Apparently, they just re-signed Cassel. I'll take Cassel over Vick as a passer, and in Norv Turner's offense, you really just never know, he's always been good with these types of guys. I could see Cassel having a career year.

Is Ricky actually going to spend big this offseason? Not like we couldn't afford it.

the playaction with vick and peterson would be so deadly tho. vick isnt the same guy he was 10 yrs ago but watchin him with the falcons, that run game was dominant because the backside defensive end couldnt crash to the rb for fear vick would keep it and roll out. and peterson is a lot better than warrick dunn lol. i dont see vikes winnin with cassel or freeman or ponder. time to just draft someone ya really like or go and get vick. i dont think theres much risk in a guy like vick anyway, but with him on the field you have a ton of gamebreaker players on offense

I'd be shocked if the Vikings didn't draft a QB in either the 1st or 2nd round this year. Not sure how signing Cassel would change that.

I think Cassel's as good or better for this scheme than Vick, though. He might have had some rough years, but in a decent scheme that utilizes his talents the right way, I think he'll be alright. Turner has a reputation for being able to get the most out of mediocre players, and I could realistically see Matt Cassel having a career year with the offensive talent that we have.

I don't know a lot about football but I been to two Viking games and my favorite player has always been Jared allen. It sucks he is gone now
