      They are all grossly overpaid in the grand scheme of things, so that argument holds no water.

        The Vikes got Allen in a trade, not as a FA. Or are you commenting that the Packers haven't signed anyone in hopes to block him?

          "Trade"?? What is a trade?? Like a barter system?? This Allen fella is a trader - isn't that illegal??

          There is only 1 way to acquire a player - The Annual Selection Meeting.

                Yes.

                The Viking organization is organized to make a FA feel needed in Minny. A potential signing is indeed given 'special treatment' by the organization. A PR move that's simply smart.

                        That's a rumor that surely Ted Thompson 'could' put to bed.
