1. After yesterday I feel really bad for our young kids. It’s a black day because we have a party that doesn’t care about kids. All I can say is be careful what you wish for.

2. Unfortunately our CB pick was killed by a drunk driver.

3. Right guard and DT with our 1st and free agent $.

4. I’m happy that the Minnesota Vikings traded for Cam Robinson!!! I like the Vikings got cam Akers

5. Still VIKINGS look very good for this playoff run. 👍. Defensive and offensive. State of Minn. doing a impressive job. Go VIKINGS.

6. Ok, we getting Blackmon back next year, use the FA to get a DT and Veteran CB and then that completely opens you up to use your 1st round pick wherever you need, another CB/another DT, CENTER!

7. Cam Robinson made the trade time a success, even without getting a big DL. Meanwhile, Vikings can still snipe a huge human off somebody else's practice squad, or promote from within. It ain't gonna be perfect, but they saved their 2025 first round pick, where at the very least they could get a huge DL with potential.

8. Lions sign DT Alim McNeill to $97 million, 4-year deal in franchise's latest investment. ALLEN PARK, Mich. (AP) — The Detroit Lions have decided to make defensive tackle Alim McNeill their latest investment, retaining a key player with a long-term deal.Oct 16, 2024

9. Guys… I went on the show in the off season and threw out some stats about the Vikings on hitting on average players..ie anyone who played a majority of the snaps with an actual role and the hit rate was like 10 percent… Any job like that and you are getting fired…

   This has been a problem since 2015

10. They need to cut CJ ham… Save 2.5million that you can use on a new RB,.RG, cb, DT salary…

    A blocking TE as a UDFA would be league minimum and that is all he really does at age 32

11. Cam was a big enough win and we have given away enough picks

12. Rick hit on picks. Kwesi doesn't. Simple

13. Lol McNeil already signed an extension with the Lions

14. Kwesi has done a good job acquiring proven talent poor guy just can’t draft for nothing but can we plz go after the Cleveland DT just cut

15. No problem. This team this year going nowhere.

16. Maybe I'm typing this too soon & Phil will cover the $ on that lattimore deal but that's a horrible trade. He's owed I believe $28 & $30 mil over the next 2 years. He's been hurt continuously. That's an all in this year deal with a rookie Jayden Daniels. Taking on that contract & a soon to be 29 year old CB on the downside is extremely risky. There's a high probability a year from now Washington fans are not happy about that trade on top of what it does to your off-season roster construction.

17. One position nobody is talking about is safety. What do you do about harrison smith and Cam bynum? we have Metellus, but man, that depth could deplete quickly

18. grigson is in kwesi's ear re: picks and probably trades, too

19. Ummm….McNeil signed a 4 year extension weeks ago Einstein.

20. McNeil signed an extension

21. They need to take care of the issues on both lines first. That's why I wanted to see a good DT picked up before the trade deadline. Everyone kept saying take care of it during free agency. There just aren't that many free agent DT's. They also need to deal with the guard & center problems. Deal with the lines first, then worry about DB's & a RB.

22. The Lions have sucked for decades and are usually picking early. Let’s see how they do late in the rounds now.

23. McNeil signed a 4 year deal this year
