Stupid rumour. Go Vikes anybody who believes a bit of this rumour doesnt know the vikings. or football for that matter. even the 5th wideout on the vikings roster has more drive and ability than rogers. they may work him out but i personally would be shocked if he made the 53 man roster.

The first I saw of this was at VikingUpdate (http://min.scout.com/2/762501.html). They said: "This tidbit likely would appear elsewhere if it could be confirmed..." But why confirm, really? In PFT-land, the Vikes will have LeCharles Bentley and Charles Rogers any day now. That’s what we love about ya, PFT. The first I saw of this was at VikingUpdate (http://min.scout.com/2/762501.html).

I loved it when he made a catch for a two yard gain and acted like he just made the OT winning catch in the Super Bowl!!!

The Moss trade (while the actual trade had horrendous results) actually got the Vikings going in a different/the right direction! The money we could've been paying him instead went to Defensive players. With Moss still here I doubt our Defense is anywhere near as good as it is now and I'm pretty sure you could subtract "Purple Jesus" (Adrian Peterson) from the Vikings as I'm sure our record and need for defense with Moss still here would not have allowed us to draft him. All in all I think the Moss trade was an EXCELLENT trade when ALL things are considered! ...Also, I TRULY believe Moss received a bad rap with the media!

You bring a guy in check his stats. check his knowlege of the west coast offense. And see if he can pass a physical. I think his ability to block and catch the ball would be more important that being able to strech the field. We had that in Williamson. He just could not catch the ball. Plus being from the same division it would allow us to review his knowlege of his former team. Then whos to say he would make it past training camp. Rice will make the team this year Bobby Wade, And Berrian. Not to mention Aundre Allison could break the lineup this year. Hes got hands hes got speed. and performed excellent on special teams last year. It just a matter of him running the right route and blocking down field. If roger is brought in he would be competing for the fourth receiver spot with allison. at this point its going to be allisons to loose. I think it would be stupid to not look at rogers. But looking and signing are far appart. Well first all I have to say is its just a work out. You bring a guy in check his stats. check his knowlege of the west coast offense.

At best, they overpay decent players (Berrian, Sharper) and at worst they hire bad coaches (talk about Tarvaris as one of the worst QBs all you want, but Childress is absolutely one of the worst HCs.) So it doesn't surprise me that they'd at least take a look at Rogers when no one else in the NFL is interested.

Zygi Wilf has said he would never have made that trade. Red McBastard didn’t want to pay Randy - that’s why he was traded. Zygi Wilf has said he would never have made that trade.

As a Viking fan, I hope so. I agree they did upgrade the WR position, this iff season, and Rice is definitely a promising player. None the less, WR is a position you cant have too many game changers at. I wish him, and the team the best in 2008. GO VIKINGS!!!!! Who knows….it could work out. As a Viking fan, I hope so.
