I like having the vet to help his development.....but I'm all about developing one guy at a time there.

Not sure who Devlin is....but I'm not in favor of carrying 3 guys right now.

He's been dealing with some injuries. I wonder if they (and the grind) got to him. Maybe baseball? I thought he was also a baseball player. Dunno.

‏@greggabe When Locker was in the draft, there were questions if he really "loved" football. That was answered today

@MNBrianHall Iupati reportedly got $22.5 million guaranteed. Wow. Yeah, can't imagine Vikings were touching that one.

.@KFAN1003 is running Christian Ponder Free Agency updates with just dead air. It's equal parts delightful & mean spirited.

Really? I think an NFL team should always carry 3 QBs. The Vikes have gone to the third QB on their depth chart in 3 of the last 5 years, though not always out of necessity (*cough* Freeman *cough*). To me, it just makes sense to always have another guy with starting potential developing in the "pipeline" because fortunes can change so quickly in the NFL.

The former Viking come home to roost. wasn't he hurt last year, or was that the year before? I still think that Campbell was the better move unless Norv and he did not get along. I thought for the most part Campbell ran Norv's offense fairly well in Cleveland after Hoyer went down. Was it not Campbell who threw Josh Gordon into the record books? Ahhh, just a thought. What the hell do I know? I cant even keep my Hill's straight.

@RapSheet: The #Bills are signing FB Jerome Felton

@christomasson Source close to Hill says key reason for going to Vikings was having spent 2006 with Norv Turner in SF. Said Hill easily can fit into system
