LSHMEAB Posted May 29, 2019 Posted May 29, 2019 The 5th round pick is nothing. The fact that he wants a 5 year/50 million dollar deal is a hard no for me. 2

Big Turk Posted May 29, 2019 Posted May 29, 2019 I'm sure plenty of other teams have "discussed" a trade too.
Ethan in Cleveland Posted May 29, 2019 Posted May 29, 2019 Report: any team without a ProBowl TE has discussed a Rudolph trade

whatdrought Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 That’s a good call by the Vikings. If you can keep two goos TE’s, no reason not to.
GunnerBill Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 The Vikings are facing a salary cap crunch. They have guys they can release without taking massive cap hits in 2020 and 2021 but they are going to have to let 4 or 5 good players go. And that is without pointing out that Cousins is only under contract through 2020. So in 2021 they have already committed $175m, have 43 players signed (though the majority of that money is tied up in 10 players) and no Quarterback. 1

That's still a lot of $ for a good TE that hasn't exactly put up great numbers. But sure would have loved him on this team. Here's to hoping Dawson Knox can develop and step right up into that role.

Yeah, there's going to be a bloodletting of sorts. You can bet that Griffen and Linval Joseph will be gone, which will get them under the cap, but they'll have more work to do beyond just those two. They'll probably have to let Reilly Reiff go and re-work Harrison Smith's contract if they want to avoid trading Diggs.

Reiff is an overpaid, overmatched decent RT masquerading as a LT in my view anyway.

C.Biscuit97 Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 I still never got why a contending team wanted to trade a good player.
buffaloaggie Posted June 13, 2019 Posted June 13, 2019 Love the fact that our drafting of Knox contributed to the Patriots scramble for a replacement Tight End for Gronk. For a rare time, the Bills beat them to the punch https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/26963003/pats-pick-another-tight-end-trade-lions
RocCityRoller Posted June 14, 2019 Posted June 14, 2019 I think that Rudolph would be 'ok' here, but pose a problem in New England. I don't need him here, but I don't want him in New England. I'm ok trying Knox, Sweeney and Croom, and holding on for Kroft. I may even IR Croft and see if any TE emerges, and get the best Kroft Buffalo can get in 2020.
