sure seems like a lot are abandoning ship............

Let's see:
Kalil...do I even need to say anything?
Locke...stunk much of the time, was decent last season. We can replace him.
Munnerlyn...kinda sad about him leaving, but there is a young'un in the wings.
Charles Johnson...the departure of the invisible receiver.
Cole...again, kinda sad to see him go, but he likely wanted a bigger role.
Ellison...streaky, but we have a successor in place.
Given that this is still pretty early in the FA period, I'm not in panic mode.
OK, now that the dust has settled hereabouts...is 2017 our year?

The only one I care about is Munnerlyn...Another year or 2 from him would've been nice...

I think this points to our QB situation.
Teddy is done, Bradford cant win, and we're not drafting a stud.
Our GM and probably coach will be fired after this season, there's zero stability.
We are the Browns of the NFC. Even the Jaguars are stealing our players.

Most of these guys the Vikings have replacements for or didn't make a strong effort to resign:
Kalil:: Sounds like they made a strong push to re-sign due to a weak LT market, but fell short.
Locke:: A bit a surprise given how much time they invested in him when he was struggling.
Munnerlyn:: They drafted Alexander last year, would have liked to see more from him, but at least he has a year of experience before jumping into that role.
Charles Johnson:: He flashed some potential, but disappeared for long stretches and we have Treadwell waiting for a chance.
Cole:: Decent backup and special teamer, they drafted Kentrell Brothers last year, so a replacement is on the roster.
Ellison:: Nice role player and came back from a bad injury, but we have a similar and cheaper player on the roster in David Morgan.
So yes, we have lost some players, but in most cases we have cheaper and younger options waiting in the wings, which is what good teams are supposed to do. Munnerlyn and Kalil are the two that hurt the most to lose, but there are good options on the roster to replace both.

If we don't resign Patterson....maybe a flyer is taken on Michael Floyd. He could probably be gotten on a cheap deal too after his arrest last year. Not much beyond him out on the market though.
McKie lay dazed on the field until midway through halftime. He walked to the locker room and recovered in time to play in the second half, but the crushing hit -- hence, Purple Crush -- nevertheless energized the Vikings locker room.

I don't see the need to sign a FA wide receiver. It's time to see what Treadwell is made of... you don't draft a guy in the first round and spend money the next season keeping him off the field.
Same thing with Alexander... I could see bringing Newman back on another 1-year deal to give you some options to move him, Alexander, and Waynes at CB2 and the slot. I think we are pretty set at both those spots.
I pretty much agree with this assessment, but I hope the team resigns Patterson. If used properly, I think he brings a lot of versatility to the table.

Yeah, I am starting to think there is a chance they bring Patterson back.

If true......

After the OL, WR is top priority, IMO...
I'd have to put tail-back ahead of WR, but I agree the WR cupboard is not over-brimming with talent or much depth. I would like to CP back, but his ceiling imo is a #3 or #4 guy.
Hell, DL needs some bodies too with Griff and BRob not getting any younger...

This draft just happens to be deep in RB's, TE's & WR's w/ lots of different flavors. Not to mention the CB's & safety's, it sure looks like the depth of this draft lines up well w/ a lot of the Viking's team needs.
