from the st. paul press:

The Vikings have no interest at this time in linebacker and former Eden Prairie High School star Jay Foreman, who was released Monday by Houston.

Ouch bad makes news... hopefully Houston releases Jamie Sharper and we sign him.

it might not be bad news at all. maybe the vikes want a better lb. like dj or merriman.

I think they may sign Sharper, Foreman, or Cowart but they'll wait until after the draft.

Who the F is Jay Foreman? Exactly. Who cares if we don't want him? I thought we were done picking up trash. Wait, we did sign Morten and D. Bennett last year. But that was last year, right?

underpublicized players dont make them trash, Foreman had 137 and 136 tackles before he was hurt last year. Not exactly a poor amount. which was in the top ten in tackles both times. in that time period the vikings have only had one player get over 100 tackles. greg biekert had 101. So before you bash a player do a little research.

Problem his to get that many tackles, you have to be playing for a horrible horrible defense and I mean by that, much worst than what we had. I don't know the guy so I won't bash him. Still I don't know if we really do need more linebacker.
