Darren Wolfson, jack-of-all-trades sports guy for KSTP and contributor for SKOR North, is one of the most trusted and locked-in sources of sports news in the Twin Cities.

After what we have seen around the NFL so far this offseason, there is no telling what we can and can’t believe about the Vikings.
I’ll admit it. For a long time I thought Anthony Barr sucked. To be honest I never put much thought into it. I just figured he was playing out of position or he wound up not being the player the team thought he was after being drafted. I mean, it always seemed like he was in the right position to make a big play, but he rarely would. ‘He’s a former first-round pick for [Pete’s] sake,’ I’d growl to my buddies. And his multiple Pro Bowl appearances? Flukes, I thought. It’s the Pro Bowl. I’d rather do my laundry than watch the Pro Bowl.

Reports from Denver suggest the Denver Broncos believe Kirk Cousins is destined to sign with the Minnesota Vikings.
