    Meh not too bad. As you said Dobbs is hopefully Mannions replacement and Hall is the starter.

    Got the 6th back they gave up for Dobbs. Cleveland falls into the “players who are free agents at the end of the year” I was talking about earlier so I’m not against him being traded, a 6th does seem low though as he was ranked very highly I think

    Oh well, they will hopefully get a 3rd maybe 4th comp pick when he walks at the end of the season then. If they aren’t getting offered more than may aswell keep him

    He's playing as well as he ever has really. Certainly since he had all those injuries. 10 sacks already I think? Vikes clearly feel they can still do something this season so his trade value isn't enough to get rid.

    They feel like they can do something every season, and are wrong every season. All they care about is making the playoffs and then losing. The only way they are really going to be a proper contender again is to accept the team needs work and accept that means not making the playoffs for a couple of years

    Hall got clattered trying to run in a TD so Dobbs is now in. Hopefully just temporary.

    Nope, out with concussion. Shame, liked what I saw. Needs to protect himself when running the ball though. Has a history of getting concussed.

    Well, I wasn't expecting him to get sacked, once in the end zone and the other losing the ball. I thought he might actually be half competent.

    Any QB would struggle playing for a new team after 3 days, let alone a QB who has never been a starting calibre one. Learning an NFL offence takes weeks/months not days.
