The #Panthers are signing former #Vikings DE Stephen Weatherly to a 2-year, $12.5M deal

Vikings are working hard to workout an extension with Everson. Some competition for him though.

Good for former Vikings DE Stephen Weatherly, who will sign w/ Carolina. MIN couldn't keep everyone on D-Line, and this move may signify the team is trying to get deal done with Everson Griffen. Weatherly's position flexibility will serve him well w/ more playing opportunities.

He's the kind of lower-cost, high upside option that I didn't see working out for us. Are you familiar with Jabari Zuniga? He's one of a handful of mid-to-late-round edge guys I think could more than replace what Weatherly gave us.

I'm familiar enough to know how explosive he is. He definitely fits the kind of guys the Vikings like to develop.

The Vikings don't have the cap to match that deal.

Why waste Weatherly's time?

Congrats to Weatherly, He's ridiculously smart kid who has earned this deal. Congrats to him

Is that contract big enough to bring back a Comp pick?

Yes, a 5th or 6th assuming the Vikings don't cancel it out with other additions.
