Where's this McKinnon hate coming from? He IS faster and stronger than Harvin, and watching Mckinnon reminds me a lot of Harvin in his running style. And what makes you think he's dumb? He doubled-up AD, Patterson, and your guy, Harvin on the Wunderlic score. He even beat Teddy. Is there any evidence that McKinnon struggled to pick up the offense at all last year? Had he gotten a full year under him he likely would have been a ROY candidate.Demi wrote: Maybe we can make Hernandez a contract offer for the future! And yeah, not our responsibility to judge them, even when they lose an entire season. None of our business. Cost the team we cheer for wins? None of our business. Getting paid to sit at home? None of our business. Give me a break.
And now McKinnon is faster and stronger than Harvin?
McKinnon, AD, and Patterson on the field at the same time? Speed, athleticism, and half the brains of Matt Forte. You would have three guys who can barely block, two that struggle to run routes, two that have had trouble understanding the previous offenses. And Norv's is apparently even more complicated. Didn't we see last year how good being an "athlete" is when you can replace one with a practice squad player from a bottom of the league team and still get results. I'd hate to be Norv trying to get those three to work in the offense.
Exactly what I was saying. That's why I said I have no clue where he comes up with his information because it's either false or makes no sense. I still question if he can be a full time RB that can carry the load but that's just my opinion. I'm really anxious to see how everything plays out with AP, in FA, the draft, etc. I'm sick of waiting!!!!!maembe wrote: Where's this McKinnon hate coming from?

AZ came close last year, restructured Larry and Carson, and must feel they are 1-2 players away. Could AP be that player?
Trade AP for a 3rd and a 5th this year and some kind of pick that can improve next year based on his production. Use the additional cap to lock up a couple FA's who will be cut during the coming weeks, the kind Zimmer likes-young'ish vets who were just cap casualties after FA has begun.
Move on Vikes, the AP era should be over. Have 1 more season with Teddy getting his NFL legs under him, and launch into the new stadium with Teddy as new face of franchise along with plenty of young players who should be purple and gold for a long time:
Teddy
Barr
Rhodes
Floyd
Smith
Everson
Kyle
2015 draft picks
And even Kalil and Patterson IF they can revive a career

49ers have called the Vikings regarding Adrian Peterson. Nothing serious, gauging interest/AP contract demands.

There's no "hate". And I never said he was dumb. I was referring to the other two.maembe wrote: Where's this McKinnon hate coming from?
