Awwww one fan of an irrelevant franchise went to another board for another irrelevant franchise to complain that Chiefs fans were mean to him for having an awful football take....... that’s adorable.

Come back MikeVike. We’re not done clowning on you.
For the record, Hughes likely had a compression fracture in a cervical vertebrae, probably like C5-6. Sounds scary but most patients have good recoveries. https://vikings61.com/the-prognosis-...r-is-not-good/ He’ll be 18+ months out from the injury by Week 1 and should be healed up.

It's a pick swap our 6th for their 7th right? Ours will be the back of round 6, theirs will be in the first 10 in round 7, this is literally getting Hughes for free. If he works out, great. If not, it cost nothing.

Everyone else agrees with you though. It's a low round flyer on a guy who has first round talent, even if he has has yet to live up to that. He pans out, it's a steal. If he doesn't we lose essentially nothing. |

I think this guy is definitely going to be our slot corner.
The guy ran a 6.70 3 cone. That is an excellent time proving he has the quickness and lateral agility. He’s also a bigger, stronger corner that holds up well against blocks and isn’t afraid to come up and tackle RB’s. I think this move has a chance to be pretty solid. It’s a win/win now that Sneed can go outside. Bring back Breeland and we good

Is that guy really trying to act like going from the 7th to the 6th is significant value?
It's next to nothing. Any possible injury settlement is of much more value. I'm not sure that settlement will be very significant since a case can be made that it happened under the vikings. I'm not sure how that works. |

Meh. I mean it's little draft capital given up so whatever but man... as much as I liked Hughes coming out he's just not that same player, and that neck injury looms like a dark cloud over his career going forward. Any next hit could be it, or worse.
I guess you kind of hope you can squeeze a season of high-level slot play out of him and dump him for what amounts to minimal investment. |

But we gave up about the equivalent of a 7th round pick. If Hughes does play at anything close to "high-level," aren't we getting more out of that pick than we really could expect otherwise?

We could also watch the kid stretchered off the field needing hope to ever walk again on any tackle. Taking that chance has me thinking it might not have been the best idea. It's not that he just cracked the vertebrae and it healed, but that more neck injuries followed last year which shut him down. It points to the reality that everything isn't quite right there. I'm concerned about it. Quite frankly, I'm more surprised that Hughes didn't retire because of it. |

Not long ago, we spent our 6th round pick on Khalil McKenzie whom we drafted as a defensive tackle with the plan to convert him into an offensive guard.
And giving up a 7th for Hughes 'concerns' you? The Israeli/Palestinian conflict concerns me. Covid variants concern me. Mahomes not staying in a protective bubble concerns me. Taking a flier on a guy in exchange for a 7th round pick should not concern any of us.
