Rosenfels to the Vikes?

[dalbuc]

The Vikes might be in the same boat we are where they are looking for 2 QB's. Gus isn't back and Tavaris might be relegated to the deep bench - unless they give Sage a new deal they might be looking at him as quality depth.

The Texans will regret that trade when Porcelain Matt Schaub goes down by Week 5...

I still don't know how that guy got such a big contract.

I agree.

I could see moving him for a decent pick... but for a 4th, i'd keep him around.

The Vikings are fools.  They are a QB away from being a Super Bowl contender, with a solid defense and superior running game already in place.  And they think that Sage Rosenfels, the QB who on multiple occasions single-handedly snatched defeat from the jaws of victory, is the answer?

Who could forget this classic....

Good news for the Vikes

Now who will save the Texans when Matty S. goes down...as he always does with them.

Sage Rosenfels-QB- Texans Feb. 23 - 1:22 pm et
   
 
The Houston Chronicle reports that the Vikings are on the verge of acquiring Sage Rosenfels from the Texans in exchange for an undisclosed draft pick.

This trade was nearly made last year, but Houston balked when the Vikes offered only a third-round choice. The Texans wanted a second-rounder. Rosenfels, 31 in March, would immediately become the favorite to start in Minnesota if the deal is completed. The aggressive passer is considered a strong fit for the West Coast offense coach Brad Childress runs.

Sage Rosenfels-QB- Texans Feb. 23 - 2:26 pm et
   
 
SportsRadio 610 in Houston has joined the Houston Chronicle in reporting that a Sage Rosenfels trade to Minnesota is imminent.

The Texans' website already has information up about the potential trade, though an official announcement can't be made until the Feb. 27 free agency/trading period. The Vikings are set to surrender only a fourth-round pick. Rosenfels is turning 31, but that's still relatively young for a QB. The Vikes will likely also give him an extension. Rosenfels is in a contract year.

I was thinking the exact same thing about the Vikes. They are a good QB away from being a SB team. Trade your 1st and 2nd round picks or do something to get an experienced QB.

Matt Schaub is pretty nice when he sticks around, but I agree they'd be silly to give up on Sage for a 4. Then again, he's got a little Griese in him (Sage)... nice stats, decent physical tools, etc, etc, but he may simply be too erratic for Kubiac. As for the Vikings, I agree with Hugh, with all the talent they've amassed they continue gaffing off the QB position. PFT always bangs on Childress as a coach doomed to mediocrity; if they don't get a real solution to their QB problems after last year I'll have to start agreeing with them.

Bad news for Garcia.

I have always thought we should make a play for Rosenfels.  He is a much better player than Greise and would provide a great competition for Luke for a relatively low cost.
