PurplePTSD works in partnership with Vikings Territory, similarly doing their utmost to offer top-notch coverage of the Minnesota Vikings. As a result, we’re promoting their top 5 articles of the past week in “The P/PTSD Perspective.” Take a peak at some of their best stuff.

The P/PTSD Perspective: July 1st, 2023

1) A Former Viking Should be on Minnesota’s Radar This Summer: No such thing as too many pass rushers, folks. With money to spend, Kwesi Adofo-Mensah may consider one of the talented edge rushers available in free agency. Yannick Ngakoue may fill a role.

2) Vikings Lineman Cited for Multiple Traffic Violations: Hopefully, the issue gets resolved. Oli Udoh has proven to be a strong depth player, but there are things that are more important than football.

3) A (Potential) Vikings Trade Target to Boost the Defense: What can I say? The new GM isn’t shy about pulling off trades. So far, he is up to a total of 15 swaps. A talented defender in Arizona ticks a lot of the boxes for what we know about Minnesota’s priority in a trade.

4) Minnesota’s Corners are Missing an Ever-Present Detail from The Zimmer Era: Notably, the Vikings’ corner room looks completely different from the one that Rick Spielman and Mike Zimmer built. Can the new crew offer the coverage the Vikings need to have a bounce back defense? Brian Flores faces a difficult challenge.

5) Kwesi Adofo-Mensah and The Vikings’ Priority in a Trade: The team is in the middle of a competitive rebuild. That’s a reality that impacts the priorities in a trade. The GM has spoken about these details before, allowing us to make educated guesses about what he’ll do next.

Enjoy the extra reading, Vikings fans.
