But who do you really think is going to push ahead of him among our WRs? Thielen, Diggs, and Wright are the only locks for the roster. Then maybe Stacy Coley is ahead of Treadwell...MAYBE. Yes I am hopeful, but Coley had a reputation for coasting at Miami, so we have to see that he's still committed after a year in the NFL. Even so, that's only 4 guys who may be ahead of Treadwell.
Brandon Zylstra, Cayleb Jones, and Jake Wieneke are all as slow as Treadwell but have less NFL or Vikings experience. Tavarres King is on his 6th team, has been in the NFL 5 years and has only 1 more career catch than Treadwell has caught in 2 years.
Cutting Treadwell would save no money or cap space, so he won't get cut unless there are 6 WRs on the roster who are clearly better than him. I don't see more than 4 who are better, and the Vikings didn't feel a need to draft any WRs to compete with him. He doesn't even turn 23 until next month, either.
Plan on Treadwell being a Viking through 2019. I didn't like picking him either, but they shouldn't cut him just so we can quit regretting the pick. 

I am not sure he is better than some of the others you listed.  Zylstra led the CFL in receiving yards last year which is impressive.

I think the best move the team could make is to trade him to a team instead of cutting him.  But they need to do it before Jume 1st in order to avoid any 2019 cap hit.

Leading the CFL doesn't mean shit,  different rules, different field,  different game with much lower talent level.  Remember how excited people have gotten in the past with CFL studs coming south....Remember how most of those stories have turned out?

Maybe there is something to the kid,  but his CFL stats just say that he can catch a football,  which pretty much anybody can do.

Don't know why you need the profanity but whatever.  You can down play the kids accomplishments all you want.

But many receivers go to the CFL and try to catch on and do not lead the league in receiving yards.

Very few make it to the NFL.

It still is more impressive than Treadwell putting in the record books (for all time) under his name, two full seasons with 21 catches for 215 yards and zero TDs.

To he fair,  1 person a year leads the CFL in receiving,  how many of those guys transition to the nfl?  I honestly don't know,  but I am guessing not many.  I'm not pissing on the kid,  just saying that leading the CFL in anything isnt much of an endorsement for me anymore.  He may come in and actually do something or he might be another Manny arceneaux or what ever the last ones name was.

Didn't Warren Moon play in the CFL before coming to the NFL?  Not saying this guy is any good, but I was trying to recall that one guy that did pretty good in the NFL after the CFL.

@"StickyBun" said: Zylstra is going to suffer from exactly what Treadwell has: the I'm-too-slow-to-get-openitis. The CFL has a much bigger playing surface and the ability to have forward motion before and at the snap of the ball by WRs. Big advantages. 

The WRs are going to be Diggs-Thielen-Wright-Treadwell and more than likely Coley. I wish they'd cut Laquon but that won't happen with the cap hit it would take....I'd rather have Zylstra then Treadwell.

I was with you until your conclusion. If Zylstra won't be able to get open any better than Treadwell, why would you rather have him? With 2 years experience with the Vikings, Treadwell will know his routes better, probably be a better blocker, and know his role well on ST. He's more than 2 years younger than Zylstra, too.
A lot of people seem to be mad at Treadwell, like he tricked the Vikings into picking him in the first round. He didn't. Let's take that emotion out.
If Treadwell was getting starting snaps while Adam Thielen was on the bench, I would be ticked, too. But he's down the depth chart and the team brought in Kendall Wright so they don't even count on Treadwell contributing as #3 WR. I'm sure some on the team still hope he takes a big step forward, but you can't blame them after spending a high draft pick on Treadwell.

Because he's already proven more than Treadwell ever has. They are the same guy. Zylesta at least has caught some passes. He's ahead of Treadwell. He's a better #4...but we are talking #4s here. Going nowhere.

It would be fascinating to see how Treadwell would perform if he decided to go play in the CFL.
Anyone know of any NFL "first round bust" who tried the CFL after washing out of the NFL?

You are comparing CFL production to nfl production?  That's beyond laughable.

What's laughable is Treadwell being drafted in the first round.

no that happened, and that has proven to be sad.   laughable is you thinking that CFL production is remotely comparable to the NFL.  Hell it could be argued that Treadwells college production out weighs anything that Zylestra has done in canada.

At least Zylestra was the #1 WRer in productivity in a professional league last season. It aint the NFL but neither is college. I'm comparing one guy that was at least productive as a WR in a pro league compared to the garbage we've seen from Treadwell, that's what I'm comparing. As I said, they both are probably not roster-worthy but I'd at least give Zylestra a shot if he shows anything over Treadwell.

What makes the cfl a "professional" league because they got paid?  There are likely better paid players in the ncaa....the talent level is certainly higher and at least the rules and the game are pretty similar.  You can dog Treadwell all you want,  but let's not pretend that Zylestra is a better candidate to succeed than Treadwell because of anything he has done to date....hell wasn't MoBo tearing shit up in his pro league?  Should he have been kept over Treadwell?   Certainly not.

Likely if Zylstra shows decent he is kept over one of the other guys as a 5th or 6th receiver.

Mobo? Dude, that makes no sense. The CFL is full of American college players that have played college football. Mobo played in a German league and had never even played high school football. Its a silly comparison. And the CFL has a limited history of providing decent NFL talent....not many, but a few very notable additions. Treadwell stinks out loud. He's a waste of a roster spot. That's what he's proven so far. I've already stated ad nauseam that Treadwell isn't going anywhere because his cap dead money hit is for his full salary this season.

This isnt about Treadwell,  this is about the absuRd comment on the CFL being some sort of comparable barometer of talent.
