I would rank them Kirko, Geno, Minshew, Flacco, Mullens, Dimes 

Kirk isn't being traded, but he's my first choice also. Geno is likely 2 of the possibly available guys. I don't know if I care after that.

Jauan Jennings has been ruled out with a calf injury he suffered on Thursday?

The Vikings better watch out, if he ends up being traded after being ruled out with this 'injury'. I'm pretty sure the league has investigated teams before for using the IR as means to bench players. Which the Vikings have seemed to have done multiple times the past two years.

I've been sorta surprised Taylor hasn't come up with an injury this week.

I don’t really understand this. Jenkins has been ruled out for the game (not on the IR or PUP) and still counts towards the 53 man active. What is the benefit to the Vikings for taking the approach vs just not playing him because they might trade him.

I’m a Vikings rube, and I’m watching most of this Monday night game, and… 

GTFO with this unserious ****. Honest to God. 

(not sure I feel better or if that’s productive for the conversation, but there, I said it.)

Yeah, I don't know why I'm in a bad mood when I always thought this defense was good enough and the schedule was easy enough for 11 wins but the offense was bad enough to get embarrassed in the first round of the playoffs.

I accepted that fate in September, yet here I am stewing about it in November.

And to clarify, getting embarrassed in the first round of the playoffs is just as bad of a fate as missing out on the playoffs in my book.

Regardless if the new GM wants to or not, I'm guessing the Wilfs are already on the phone with him telling him that Kirk Cousins is going to be on a plane to Minnesota tomorrow and they don't care what he has to give up to make that happen.

And I'm thinking it's going to be a price that will make my stomach churn.

I thought KOC was supposed to be a "quarterback whisperer". He showed 1 QB who had a resurgence in MN enough to warrant another team signing him. That same QB also just happened to win a Super Bowl. I think this season, even with all the success, might be his last. These reclamation project QB's need to stop. Wentz isn't it. Murrey isn't it. AND for sure Brosmer definitely isn't it. I'm waiting for the JJ or Addison to demand a trade out of the crap show that is the Vikings offense.

I have zero interest bailing KOC out of the mess he put this offense in. Sell baby sell! 

Even if it's the right move, ownership will never agree to it. There's five more home games left and they're not going to willingly alienate most of the fanbase.

Agreed.

https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/source-vikings-will-trade-for-a-quarterback-today

Florio seems to think he has a source. From my PFT experience, that tends to be pretty hit or miss. Anyway, per the source, the Vikings are talking to teams about Daniel Jones, Geno Smith, Mac Jones, Kirk Cousins, Marcus Mariota and Jameis Winston and possibly two 'surprise' QBs. Florio speculates the surprises would be two of Herbert, Stafford and Darnold.

Anyway, the Vikings almost certainly are going to do something at QB, and the 'source' basically listed every possible option so this isn't exactly the breaking news Florio thinks it is, his source might as well also predicted that tomorrow will be Wednesday.

Also, I still call Jerry Jones for a second time and ask about Dak Prescott just to piss Jerry off.

Here we go again…

Schefter is such a goon. Everyone and their grandmother identified Kirk Cousins as a Vikings trade target about six weeks ago.

Bring something more substantial or sit in the corner quietly like the rest of us Shefty.

Also, NFL negotiation tactics 101 says this came from the Raiders, who'd like to isolate the Vikings with the best realistic option and then milk the Vikings for the highest return possible. A leak from the Vikings would do the opposite and suggest the Vikings have identified a half dozen options that they all love oh so much and each just as equally.

Not bad in the grand scheme of things

For sure. I thought it would take a 2nd. Not a lot breaks right for this franchise in the overall scheme of things, but the NFLs over-valuation of draft picks certainly benefited the Vikings today.
