Minnesota Vikings News and Links: Should The Vikings Keep Greenard?

We’re a month away from the 2026 NFL Draft. Free agency is essentially wrapped up, with very few impact players still on the market.

Vikings Draft Thoughts
The NFL Draft is still a little over a month away, but for the Minnesota Vikings a lot is riding on this draft.

Between the Vikings salary […]
What’s Going on Here?
Well, this team is never boring… I had nearly finished an article about the Vikings’ quarterback situation, considering the Kyler Murray signing and the idea of a Murray-McCarthy-Brosmer/other quarterback room for 2026. Then, the Vikings unexpectedly re-signed Carson Wentz out of nowhere. Now I don’t know what the heck is going on. Well, a bit […]
