Various Vikings items and explanation on why Vikings 3rd-Rounders are unsigned.
As for why the team’s third-round picks haven’t signed yet:
• The 3rd round is the only round in the draft where there’s actual negotiations over dollars.
• Teams are waiting to see if any player signs for less than 100% of their slot, agents holding firm for 100%— Sean Borman (@SeanBormanNFL) June 27, 2021

This dedicated Vikings fan commemorates the death of her husband.
Today is the 1 yr anniversary of my husband’s Covid-related death. It hasn’t gotten easier but Twitter peeps have been a great source of comfort and distraction. Mike was so funny and we shared love of family, Vikings & Twins. I’m sure he’s drinking a Heineken right now🙂.
