Mike Wallace traded to the Vikings for a 5th round pick

Yes, and let's ignore the RT position b/c we like to focus on the negative.

Let's see.. that's a interior O-line that looks very stout, a RT position that looks solidified, and a LT position with multiple options to improve. You realize that is 4/5?

Gotta love emo thinking...

Nobody is saying Gettlemen hasn't done a good job..

Just not enough to surround a pro bowl Franchise awards winning and record breaking young QB..

But he at least admitted his failing last year and I fully expect him to increase the talent around Cam this off-season like he promise he would do..

Still mention his failing like he has himself isn't a bad thing..

So then why did you start spitting out snarky retorts at my first post making fun of people who think it is one giant conspiracy theory, if you in fact don't think it is one giant conspiracy theory?

Because both sides are so extreme either way..

One side Gettlemen has done no wrong = not true

One side Gettlemen hates Cam = not true

But this off-season he does need to prove he is committed to giving Cam weapons and protection. .

Yes, Luck got weapons and Teddy B got a weapon, but come on guys. Why trade a pick and then have to pick up a hefty contract when this draft has many guys who can come in and be the type of player Mike Wallace will be for the Vikes. We're a young but experienced team very few teams can say that and I have no doubt that this draft (with what 6 picks!?) will be as solid as the last. It's easy to try to trade and pay your way into success but it hardly ever works. This takes time and were so close. DG said 2 years ago that his plan wasn't about that year (2014) or the next (2015). It was setting us up for 2016. Imagine going into 2016 with Cam and Luke locked up, have 8 players (last year's rookies) with 3 years of experience, this year's class going into their second year and still being cap comfortable and with a full selection of picks. My God, that's exciting.

The plan is good.. But last year was irresponsible what he put around Cam. Which he has admitted in a few interviews. . This off-season needs to be dedicated to getting Cam better. . And actually finding out what you truly have in him..

We already accepted the fact they aren't bringing in a offensive mind to better use the weapons we have..

So I guess bringing in more talent to make Shula play calling look better is the answer. .

No more fly routes with a slow possession WR who can't get separation on a DE.. Put a faster more talented guy on that 9 route then..

So your argument is that both sides are too extreme, and you are proving that by acting like a full on Gettleman sabotage conspiracy?

I don't think you really thought this one through...

The vikes are a deeply traditioned franchise, once they have a QB they build around him. Bridgewater with his pocket artistry and accuracy can really cause damage to a defense. Now I see them going OL in the draft.

You see how simple it is. This franchise has been trying to do that for the last 5 years with Cam or at least they pretend they are.

They've been trying to build a defense while still asking their offense to win games because the defense can't get stops.
