The Vikings = the Dolphins. Not a "further in the playoffs" candidate.
He's speaking directly to the team that just lost Ladarius Snead to the Titans, or Maybe the Ravens, who lost some of their db's in FA.
I think the vikings are pretty much done in fa until after the draft. They did pretty good tho- ON PAPER. 13 FA adds, a few departures.
Perhaps the ceiling on the signees is a tad lower than the departures. However- especially in front 7. I think the depth is greatly improved. Last year- they had to chase street free agents like Vigil & Barr bc the lber depth was really weak. This year- they dont lose much from #1 inside lber to #5. And the starting combo of Cashman & Pace in the middle could be dam impressive.
Caveat- the vikings seem to always win the eye test from march-june. Its the eye test from Nov- Feb we are in hopes of finally being a win. Its been a long long while(actually never) since we had purple february football. Still- I dont remember the last time the vikings got an off season "F" from the pundits.
