Like I said, what is the point of not paying AD if we are not going to do anything. I get that $18 million is way too much, but what have we done with the extra money?

Still plenty of time left to spend money. Vikings had ~$35M in cap space going into today ...

Pretty disappointing day so far. Still a lot of work needed to be done on the OL. Whitworth would have been the perfect addition at that price.

As for the AD discussion, it says something when all of the reports out there are saying there's currently no market for him. All of those teams him and ...

Teddy was a lot better this week. Sure he didn't have to do a ton but he was there when they needed him. Made a couple of much needed throws, including the beauty to Wallace between 2-3 defenders. Also made a few nice plays on the ground when he had nothing through the air.

I agree that Kalil is ...

Teddy can handle it so I doubt mind Zimmer being hard on him publicly. Teddy wasn't good in that game regardless of what the final numbers say. He knows he has to be better too.

As for Greenway, I'm not surprised Zimmer wouldn't call him out because he seems to show a lot more respect for veterans ...

A lot went wrong last night. That was really really bad all around. Not going to focus too much on the negative stuff though.

One positive was that Barr looked pretty good. No lingering issues with the injuries he had. He was moving well and one of the only defenders making plays.

Wallace was ...

I hope he doesn't get booed but wouldn't be surprised if he does. He's a good guy but just a bad QB.

So just theoretically, if it comes down to Patterson and Sherels, who makes a bigger difference in terms of Wins and Losses this season? I think its obviously Sherels.

I'd definitely go with Patterson. He's looking better as a KR than he did last year and he can still be valuable with the ball ...

Went back to the pre-draft stuff to read some more scouting reports on him and I came across this tweet:

Doug Farrar @SI_DougFarrar
I'm comparing T.J. Clemmings to Tyron Smith. Am I nuts? Perhaps. But after further review, I believe he could be that good over time.

Nice detailed breakdown of Kendricks' game:

It looked like they were getting blown 2-3 yds back during the first couple of series. Very alarming IMO. Did Zimmer mention it during any of the press conferences?

The other thing I'm starting to get concerned about is they are not finishing drives. This game should've been something like 41-3 ...

Speaking of preseason football ... a friend invited me to the Bears game tonight. It should be fun! Is there anything in particular anybody wants me to "scout" about our NFC North rival in their first preseason game?

For individual players I wouldn't mind a recap of Eddie Goldman's play. Hearing ...

Nice. It still doesn't show up on my guide so I had no idea. Glad I don't have to wait for the repeat on Sunday.

I mentioned a few days ago how it was nice to see all the positive tweets about Hodges early in camp. Well, it looks like he has only looked better since then and Zimmer has said some good things about him in recent days. Not sure how the move to MLB will work out but I think it's clear that Zimmer ...

It's going to be a learning process for Waynes. He's a rookie corner so he's going to have his struggles early. Based on what I've read, Zimmer seems to be throwing a lot at him right now too by having him take reps both outside and in the slot.

Couple guys really like Thompson. Calling him a "sleeper" to start at RG. I wouldn't go that far...yet. But who knows. It's still open. I think they said Harris was the "biggest" (heaviest?) guy on the team, which isn't necessarily a bad thing for a guard if he can still move.

I also understand ...
