Was that receiver actually trying to block? Despicable. The Vikings should lose the franchise after what they have put on the field this year. Watching one of their worthless players suck at life and lead to a horrific injury to one of their best is kind of the cherry on top of this crap cake.
 
I've been saying ever since he got injured initially, that was a great opportunity to just shut him down for the season. Not only to prevent injury, but because NFL RBs have a certain number of carries in their career and there was no reason not to save those carries. Stupid to bang him against NFL defenses for no reason.
 
They think torn ACL for sure but the rest of the ligiments will be interesting to see if any are torn. Could be as bad a Cullpepers
 
As a Bears fan...I still say ouch. That sucks. Never like seeing any players go out like that. I do wish him a full recovery. One of the best players in the league when he's healthy.
 
I think now the Vikes trade down and pick Richardson.
The Vikes are in lots of trouble anyway, but are going to be even more in trouble if they don't end up with a deep threat WR some how. Either that be free agents or a 1st round draft pick. They need a deep threat down the field.

Free agency is the better course, IMO. It's a little easier for a rookie running back than for rookie wide receivers. Obviously there are exceptions (Julio Jones and A.J. Green being the most obvious), but WR is among the toughest positions to judge talent for. It's right there with DT in terms of being a total crapshoot.

Get someone more proven in free agency at WR and get your RB insurance with Richardson if possible.
