The best part of it is the fact that when he signed the new 2 year contract a month ago, he didn't get any signing bonus.

Nothing like giving a guy a 2 year contact & 30 days later when he's still excitedly jumping up & down because he believes he made the team, the Vikings kick him in the gnads & send him packing. LOL!

More cap space to sign a Safety.

His 2011 salary was only $875,000. Doubt any of our current 5 safety's are making anything big either.

We'd have to open up some ching to sign Merriweather.

How about the salaries of the other guys we gut like Farwell, DeGeare etc? If we could reconfig Greenway and use the cap space from a few other guys we could get there.

They were talking on the radio this week that AP will more than likely need to wait for a new contract. The person who floated the theory said the team would wait till next year and franchise Peterson and then give him a new deal the next year. Not sure I buy into it but that is what apparently was what some in the FO were looking at doing.

I don't think the difference between what we paid them vs. what we paid their replacements is all that huge. Certainly not Millions.

By "war pig", do you mean fat pig that can't block?

**marstc09** · 09-05-2011, 03:03 PM

I am going to go on a rant here. i am sick of good players getting hosed on by a certain someone. Payback time. Cook fucking sucks. He has always sucked. It has nothing to do with throwing him in early or any of that other bullshit excuses I heard. He is a terrible blocker. He obviously is not very bright. How many times can you make the same mistake over and over. His penalties are out of control. I am so glad he is off this team. He is not a pro-bowler which means more people than just one have seen something in you. Get it? He will never be a pro bowler. Hell he will never be a starter. Where is all this crap that was spewed about him being a serviceable OL? I am so glad we have Leslie in charge now. Cleaning out the garbage that is not cap related. Peace.
