase him for a offseason trade...


He still has a load of talent and the Vikes could use some building blocks.. Would you trade him for a first day pick or talent equivalent?

You still would have Moore as an alternative at RB..

The way Peterson runs, I like the idea of keeping Chester in as insurance for games like these...

If we were offered a 1st or 2nd rounder for him like you suggested, I may consider.

Agreed

Do you need a insurance policy or a few picks to package together for a quality QB whether it is another draft pick, or a trade for a veteran, or picks to use to secure a restricted FA as in Anderson from Cleveland?

NO!
I think we keep the 1-2 punch.
We can get what we need with the cap and draft picks we have.

You do not get rid of 1/2 the best backfield in the NFL.
The way AD runs the ball and our reliance on him makes increases the chance for an injury.

And we all know we cannot hang our hat on our passing game.

I agree, though I do not want to rule a trade out. IF(!) someone comes with a offer. Maybe a first round, or a veteran QB/WR who is good and would bring some thing to the table. I think, if that happens we should sign More ASAP! and make him the change of pace back. But I will not settle with just someone.

I agree with the majority. Keep him and use Memo for trade bait if necessary.

i think memo is an ufa

No way. The tandom of Ct and AD is as good as it gets. And when/if TJ learns how to be an nfl QB, that tandom is going to open things up.
