Cousin, Check out this young man. Vikings ERFA Blake Brandel OT. When Darrisaw went down Brandel came in and was perhaps their highest rated OL guy on the Vikes . An under the Radar BB type signing. Small dollars $825. The Vikings are 27th on the CAP list and under water. An offer should win. .i was looking thru the list, and to be quite honest, i had no idea who most of those guys were... I'd need to do some digging to determine who is worth their salt, and who isnt... just dont know enough about the other teams players to give an honest assessment...
At Oregon State:
Team captain as a senior; earned a 93.1 pass-blocking grade (the best in the nation) from Pro Football Focus.
Keeping an ERFA is simple for NFL teams. They just have to extend a qualifying offer to the player, and he is unable to negotiate with another team. A “qualifying offer” is simply a one-year contract at the league minimum salary.
PFF rates him pretty well.
Automatically our best OT.
Speaking of Vikes, would you take a shot at 32 year old Adam Thielen to be our new go to guy? $14mm but look what we paid Agholor. Thielen had 70 catches and 6 TD's in an off year. How much comfort would he be for Jones. Thielen and BB already had a run in so you know BB respects him.
As an official escorted Thielen back toward the Vikings huddle, Belichick told the receiver to “shut the f–k up.” Ah.......the start of a beautiful relationship.
