According to ESPN's Courtney Cronin, the Vikings have come to an agreement to restructure Murray's contract before $5.15 million of his $6.35 million cap hit became guaranteed on Friday. This means they will be keeping them around for the 2018 season.

Good, we're short on RBs, and Latavius is a good one to have around.

I honestly think this would have happened regardless. It was said at the time he was signed that they could end up either restructuring or cutting him after the first year and that the deal was set up for that. I'm glad Latavius wants to stay, though. He's a good guy and he played well this past season. Glad he's still a Viking :)

I wonder what Courtney means by “restructure.”

It is good news.  I wonder if Sendejo (sp) is gone if the Honey Badger wants to sign here too?

Good, glad to have LM back...I suspect we'll take a tailback this draft, but a little less urgency then before.

So who was the other person RS was meeting with this evening?  We know Richardson, would the other have been LM to restructure his contract?

Not sure.  Mathieu might be the slot CB too.  I'm sure he will play safety sometimes, but he could be mainly replacing Newman.

Don't know? Didn't he tear an ACL in one knee in '13 and the other knee in '15?

Good news He's better than all of the free agents on the market. I think we'll still draft one though.

Mack Brown will be the 3rd string RB, not Sankey I believe. They like Brown.
