Minnesota Vikings QB Sam Darnold could be a valuable asset in a trade if the Vikings franchise tag him, so our guys Luke Inman, Luke Braun and Sam Ekstrom explore that path. They also dive into potential free agent running backs and first-round draft pick candidates. Ron Johnson joins the show as well to weigh in.

Love that it’s not even possible to franchise Darnold, it was always a bad idea but the fact it literally can’t happen is hilarious omg

My preseason Darnold for CPOTY ticket is still alive!
Ron always seems so uninterested in what the guys are talking about. I think he's just reading a book during the show. Just an observation.
Please don't bring back Darnold!
Cmon guys what about Ty Johnson. I would take him over any of those guys you mentioned straight up!
"Let's assume Luke Braun's wrong"
Usually a good policy.
franchise tag start 2/18/25 to 3/4/25.
Ron has done his home work. I wished you would of asked Ron about franchising Darnold because luke braun is wrong.
Morrison has a bad hip that is scary!
I love Luke Braun but Luke, you have to stop interrupting!
Good podcast, guys!
I think you guys are going to be surprised how much the Vikings are able to get for Sam in a tag + trade. Someone will get super desperate. My official guess is a 2nd and a 4th. Maybe a 2nd and a 5th-6th if it’s a high 2nd.
Zero chance Luke Braun is right about the “contract void date” thing. You think Sam has the single most unique contract in the NFL??????
Get real.
