The Jaguars placed the franchise tag on Robinson for a second time on March 8, 2022,[19] before eventually agreeing to a three-year contract extension worth $54 million on April 27.[20] In Week 15 against the Dallas Cowboys, Robinson suffered a season–ending meniscus injury.[21]
Definitely not Darrisaw but not many are. I think this was a good move and not too expensive pick wise.

I think the good thing is it keeps the line in place without a major shuffle and keeps Risner as a viable option to replace Ingram
Minnesota will also land a 2026 conditional seventh-round pick in the deal in exchange for a 2026 fifth-round selection that can turn into a fourth-round pick based on Robinson's playing time, Pelissero adds.

Agreed. Its a decent move. Just need to win games now.

UPDATE: The #Jaguars have agreed to pay down a portion of Cam Robinson's remaining $9.6M as part of this trade. Efforting to learn the specifics...@spotrac
I like that the pick is in 2026 and not 2025. I also like that if Robinson leaves via free agency this spring, which he almost certainly will, the Vikings could feasibly get a comp pick in 2026 to replace the one they're giving up. Also like that it doesn't reshuffle the line. Brandel stays where he is and Risner can still upgrade Ingram.

I hope so...I really didn't want to give up much (at all) in future draft capital for 10 games. 

I would have bet the farm they would stay with an in-house solution and I would have been wrong.

Now they got themselves a rental QB and a rental LT...I wonder if the 25 squad will look much different from 24? (sarcasm)

I would've been right there with ya. But it sounds like the Vikings didn't want to put their playoff hopes at risk by trusting Quessenberry, or experimenting with Rouse or Brandel at the key LT position. In retrospect, and considering how little they gave up for Robinson, they probably made the right decision. I have to wonder, though, if Robinson starts or even plays against the Colts.

I thought about that too, I would be surprised if he did...Might not be fair to the guy to throw him in with just days to practice.
