I was among those openly pushing for the Vikings to sign former Seattle LB K.J. Wright. Unfortunately, the veteran LB has opted to join Gruden and Mayock in Las Vegas. The initial reports are that he signed for a mere 1-year, $4 million dollars. It’s a bargain for a player of his ability. Even after a decade in the NFL, Wright was recognized as being one of the game’s very best players, coming in at 67th on the Top 100 list.
Not too long ago, Josh Frey wrote about how Minnesota’s LB depth was one of the keys to the season.
