Thread: Vikings' bad offseason moves

I still find it amazing that guys like this have no clue when it comes to the difference between the LDE and RDE positions.
Sounds like he expects Edwards to start on one side and Robison on the other when in fact, going into the season I bet Mitchell is tapped as the starter.

No other Vet is out there that appear to be viable candidates to come in and supplant Mithcell.
My bet is they will draft a LDE in the draft and will look to add a VET that fits if one is cut after the draft.

Personally, I've had it with wasting draft picks on DE's!
For some reason we just don't have the lords of Vahalla on our side when it comes to the outside pass rush.
It is painful to watch the opposing qb in a perpetual comfort zone!
With 2 Pro Bowl DT's
it is laughable the we don't have an end with 10+ sacks.
Just imagine what a healthy, proven, "iron-man" type, above average DE could do when the Williams Wall commands constant double teams!
Why can't we get a decent end in here?
You'd think ends would love to play with K-Will and Big Bad Pat.
I just don't get it!

I think we have a couple of keepers in Edwards and Robison.
They just needed a bit of seasoning.
I really think Edwards (not sure about the whole Roids scandle) will have a double digit year this year and Rob will be close behind him.

Again, mostly just based off the fact that these guys need to learn how to outsmart/outplay the more experienced Tackles in the league.

I'm sick of drafting DEs in the early rounds too
