The Vikings could use some sacks.

Our first reaction to the Jared Allen possibly coming to the Vikings rumors was “wow – that would be great!”

After looking up his stats and finding a picture of him, our overwhelming reaction was “wait…Jared Allen is white?”

Yep, every website and sports related radio station in the upper Midwest is reporting on the news that Jared Allen could become a Viking.

We would love to see this happen, but question whether the Vikings would actually have the stones to give up their pick at #17 this year and then actually give Allen the raise he so richly deserves.

Allen had 15.5 sacks last year and we think that might be more than the Vikings entire front line had last year combined.

The best part about this deal would be that if the Vikings traded their first round pick, we wouldn’t have to do nearly as much draft research in preparation for the annual Vikings draft day disappointment. And w.e get a guy who wears jersey #69. It's almost a no-brainer

Cold Omaha approves, get this deal done.
