Stroud has looked better so far. 0 picks for the season.

Tuten. JFC. Not to be a broken fucking record but god damn it you passed on this for a fucking punt gunner WR5?

Don’t get the angst?
The bulky knee brace on Jones causes me some angst.
Mason missing time causes me angst.
Our O now being predicated on running with pretty flimsy RBs causes me angst.
I got angst enough for the both of us

lol, injuries suck so much. Maybe its just me but it sure seems more problematic early this year than in year's prior (around the league). Nothing can F up a plan more quickly....

Not to mention Claiborne is the only RB under contract in 27

The argument for me isn't so much about depth (a definite need) vs this offense needs a difference maker in the backfield. Someone who makes the DC job that much harder on how to play their Safeties and LB's.

I see what Bijan, Gibbs, Taylor and Walker do for their offenses - it's what would take a KOC offense to a whole nother level

Sadly, I think a lot of Viking nation has forgotten what it's like to have someone of that pedigree in the backfield. Dalvin Cooks’ last game here was in 1/23.

Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!

Why are some fan bitching about RBs?? The Vikings are 12th in rushing yardage and that's with most teams playing 6 games compared to 5. I don't get the angst. Look around the league and see the injuries for RBs, its everywhere. Mason is coming back, AJ has been stellar....where is the team missing drafting a RB higher? Of course in hindsight, a pick here or there might have made some sense.....but in hindsight.
Bolster away if need be, but it better be for lower comp before the trading deadline.

Because we are 5-0, the defense is amazing, Flores is still our DC, the offense is coming around. We are Viking fans, we have to have something to bitch about.
