It's a yute "movement", not necessarily a yute moment. They are going the way of younger, while letting the older players walk away.
But, looking at the list, it appears that they are the 10th youngest team overall, as they are ranked #23 when #1 is the oldest (which is Atlanta at 28.0 years).
The Vikings have the 2nd youngest offense and the 12th oldest defense, which will definitely change when Winfield retires and if they let Brian Robison depart after this coming year. _________________

Agreed, the team has a little bit of a ways to go in terms of roster overhaul with some older players but they have made a lot of strides. You compare where this team was 2 years ago, the difference will be quite noticeable.
I think the Seahawks are #1 or #2. Pretty amazing considering how good they are right now. |

Plus Allen and Williams, 30 and 32 respectively, both play a high percentage of snaps. _________________

might have to do with their coach being such a motivator of college age guys. _________________
