    I'll say Fact. I'm not 100% sure of that obviously, but I think they have a good shot at accomplishing those things next season.

    What is your reasoning for this?

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Fact or Fiction- The vikings will pick a WR with the 7th pick in the draft</div>

    Probably fact. They will pick Braylon Edwards if he's available, or Mike Williams. If neither are there, they will simply look for the best player available.

    I think this is probably fact as well. The Vikings need some depth at WR with Moss gone and having the 7th gives them the opportunity to draft a decent one.

    Reasoning!!! I am a bears fan, i dont need reasons to hate Vikes and assume the worst. I do have them however.

    They will start next season with worst front 7 in football. That will prevent any chance of being good on D. Without moss, they will have to change thier whole offense, regardless of who they draft. So culpepper is going to suffer while learning new system. If the keep system he will struggle like he did last year when he didnt have moss. He played like crap except vs NO and GB. NO was worst D in league, and GB's pass defense was horrible all year long.

    :cheesey: :cheesey: :cheesey: :cheesey:

    Great conclusions...you can draw broad conclusions about how Culpepper is going to do without Moss from a period of 5 games (when you conveniently remove two of the 5 games). The reasoning there is amazing. While we are at it, we can say that Culpepper traditionally plays poorly against the Giants with or without Moss, so we'll take that game out as well...

    So do you think the Vikings had the worst front 7 in football last year? If not, what changed? I know Kevin Williams is quite the slacker and never really makes an impact. We only had two players last year that were double digits in sacks.

    I'll repeat what I said earlier...as long as we have the Bears in our division, we won't be last. With the exception of a fluke 13 - 3 season, the NFC north has been reduced to a 3 team division.

    Ughhh, you are going to include lions as part of division despite the fact they havent had playoffs in like 7 years and not include bears who have? I did not say you had worst front 7 in football last year, i said you will start next season with worst front 7.
