| Bursche said: The Vikings already have a killer d-line. Especially with Jared Allen and the remaining DE and DL. Plus their salary cap would be killed if they would go for Taylor. |
Well adding to that strength is sort of the point actually.
As for the salary cap, Taylor isn't going to have a lot of options soon tbh. With him saying he only wants one more year and Miami looking for 1st/2nd round pick he is going to be hard pressed to find someone willing to pay the 8 million he is scheduled to make much less anything more.
The vikings have room now especially with our adjusted cap at ~$135M which puts us ahead of a lot of other teams with the default being $116.7M. We actually have the highest adjusted cap of any team in the league this year, but that's because we know how to play the LTBE system by pushing cap adjustments into the next season.
Its definitely a situation where we pay for the move next season more than right now but it could also be the final piece of the puzzle that allows us to go all the way. Ultimately with the camps started and everything in progress it's too late to make the most out of it and the future sacrifice is enough that the RvR ratio isn't favorable for us. A month ago I was all for the idea...now its just too late...I just keep holding on to the dream of what could have been .../sigh
