One of my sources close to the situation said that flags are at half-mast at Winter Park. NoodleHeart has gone to the darkside.

My anonymous sources are saying that he will be moved to RB to replace McFadden.

I wonder if Michael Johnson is hoping to get another big deal. Kinda strange to have a player at the facility all day and here almost no news and have the GM say he has barely talked to him.

It's all due to him just being electric at the shuttle run drill.

The Vikings are getting more interesting by the minute. A guy asked me the other day where will Wallace land(we were talking about Suh), and I spurted out, "the VIKINGS". He laughed. I said why not. What the heck. Teams are playing Free Agent Trade Musical Chairs. It is exciting to see such action when we are all waiting impatiently on the draft and beyond.
I wonder if the draft is going to be mostly chalk or will it be wild and woolly like the past few days.

THANK YOU RAIDERS! MUAHHHHH :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

Why would Rick overpay Wallace after he just overpaid Jennings? Sounds like Wallace is getting the whole contract. Did the same thing with Berrian.

Its one thing to to fix a blocking stance, or a better technique on how to get to the QB, but like i said before some guys have issues, and are what I would term as 'punks' and Wallace fits this title now, just like he did when Pitt decided to trade him. Hopefully our new #1 WR can manage more then 60 rec.
Pitt didn't trade him. He signed as a free agent with miami

I'm starting to think this is somehow related to keeping adrian as well, so he doesnt feel as if he's coming into a snoozefest. If adrian stays this offense can quite possibly be extremely explosive.....

Amen. Imagine him with less stress and just running his heart out. Not having to carry the team every single game. Should be exciting. I am still hoping for Spikes, knowing he isnt the best cover guy, he's all around so much better then anything we have now. Maybe try Cole as the 3rd down LB.

Michael Johnson files out in the morning. Visiting with Bengals next. Sounds like it's pretty much between those two. Things went well today
Ben Goessling @GoesslingESPN
#Vikings get to make one more pitch to Johnson before he flies out tomorrow morning. He'll go from here to Cincinnati.
I was hoping they wouldn't let Johnson leave before signing. This was probably the plan all along though. Visit both the Vikings and Bengals and then make a decision.

Plus I didnt want us to go FA on this big of a WR. Too much money. I really wanted to draft WR. Maybe they will use it to get a few restructures. Wouldnt hurt so bad then. Really makes me wonder what they are doing with AD with 10 mil gone.
1. I wouldn't worry bout cap hits. It was quoted already earlier today like right after he got off the phone with us, by Dolphins own media that "Wallace stated that he would be more than willing to re-structure his contract for the right team."

And 2. He's really not THAT much of a "punk" and He's always been very well liked and respected in the Locker room. But really, they're Professional Football Players, 80% of these guys are douchebags, that's no suprize, been that way since like 820a.d. every now and then you get like one guy whos a super Rad dude, But I don't know or understand why anyone expects or assumes otherwise. If all these guys had Super Character they'd be out doing Super Character jobs that actually contribute to this world.
I dunno, with me anyways, I just think the more you pay attention to or let yourself be affected by any of these guys' personal lives and etc. The faster and more UN-Fun football becomes.

It's absolutely entertaining, it's fun, exciting, and growing up I definitely learned a few things as a teammate that I brought with me to better things in my life, But, to try and find any real like valued "importance" in the NFL etc. Is absolutely absurd.

Maybe Wallace happens to be a total #### hat, and if he comes in and adds to the whole pot of the Vikings that allows you to have a lot of fun and a lot of interesting conversations etc. Should it REALLY matter?

Is there anything else that is this fun when it's -30 below for 7 months....? All I'm saying is don't let that kind of stuff ruin it for ya.

SKOL Vikes! Let's go bring home that trophy finally! I REEAALLLY WANT TO SEE WHAT A PACKER FAN LOOKS LIKE WHEN THEY'RE NOT TALKING!
