Would you guys go for him considering we're losing Barnett, probably Jones & Jenkins are leaving also. All tho, I'm assuming if we make this happen then we're back to square one and not having space to re-sign the young players in the following years correct?

Correct.

I like him but think the priority is signing our own guys.

I most certainly would not. He isn't exactly the face of the Vikings organization, but he still was a Viking and I don't think I could handle that. It's just the same as Longwell or Sharper going to the Vikings (Favre going to the Vikings was much more extreme than this). It's just not right.

If our cap situation were better I would consider it. But no, as people said above, resigning our own guys is more important.

Fuck Sidney Rice and screw the Vikings. I vote we never sign a player that wasn't on our team (because we were forced to for playing games and stuff šŸ¤ ) that actually stepped foot in that rat-hole of a so-called state. I think that would be an outstanding "rule-of-thumb" going forward...

eg:

Agent: "You know if you sign this deal with the Vikings the Packers will always consider you devoid of any worth, as a matter of policy."

Player: " I don't mind, I'm in it for this big payday, anyway."

If I were you guys, I would be worried about cap space trying to sign Rice. Whomever gets him, whether it be Minny or Seattle (rumor I heard today) will severely overpay him. Not Berrian level, but more than one good/great year is worth considering his durability 'issues'.

I'd love to keep him on my team, but not at the risk of overpaying for him.

He has a lot of talent and I was miffed when the Vikings drafted him as I quite liked his potential. However, he's only once played a full 16 game season and he is almost certainly going to demand more than what he's worth based on what he's shown us. Right now he's somewhat like Javon Walker when he left us. He's had one monster year and is coming off an injury marred season, though Walker's dominant year and injury were greater. He could regain his form or he could flop. The return is just not great enough for the risk.
