He's got a bunch of suitors. Not sure how the Allen signing effects Minnesota's financial competitiveness with other offers to him. I felt better about the potential of it yesterday than I do today.

Definitely need to see the details on the last year deals to know if it’s even possible. I’m thinking he’s priced out of what we can offer.

According to Albert Breer, the Vikings beat out a strong market of teams to sign G Will Fries on Tuesday.

Breer says the Colts, Patriots, Giants, Seahawks and Cardinals were all bidding for Fries.

Someone mentioned this in another thread, but I think this is a case where the team, staff, culture and MN were more alluring than the other franchises. Getting the Colts C might have been huge in this get too.

So now they have 4 of their 5 starting OL who were/are PB's....Thats crazy

Also love the fact that Kelly and Fries already have a measure of continuity. I've never played OL before, but I've been told that knowing the strengths, weaknesses and tendencies of the guy next to you is a pretty big deal.

OL - Leverage, Communication & Continuity are huge.

Our coaches trained with Scott Peters - Formerly OL coach for Browns, I think he's now with the Patriots (Last season)

If you can leverage under your opponents pads, change spine angle, or re-direct your going to win your matchups.
