Ferguson

[LABS4ME]

Can't believe none of the Vike's faithful are bantering about the real possibility of picking up the retread, er-umm I mean, the respected receiver Ferguson. He's been a huge disappointment in Green Bay and couldn't flourish under Farve... how's he gonna play under Jackson? Also the last 3 years have been injury plagued for him...

What's everyone elses thoughts? Will he sign here or with the Texans... If here, who are the Vikes gonna cut? Will it have an impact or be a flop?

I'm thinking he will sign with the Vikes... he'll have an outstanding game against Green Bay at the Dome and be so-so the rest of the season.

Good Luck!

He will probably sign with the vikes it sounds, since they are promising him playing time. They will cut someone that wouldn't make a difference anyways and he will be average at best. I didn't mind getting Longwell and Sharper, but this is a stretch.

[eyehunter]

I agree, Longwell and Sharper have been nice additions to the team. If you look at what we have at receiver now, one more to prove himself can't hurt.....

I just read that it is most likely a done deal, he is even planning on being at practice today yet.

It was reported on Kfan that he was signed . Getting to be an aweful lot of ex-Packers on the Vikes . I don't remember him as anything but an average or below WR and I wonder who we will have to cut to make room .

[Born2Fish]

Yes he is signed. Might as well start calling us the Minnesota Packers....

The sad thing is he has 3 more TD receptions in his career than the other 11 receivers on the team have COMBINED!!

He's got a whopping 12 TD receptions. The other 11 guys have a grand total of 9.......

Maybe he just needs a decent QB throwing to him???

Sorry, I don't mean to knock Lord Favre, but as a die hard Viking fan, I just had to put that little jab in.

[LABS4ME]

Ahhhh that's right... the Vike's have a REEEAALLL QB!

Jab or not against Farve, Ferguson is a major under achiever! I don't look for that to change. I think as usual with him, the Vikes will get snapshots of his talent, but never the whole picture.

Good Luck!

The Vike's have a reeeeaaallll UN-PROVEN QB. Give the guy a chance, He's only had 2 regular season starts and those were as a rookie. He hasn't even had a chance to show us what he has, may be just what the doctor ordered.

[walleyes12]

Its a good pick up in my opinion, What better WR do we have?? Wade??, Williamson?? Give him a shot it can't hurt any.

[bgreen82]

i agree. 99.9% of the people on here probably havent even heard of the guy they will release to make the room for him.

Robert had 12 td's in six years with the packers.

Longwell missed a 35 yeard chip shot the other night.

Traveris(sp) fumbled on the first snap.

Sharper looks like he's back.

Good luck!

[Wade Joseph]

All I am gonna say is.......I am glad I am a Packer fan. Good luck with him.

[bottomdweller]

Well he surely wont be any worse than what we had.. Would not be too proud to be a pack fan either. I think both will be fighting for the bottom.
