Obviously the move now is to franchise him and see if some poverty franchise will bite and trade a haul for him. If not, you see if he can replicate his regular season success for a year and maybe step up a little more come the postseason. It was his first year as a full time starter in several years, and you can't disregard the season he had.
Even though we all know he'll never win shit, there are plenty of teams that would gladly take what the Vikings just had. Someone will trade for him and pay him, and if not, you ride it out for another year and switch to McCarthy once it's obvious the experiment is over.
