On today's show, we're going to recap the various catastrophes of the Mike Zimmer era on the offensive line. After itemizing what went wrong, it becomes clear where the Vikings' problems are. Plus, some discussion about J.J. Watt and his cryptic tweets. Could they be referring to Minnesota?

Earlier in the week we did a plan to run the whole operation back and fix the cap with just extensions and restructures. Today, we're doing the opposite. Kirk Cousins? Traded. Danielle Hunter? Eric Kendricks? Released. We're slashing the roster down to its foundation and building up from scratch, including a bold offer to acquire Dak Prescott.

We're a little bit removed from the crazy Kirk Cousins trade rumors of early February, so let's chat about that value. Most of the show is a talk with Sam Ekstrom, who has taken the next step in his illustrious career on the Vikings beat. Come hang out!

On today's show, we're going over the QB Annual, and specifically what it said about Kirk Cousins. Much is made about Cousins, and what needs to be made of his surroundings. How does he respond to changes in receiver quality? Scheme? And who is more to blame: The pressure rate, or Kirk's ability to overcome that pressure?

On today's show, we'll swipe left or right on possible cap casualties from other teams. Cap casualties can be good value, since teams may be a little scared to pick up from someone else's discard pile. But if they're the same player they always were, and that team was just in money trouble. Not to mention the compensatory pick value.
