Trae Waynes going to the Bengals is a huge loss for the Vikings. Really, really huge. Despite what the talking heads here want you to believe. They keep talking about how he was okay but never great. Yeah well cornerback is a hard ass position to play and he played hard. He always gave 100%. And he was good far more than not. This is a legit loss and one that we'll feel every week.

I can't imagine what Rick Spielman's strategy is. I understand releasing Xavier Rhodes, he went from a top CB to a less than average one in two seasons. But now letting Waynes go? I have never been a big Trae Waynes fan, but letting him go means they are minus both starting CB's from last season's team. I think Holtan Hill had a excellent season and deserve a starting spot, but other than that the Vikings are CB poor.

Talk is they are going to put the Franchise tag on on Anthony Harris. What? Tag a Safety who is mediocre at best?

With the Diggs trade they also now need another good receiver in order to help free up Thielen. That receiver is not on the present roster so that means another trade? The Draft? Not a good situation.

I am at my wit's end with this team, but have been a fan far to long to give up on them. I guess that means more years of frustration.

I have a feeling they want Bisi to be the number 2. That's not going to scare anybody. Thielen will be doubled all season and Kirk will just checkdown or throw a screen to Cook for short or nothing. I agree. This is going to be a long season.
