This is a no frills forum designed for entertaining discussion about our beloved Vikings. Many of us have been discussing Vikings football together for years/decades, resulting in a camaraderie which we strive to preserve.
If they somehow got one of the big 3 I might say the hell with the bridge and start him
Brissett would be my second choice after Minshew. If we went a bridge.
I like Tannehill, Minshew, Brissett, Howell, and Rudolph from the bridge QBs category....
It all depends on how much they'd sign for.... but more importantly, if they'd fully embrace the mentorship role to a 1st round rookie QB.... if (hopefully when) draft one......

Bos who do you like at QB? I must of missed where you said who you like. In the draft.

Williams.... despite any of his arrogance (seemingly) and any other off the field/focus question marks......
He's easily the best of the group IMO, and lucky for us has shown willingness to make some noise and possibly tell Bears he's not going to be a Bear even if they try to draft him (pulling an Eli Manning essentially)
Which means.... us moving to #2 overall might land us Williams.....
Maye I want to study some film on..... he's got tools, but I am starting to go cold on him..... Daniels #3, but maybe #2..... and Nix is #4 for me..... I think because hes not flashy, many hold that against him..... #5 Penix Jr (would be probably #2 on my list if not for injuries... I think he has an elite arm) and last is the wild card.... McCarthy..... very tough to get a read on him..... this list could change quite a bit as I watch some film between now and draft.....
I'm intrigued by Baker especially if we could structure the deal like Seattle did with Geno Smith. His cap hit year 1 was only 10 mil. Structure it so there's an out in year 2 so if the rookie we draft is ready then we could flip Baker for assets latee on. Basically Baker gives you close to the same level of production of Kirk with no where near the financial investment and unlike Kirk Baker wouldn't be threatened by a 1st rd pick sitting behind him. His OC in Tampa is gone and Mike Evans is as well. That team is due to regress imo
Plus signing Baker gives you a legit playoff winning starter. Also In the event we can't trade up for one of the top 3 we can address defense at 11 or trade back and get another pick or two and still be in range for Nix Pennix and McCarthy

Why would baker take that when he’s about to get a 40-45m deal with someone else?
