Mainly referring to guys like Hunter, Jefferson, Darrisaw, Bynum, Cousins. I’m not saying we can’t afford all of them but is it really plausible to keep all of them?

I think the Vikings are in kind of a good situation cap wise going forward, mostly because we’ve shed most of our bad contracts (Harrison Smith is the only one left, really), and a lot of the fallout of those moves will be off the books by 2025.
We’re also in a position where all of the talent due big paydays are coming off of their rookie contracts, so we’re a lot less likely to wind up with a bunch of overpaid declining vets. The only vets that we may want to keep around longer term are Hunter and maybe Cousins.
