nate says vikings is reality!!

**nareg** · 03-18-2006, 04:59 PM

Receiver Nate Burleson said the Vikings remain his reality. But he acknowledged that playing in his hometown of Seattle for the Seahawks still is a "fantasy." He visited Seattle on Friday.
"I feel I'm a Minnesota Viking. That's obviously something I would never put on the back burner," Burleson said. "But when you match that against the hometown that you were raised in, it could definitely be a tough decision."
A restricted free agent, Burleson

That's awesome news.. Let's hope he stays

I was hoping he stayed here also. It would be a shame to lose all the good players.

Sounds good. I just hope he can stay healthy and be a factor for the whole season. Imagine a healthy Burly, K-Rob, and T-Will. Right there is some blazing speed, great hands, and great moves.. If he can stay healthy, I would love to see him back with the Vikes..

Wow I really hope we keep Nate. He is a real good player that is only going to get better.

I wouldn't mind Burly coming back either. I am a little torn because I would sure love to have another 3rd rounder to help bait a trade. If Burly goes somewhere, we will get a 3rd round pick for him. That would give us 2 in the 2nd and 2 in the 3rd. We can trade our 1st, a second, and a third to trade up in the draft and never lose a step.

I think a team like the Saints who need to rebuild would love to have all those picks. Just my opinion of course. I think it would be pretty tempting though.

If he remains a Vike, I'm okay with that too. He is a good WR when healthy and has good speed for the WCO.

do you happen to remember the game against the packers on christmas eve a couple years back?? member those wr screens he turnd in for tutchdowns? i think it was two? that is why I would love to keep him, if he can create that in the WCO, that would be awesome!
