I can't imagine they don't pluck 1 or 2 OL off the waiver wire.

Wonder who they got their eye on off of waivers ? We need to pick up someone.

@Andrew_Krammer #Vikings waive RB Dominique Williams, leaving them with Peterson-McKinnon-Asiata at RB on the active roster.
@GoesslingESPN Tyrus Thompson is safe for now, I'm told, because of the concussion he sustained on Thursday. Vikings can't cut him yet.

@christomasson #Vikings reportedly trading for San Diego OL Jeremiah Sirles. He was undrafted last year out of Nebraska. Jeremiah Sirles didn't play for Norv Turner in San Diego since Turner's last year there was 2012.

@mattvensel Safety Anthony Harris has been informed of his release, per a league source.
Too bad he was injured for most of his time here. Was hoping he'd be a pleasant surprise.

@ArifHasanNFL Sirles has played both guard and tackle. Good preseason (2014 UDFA from Nebraska)

was disappointed with him. He spent more time on the ground than any Offensive Lineman I have ever seen.

In other news, the Bills have waived Matt Cassel. Feel bad for the guy.
