So with that belief, might as well grab Trey and give it a whirl! If it doesn't work out, it was fun to have Trey as a Viking and he got to play for his hometown team while him performing poorly likely secured us a good draft slot or two to replace him. Middle ground scenario he ends up being a solid but not great QB while being cheap for 2 years, and the risk was worth it but just fell short. If it does work out, absolute dream scenario. Nothing would top Trey hoisting the Lombardi for the Vikings. Hell, even him being our franchise QB that brought us to the playoffs often for a decade would be amazing as a Bison/Vikings fan.
Long story short, even the worst option maintains the Vikings status quo with some fun memories along the way. I'm already numb so make it happen!
But do you want the Vikings to spend substantial draft capital to secure a dude who hasn't played much in years? I'm guessing the 49ers would want to recoup fair bit.
