We cannot have a thread about tanking? A year long possibility, but we can have threads like trading Kirk? Ok, I see, it's about the reality...

On another note, it's not just about Trevor, if we are truly going to have a bad season, lets find the silver lining and start targeting in on the 2021 Vikings and the rebuild. There are some very good players at the top of the 21 draft that could be worth looking at on Saturdays because Sundays are painful.

copied this on another board some weeks ago but it will do;
With 15 draft picks they can go very young and get those young players some NFL experience. You can identify who is worth keeping going forward.
With Hunter ailing you can take your time bringing him back and build your defense around him and Kendricks going forward.
Get Dye on the field at LB, get him experience and see what potential he has.
Harris is over 30 and on a 1 year franchise deal so his departure frees up $12M = Cap savings $$$.
Reiff is very likely in his last year so lets get Cleveland in there now, Reiff gone at the end of the year = more Cap savings $$$. Update ***Rieff is having a very good year, we can trade him or keep him at this pay level,
Get Uda on the field and get him playing time, we need to know what his upside is...
Get Jefferson and Irv more playing time, Rudy is likely gone next year moving forward = more Cap savings $$$.
With very young CBs you will be lucky to be able to stop top QBs from throwing on the Vikings D, even more so with a poor pass rush.
With the Pandemic this year, it offers a great opportunity to totally flip the roster in what will most probably be an asterisk year. The NFL seems to be a league where you need a Top QB on a Rookie deal to have a real shot at the Championship.
Will being really bad suck? off course but I can't think of a better year to do it and get one of the best pro prospects in years. The Vikings could be back in the payoffs as contenders in 2 years.

Who cares. With this GM and coaching staff, the team would just fuck it up anyway and draft a cornerback.

Id rather have Fields that running QB is a great threat I would take any 1 of the 3 QB's projected at the top of the draft. They would be a vast improvement over what we have now. |

Didn't ban it. Just moved it to the Draft Forum since it's week 6 and the other tank threads needed some company.  |
