Nope... he was in my if you were the GM post. Always thought he was a great WR. Can't believe people on this site think.. Cobb and Nelson are better. No way.

Jennings was the receiver that I wanted the Vikings to go out and get. He has good hands and runs great routes.

As far as who wanted him, you guys sound like a bunch of fifth graders saying they liked Batman when they were two years old rather than five years old. I was laughing at that last week, and I am laughing now. I should add that I have been giving kudos to Jennings for years, and Iron Man was my favorite comic superhero when I was a kid, so there!

Awesome! Any cap space to sign Danario Alexander as well?

Signing Jennings was a good move. Just think how much better he'd be with a better QB throwing to him. That goes for Rudolph as well. When I saw him snagging those long passes in the Pro Bowl game, I felt we were really wasting his talents with Ponder at QB.

I like the move. We didn't get to see Ponder throw a lot of long balls. A couple to Simpson and a couple to Wright and Percy. I think we will see more attempts this year. I think we will find out he can throw the long ball better than we thought.

MIgth be the worst article every written.
While I think Jennings stats will go down because I don't believe Ponder will ever break the 3000 yard mark, he is walkinginto a situation where a star TE is about to take the next leap. He is playing with one of the all time best in football at the RB position to make thos deep posts and quick slants open longer. Minus the QB situation, he is in WRs dream position...although he could use a good (not great WR on the other side of him).

No we found out...He cannot throw the deep ball accurately.
Sometimes he hits...other times its bad...real bad, Michael Jackson.

Singer never had a problem with us signing Jennings. IMO, Jennings was the better WR to sign over Wallace, who several here were pining for.

You want to find someone not happy with this signing, check with Marrdro, then look in the mirror.

Ouch. Musta struck a Maeve lol
