Guys I’m scared.
I know it’s the offseason and I might be catastrophizing but I hope this team doesn’t screw this up.
The arguments for waiting to extend him— which I’ll be charitable and say were sound at the time— all got pretty much blown up when the league announced the larger than expected upcoming cap increase.
This is a Ring of Honor, HOF player. You do not trade these guys and if you do, you DEFINITELY don’t do it when other teams know the player wants out, depleting the value.
This post is a silent prayer to the Viking gods— please do whatever you can to extend JJ.
I just get nervous when I see Charley Walters murmuring about trade talks and I see JJ’s jersey on sale at retailers. Smoke yes fire no but still. I’d sit easier in my recliner with no smoke at all.
Stop fiddle fricking around KAM and get this deal done!

You've got a blue player, blue person. You try and keep as many of those as you can."And that hes using PFF to evaluate players?
Good lord
Sigh.
Thought was trying to come up with the term “blue chip” and fumbled it - my bad

JJ wants to know direction of Vikings QB b4 signing
Jeudy stinks. Chase- probably, yes.

i'm guessing you are right on this, assuming it was a color code on a draft board is a bit of a stretch.

It has nothing to do with the draft. Just like OCs color code their play sheets, many GMs color code their roster spreadsheets distinguishing between top players, mid players and replacement-level players. The examples I've seen are blue, green and yellow. Apparently, Kwesi also factors in character and JJ is blue on both, which is no surprise.
This is PFF's color coding system. I would guess teams probably align with them given how prominent they are league wide
