Final words of the season for the Viks...

I suppose I should mention the Vikings and their slow, painful, demise in 2010.  Goodbye Brad Childress and mass props to former Defensive Coordinator Lezlie Frazier on attaining the Head Coaching position.  He's a quality guy, and I look forward to seeing what his vision of the Vikings should be.  There are still mass questions regarding this team.  From the impending lockout, to the 20-plus free agents, this team will look very different next year.  I'll say this:  Pecking order as follows:  Sign WR Sidney Rice (he's great, but also hurt for 3 of his 4 years here....transition him and sign him to a 1-year deal),...sign K Ryan Longwell (max-consistency),...sign LB Chad Greenway to a multi-year deal.  That done,...the big question mark regards the draft.  Most "experts are saying the Vikings should go after a QB with the 12th pick, but I'm not so sure.  I'm very intrigued with QB Joe Webb.  He didn't come in a dominate or anything, but led a spirated win, late in the year, over a playoff-bound Eagles team, and the one thing I noticed, is that he didn't look overmatched.  He's got all the physical tools, but he didn't look like he was in over his head, like Tarvaris Jackson (who I've supported) did.  I'm not sure if this is the year to go after a Jake Locker (or whoever) because we could really use some help elsewhere, and maybe we should use Webb as our "developmental" quarterback?  Time will tell.....
