Finally, Significant Offseason NFC North News

[HarveyWallbangers]

Instead of starting a new thread to talk about other teams here is a bump.

So the Vikings d sucked last year as they had no d line but they are getting a lot of reinforcements this year.

Daniel Hunter back from injury.
Mike pierce back from covid opt out
Dalvin Tomlinson free agent pick up.

That is one he'll of an offseason set of additions for a cash strapped team. Their secondary was weak at the beginning of last year but steadily improved through out the season. I think they will be much better this year overall on d, likely top 10.
I also think they will be our competition for the North unless the bears get Wilson some how. Opinions?

They should be better. They were one of the worst run defenses in the NFL last year. Tomlinson will help. Not sure what kind of shape Pierce will be in. They have young CBs. They played a little better towards the end of the year, but not well enough to make me think they have that position fixed. They gave up 33 points to the Bears (in a must win game), 52 points vs. the Saints, and 35 points to the Lions in the last three weeks. Stud Harrison Smith is aging (32). Not sure if they'll get Anthony Harris back. Barr is an old 29. We'll see. it looks like a middle of the road defense. Getting a healthy Hunter back would be huge though. He's a stud.

Read somewhere that Hunter wants some new money.
