If Vedvik takes both kicking spots, all the skill position guys that took turns holding makes more sense now...would love to keep an extra OLineman...

New #Vikings specialist Kaare Vedvik is en route to Minnesota now and is expected to be made available to reporters tomorrow. Both Dan Bailey and Matt Wile were escorted off the practice field today and not made available to media.

"Escorted off the field".....

One might even go so far as to say...."kicked" off the field

"How was your day honey?"

Hmm....That's the FOURTH draft pick the Vikings have used on Kickers/Punters since 2013. It's the FIFTH draft pick utilized on ST only players during that same time frame, including this years long snapper (actually the 9th draft pick utilized, if you include ol" Cordarelle and the FOUR draft picks used on him to be a KR).

I'm not sure, but I'm guessing that ridiculous expenditure of draft picks on ST-Only players in a 6 year span is a NFL record....certainly in the modern era. SMH. But hey, at least they have 1 miracle home playoff win to show for it....so they got THAT going for them. B)

I'm intrigued by this guy, but I'm kind of tired of the kicking carousel (both at K and P). It'd be nice to settle on a guy and let him get comfortable. Hopefully this is it.

Sigh. If I'm a kicker, I'm staying far away from the Vikings. Its the kiss of death to sign with them since Zimmer has been coach.

At least four teams have called the Ravens to inquire about trading for kicker Kaare Vedvik, with at least two of those calls coming from NFC North teams, per a league source. Ravens don’t have to do anything in the short term, but will deal the kicker at some point this summer.

Honestly, I applaud the Vikes for this move.

Is Dan Bailey the answer? Probably not. Also, we prevented the Bears from improving. Win win.

I applaud it too...They really couldn't stand pat and made an aggressive move. Bailey was clearly struggling and to your point, it kept the Bears from improving for now.

If this guy wins us even one game with a clutch kick, it'll be worth it. 16 games with each one meaning so damn much for post season seedings.

Ending this season with home games against the Cheeze and Bears is gonna be crazy!
