“It seems unlikely that Carson Wentz re-signed with the Vikings to be the third-string quarterback this season, or that Kyler Murray signed with the Vikings to be the second-string QB…” says @Charley_Walters, he goes on… “Curiously, a few weeks ago, during the rookie mini-camp, the Vikings brought in former Dallas-Baltimore QB Cooper Rush for a tryout…if the Vikings were to get a decent offer, say a third-round draft pick, for QB J.J. McCarthy, it wouldn’t be surprising if Minnesota starts the season with Murray, Wentz and perhaps Rush as its top three QBs.” Is a 3rd round pick enough for the Vikings to move off of McCarthy?

Kyler Murray when he gets that chemistry with Justin Jefferson 🔜

Healy is also a get. He comes from a Browns front office that has been the forefront of the league with analytics. Year after year peers have put their dept at the top of the league, Teasley with two great additions here.

For the Grigson haters…. He’s staying around

Kirchner is a get. Goes way back with Teasley. Minnesota native coming home

The back half of the Vikings WR room will be pretty interesting to watch. The Vikings kept only 5 WRs last year at the 53-man deadline, but I don't think they're going to be able to get away with that. I think they're going to need 6. - Locks: Justin Jefferson, Jordan Addison, Jauan Jennings (3) - Likely a lock because of PR/KR: Myles Price (1) UDFA Dillon Bell is splashing early and already getting reps with the first team, meanwhile former 2025 3rd round pick Tai Felton is doing well per reports too. Will be interesting to watch. I think they keep 6.

Let the QB talkers for the summer continue!

This was louder.

For those asking, my understanding is that this is the extent of the initial changes to the Vikings' front office under new GM Nolan Teasley.

Here we go!

Good segment, watch it. Leber makes some valid points regarding the trade of the “loser” but it’s really going to depend on how that person would accept their role on the team.

What are the odds KOC names QB1 today and doesn’t leave it until camp?

"You know who was the first overall pick in 2018? A guy by the name of Baker Mayfield...Here is Kyler's chance to prove it." 👀

IMO these critiques just say everything about how oddly invested some folks are in JJ McCarthy. It’s been crazy how quickly some rally to his defense. Kyler Murray is better than him. He’s established. That said, how Kyler looks in any given June practice isn’t that important.

The veteran edge market is starting to move. Would love to see the Vikings land someone like Leonard Floyd, Jadeveon Clowney, Kyle Van Noy, or Von Miller before training camp.

This is great news. Expected to be back for training camp but any work he can get before then is a bonus.

NOT a Viking.

Gooodness

Wouldn’t expect anything definitive this week from what @TomPelissero said but sounds like the Vikings won’t let this competition bleed into training camp. There is voluntary OTAs next week to close out the Spring calendar before training camp in Jul/Aug but there’s been talks that veterans may get next week off (not confirmed yet).

Fair to critique coverage. On the trade question: Many many many people have been speculating on whether J.J. McCarthy would be/wants to be/should be traded. Had anyone actually asked him if there is any basis to it? Doesn't that matter? Isn't that the point of access?
