"It's unclear what sort of price tag (Greg) Jennings will command if the Packers, indeed, let him walk. Don't put it past Green Bay re-signing (and potentially trading) him, but the team is more likely to look for wideout in the draft. Any team pursuing Jennings must be comfortable with his age (29) and durability. The talent is real. Jennings does everything well and brings locker-room leadership. ... "

IMO, Cruz is a better player than Wallace. I guess it's kind of close, but I don't know why anybody would prefer Wallace.

Evidently it's being reported that the Vikings tried unsuccessfully to get Anquan Boldin on Monday. I'm wondering if that was before or after they traded Percy Harvin?

Now that Harvin is gone and Boldin isn’t coming. The Viking's WR cabinet is rather...well, empty.

It’s imperitive that the Vikings target one or more big-name free agents from a pool that includes Mike Wallace, Greg Jennings, Wes Welker, and Danny Amendola.

If rumors hold that Mike Wallace is Miami bound and Wes Welker stays in New England. The odds will improve that Greg Jennings (who escaped the Franchise Tag deadline of 4 PM today, Monday 11 March 2013)) will be wearing Viking colors next season.

I like Victor Cruz better myself. He's an exciting player.

The Vikings seem commited to the new philosophy of building through the draft. I don't think they'll drop a zillion dollars on a FA WR unless there is a good deal to be had even if that means losing out on the Greg Jennings sweepstakes.

Mike Wallace and Cliff Avril are about to be WAY over paid.

Mike Wallace is one of the happier guys on earth today
IMO Minnesota has been targeting him for a while in trying to dump Percey
Now he has at least two bidders.

I think Jennings is the backup plan for the teams who want Wallace

Also told that Greg Jennings has received interest from the Rams, Colts, Browns, and Bengals, yet is still talking to GB about re-signing.

Going to be funny to see a team spend that AND change his position if they are running a 3-4.

I don't see either Mike Wallace or Greg Jennings being options in Minny.
