  1. If i should find a reason for this.. he knows the offense
    Can easily be plugged in BUT.. if he gets hurt..dont come and say we didnt had a warning..
    I wouldve liked other options insted.. probably wouldve costed us more but trading for the same player two years in a row is strange.. from what over seen we didnt gave up much
    A swap of conditional 2026 late round picks our 6.th for their 7.th.. not really much and but still the injury concern.. but might learn the offense fast
    Kwesi is only warming up

  2. I agree…a great move by Kwesi A-M, and hopefully there will be more before the deadline. FWIW, I happen to think that Chandler's stats so far have been much more of a function of play-calling & execution by the O-line/TEs. Nevertheless, Akers a good insurance policy re Jones AND Akers will enable KOC to use the 'running game by committee' approach to keep everyone fresh. Furthemore, Akers is a good receiver like Jones & is dangerous in open space, and here's why that matters most: While Chandler has been a good receiver, it appears to me that defences do not fear that part of Chandler's game as much as Jones, and I have noticed that defences become more committed to stopping the run & doubling Vikes WRs when Chandler is in. That affects KOC's options, so, with Akers in there, the Vikes offence will continue to 'be multiple' & force DCs to deal with an impossible number of threats from Darnold, JJ, et al.

  3. Pennywise pound foolish…the Packers Ravens and Eagles went out and got the talent we got two injury prone backs and wasted two picks in two years on the same guy.
