BREAKING: JJ likely traded Sam back to Minnesota - DH11 - 01-20-2025
Interesting
If we could sucker a team to give us a first round pick for JJ McCarthy, I would jump at it and I’m assuming the Vikings would too. The Vikings brass is obviously putting this out there to gauge the interest in JJ McCarthy…..

It literally is like banging my head against a brick wall. ONE guys says something, a guy I have never even heard of at that.

so you come in touting the journeyman back up qb bust, have said nothing flattering about the team in general, but you want to pretend you arent a troll? there is taking a contrarian position to foster more dialogue... fuck I have pretty much perfected it, but you are painting yourself into a corner here.

Maybe even just trade him for a 2nd or 3rd round pick. JJ hasn't done jack for the Vikings....

The name of the thread says it all. Like it's fact and it isn't. I could see if it came from a reputable source, but it came from a nobody. It's someone's thought. Nothing about that is "News"

I wasn't responding to the click bait article. They do that this time of year to get some attention. I was responding to your comment:
"If we could sucker a team to give us a first round pick for JJ McCarthy, I would jump at it and I’m assuming the Vikings would too."
If we could sucker a team in a QB weak draft class into giving us less than we gave up for McCarthy in the first place, you would jump right on it. When you stake an indefensible position just to get a reaction...that's called trolling.

Is starting the same dumb topic several times a week and haranguing everyone about it a new thing around here or did I miss something?

Benjamin Solak, formerly of The Draft Network and the Ringer. Now with SI, a group who at one time was considered a reputable source of sports news, but who recently discovered how much money there is to be made in the outrage economy. Solak is good at that.
Some of Solak's previous takes: Said the Eagles were going to take Justin Fields at #6 overall because they didn't like Jalen Hurts, whom they drafted the year before, and because Fields was "just too talented to pass up." He still believes in Fields, mocking the Vikings last spring for taking Darnold instead of Fields. Also called Joe Burrow a system QB and neglected to rank Josh Allen inside his top 100. He went 7th overall.
He's makes his money by being contrarian, extreme and defensive, which is a good business model in today's media. If only he were right once in a while.
