Minnesota Vikings News & Discussion: 31 Aug 2022

Merry Wednesday, everyone, and welcome to Skoloholics! Join us as we discuss the latest Minnesota Vikings news, news from around the NFL, and virtually any other topic. On this site, the real action is in the comments, so if you haven’t checked out the comments section yet, you should join us!

Wow, busy day yesterday. A billion kudos to Mick for keeping up the roster cut tracker, as that was a lot of activity to track. The Vikings are now down to their final 53, which puts them in compliance with the league rules. This does not mean that the team is done making moves. As a matter of fact, it sure seems like they’re preparing to make a significant move of some sort. The Vikings cleared about $4 million in additional cap space yesterday, and the rumors about potential trade targets have been flying around the Twitters-phere. Names like Suh, Raegor, and Beckham Jr. have all been connected to talks with the Vikings. Time will tell whether any of these rumors become reality.

It is encouraging that the new Vikings front office doesn’t seem content to just stand-pat, so let’s hope they can find ways to improve the team. We’ll keep you updated with the latest activity, and Skoldiers is going to have a practice squad tracker where you can keep up with the latest practice squad signings and waiver claims. For now, y’all have at it in the comments, and remember, be cool to one another.

Splat.
A Wasilla man driving a motorcycle away from police at speeds of over 100 mph early Sunday morning hit a moose and died, Wasilla police said.
According to the Wasilla Police Department blotter, 36-year-old David Nagl of Wasilla died shortly after Wasilla police attempted to pull him over at the intersection of East Bogard Road and North Peck Street.
“Nagl turned west on Seldon Road, and continued eluding until he and the motorcycle impacted a moose at a speed estimated to be in excess of 100 mph near the intersection of N Jasper Driver,” police wrote. “Nagl was pronounced deceased at the scene.”
Wasilla police wrote that they attempted to pull Nagl over at 3:55 a.m. on Aug. 28 “for speeding, failing to stop for a stop light, failing to signal, and driving off the roadway while navigating a right turn.”

Nope nope nope.

Only accident I’ve ever been in in my life was when I splatted a brand new Ford Escort with my one-ton dually in Wasilla. It was about a 1/3 as long as it was before I hit it. Lady was lucky she was alive.

As I was driving 60, car ahead of me slowed, moved into the left-turn lane, and as I’m coming up she suddenly veers back onto the highway, and slams the brakes on in front of me.

Got a call from a trooper a couple weeks later that she had pulled this on someone else for the insurance money, so they threw her in jail after she got out of the hurty ward at the hospital.

No doubt he will suck this year as he has the last 2 but he could improve by 24 when AT is gone and we might suck a bunch less than we do. DT, LB, CB needed badly and have 2 drafts to do it. Maybe CB and LB in 23 and DT in 24 since DT rookies can be much more impactful than cb rooks.

31 August 2022 7:03 pm

good take, I agree. They’re going to try ball control running game on offense and stifling defense and allow Rodgers to pick his spots, primarily in the redzone, to put the game away. Really comes down to our defense. If we can stop the run and be fast sideline to sideline on screens and dump offs to the RB’s we should be fine. I’m not worried about a deep threat from them. Our offense has their work cut out against their defense.

Same guy… Blacklock Report

STRENGTHS

Ross has the athletic talent not seen in many players with his size. He is very powerful off the snap and changes the line of scrimmage on both running or passing downs. He has those long arms that make it very easy to keep big offensive lineman off his body allowing him to steer and manipulate his opponent and disrupt their blocking. Ross handles a double team with the strength in his lower and upper body that most players in the NFL do not possess. Ross has the power to play in a 2cap system against the run and the strength to split offensive lineman in a 1gap system, getting into the backfield and disrupting or making a play. He has good straight-line speed and solid foot quickness but what he brings to the next level is his athleticism to play any defensive line position in any kind of defensive system and impact if called upon to play them all. Ross has the “potential” to be as impacting as J J Watt if he plays outside in a 3/4 defense or as impacting as Fletcher Cox if he plays inside in a 4/3 defense. As far as playing on the nose in a 3/4 defense, he could be as good on passing downs as Aaron Darnold. He has that type of multiple athletic talent and size. 

CONCERNS

Ross has only one year of production to evaluate because of an injury (Achilles) that took him a full year to come back from. He lacks the change of direction skills to turn the corner when rushing the passer and will have to learn better hand fighting and pass-rushing techniques to become the power pass rusher his talents suggest he can become, much like J.J. Watt. He will also have to improve his balance and learn to get off blocks faster but the fact that he not only came back from his injury to impact, and lost weight, gaining muscle and strength, shows that Ross did not let his injury “own” him. 

BOTTOM LINE 1.37

The fact that Ross came back from his injury and improved his strength and muscle mass sends a signal to me that he is a person with a type-A personality. (Look it up I can’ta li do everything for you) Ross has only one year of productivity, and that means most teams will downgrade him for fear that he might not live up to his talent at the next level. I’ve looked at him and studied his interviews on the internet and play on film and took notice of his body type before his injury, and then after his injury. Coming back from the Achilles heel injury at his lack of mature age is impressive alone but coming back in better shape and better overall body type is what excites me about his potential for the next level. You look at his talent on film and you see right away he is impacting with room to grow technique-wise. Add that to his impressive mental stamina and goal setting personality and I don’t believe you are taking any more of a chance selected Ross than any other player in this draft, in spite of only one year of production. I believe, when Ross starts to work out and interview for teams they will come to the same conclusions that I have come. That is, a multi-athletic, talented player with a type-A personality, that given some more time to improve his techniques, will become one of the best players from the Draft class. We are talking J.J Watt, Fletcher Cox potential.

Scouting report on Reagor

STRENGTHS
Jalen is a very smart, fast, quick, strong, acrobatic catching receiver. His ability to explode quickly is dramatic and his ability to catch the ball in any situation is dramatic also. You don’t have to worry about separation with this kid because he knows HOW to run routes by changing gears and using his quickness and NOT just relying on his speed. He has good size and is tough and his run after the catch skills is excellent because of his vision and balance and lateral explosion. He has excellent hands, using strength and force when it is needed and softness when it is called upon like an Artist who creates sculptures. Jalen can be used inside because of his quickness and on the outside because of his speed. He will be able to help the team that selects him the day after the draft at any receiver position because of his route running skills, speed, quickness, and overall high football intelligence to run routes by changing gears to get open. 
CONCERNS
Some teams will downgrade Jalen for one reason and one reason only, his size, it’s only average. Not me, I look strictly at talent to compete because as a profiler and not an analyst, I know that talent to compete, comes in all sizes and that size is not a deciding factor unless that person doesn’t have the talent. 
BOTTOM LINE 1.61 

To me, size is a factor but it’s not the deciding factor, not to select a player in the draft if, they have the talent. Jalen has the talent to compete so suggesting that his “only average size”, should be a reason to downgrade him perplexes me. Jalen might be the smartest receiver in this draft, or maybe just one of the smartest receivers. Jalen might be the fastest receiver in this draft, or maybe one of the fastest. He also could be the most acrobatic receiver, or maybe just one of those also. Or maybe Jalen is one of the only receivers in this draft who can run routes and gets separation better than any other receiver in this draft. If you watch the film and agree with what I just wrote and then you say but…he is not big enough; all I can do is give you an NCIS slap, to the back of your head. Jalen has first-round talent to impact right away on my talent board. If you’re a team that doesn’t value receivers high in this draft and waits to select Jalen, all I can say is good luck if you’re looking for a receiver who can impact right away and help turn your passing game from nothing to something. As far as I’m concerned Jalen is the Donatello of this group of very talented wide receivers.

-Spread scheme threw field wide open for him

-Needs more attention to detail with his routes

-Too complacent to beat coverage with athletic ability

-Unable to run away and separate from tight man

-Size and strength across from him impede production

-Will take time adjusting to press looks as a pro

-Limited one-on-one prowess to win 50/50 throws

-Separation talent just average outside

  1. He can field punts and can score TDs off them. Better than any PR specialist we’ve had since Shreles
  2. He has good traits to be a solid WR in this league. High upside
  3. Has a QB that can actually throw the ball
  4. Low risk possible high reward
  5. Could be a good hedge with AT big cap hit next season

he sux donkey balls and that’s why he was let go for a 7th only 2 years after being drafted in rd 1 ahead of JJ. He had under 300 yards last year when they had zero wr’s and no rb’s at all. We pay him 2M over our draft pick who is 500K. lmao

Wrong. The Vikings are paying Reagor $4,236,036 over the next 2 years and $4,202,455 to JJ over this year and next. A whopping $33,581 difference.

OK, still wrong. ISM would have made $1.765 million between 2022 and 2023, not 500k. Less than $2.5 million more over 2 years for Reagor over ISM who couldn’t catch a punt and was afraid to catch the ball.

This year ISM was set to make $825,000 in base salary. Reagor will make $1,816,425. While over twice as much to Reagor (not hard with an $828K salary), it is not over $2 mill over what ISM was set to make like you said. Nor was ISM set to make 500K.

He is not making 2M, ISM is not making 500K and Reagor does not have a 4M dead cap hit unless cut before the season starts (that ain’t happening).

That sounds right. I think it is just over 2M salary next year, but they could trade him for a 7th and have 0 cap hit. If he has any production this year and they want to move on for some reason, somebody will give up at least a 6th or 7th for a former 1st round pick. Depending on the offset language in his contract, even if they cut him they might not be on the hook for the entire 2M contract if he is signed by another team.

You already heard it hear first. KJ going to have more yards than AT this year. Raegor, ISM, Nailor, whoever, aren’t going to get a lot of targets anyways. Good depth if AT or someone has to miss time.

This ^ Having bad blind side protection is one thing, but getting beat up the middle and having someone in Kirks lap every time he drops back is bad. Thats how the few teams that do do it, beat Tom Brady, pressure up the middle. If it can throw off Brady, its gonna really mess with Kirk. I like our weapons and skill positions, I really do, but we are far from perfect and we still have weaknesses that need to be addressed.

Not super shocked but still a shocker in a way. ISM looked super uncomfortable catching punts and ISM is scared to get hit in the middle of the field. He’s solid on the outside, but everytime he had to go to middle he dropped balls bc he’s always looking where the DB is. Think he was somewhat skiddish
