Mike Wallace to Minnesota, effect on Charles Johnson

[Cameron Giles]

Vikings just released Jennings. Parker to Vikings? How do people feel this changes the Charles Johnson outlook?

Where does he play? I feel like Wallace and Johnson are the outside receivers and Patterson in the slot? Vikings might need an RB at this rate or potentially another pass rusher.

More targets for Wallace.

Might even see Wright in the slot if CP continue to suck.

i think wallace will take pressure off of charles.. I think the better defensive CB for focus on wallace now of course. Teddy loves hit boy Charles Johnson and I do not see this a negative thing at all..

After Johnson had been fully integrated into the offense, his Week 13-17 (5 games) his per game average was 54 yards/0.2 TDs.

I wouldn't really say he "loves hitting his boy."

"Loves going to his boy" would be more accurate. CJ was targeted 47 times in his last 7 games, nearly 7 targets a game, and according to sportingcharts.com, Johnson had 0 drops last season (not sure I believe that though). Teddy looked his way frequently, they just weren't able to connect as much as they had hoped.

This, Johnson as a top 70 ADP guy is an overvalue to me, there are a number of guys going later that I'd rather have including Wallace ironically.

Glad I was able to turn him and Newton into Allen and two firsts when I did.

It seems like the Vikings like Wright as a 3, I don't see them drafting a WR. And they're not giving up on CP either, he'll probably come in on 4 wide sets.

Everybody is just wishing for a a WR.

[failblazer]

Glad I sold him when I did.

Wallace just wanted to get paid. I bet since he has received his $$$ he has been a locker room cancer as witnessed at the end of last season. I bet he is Percy Harvined fairly early in the season. The real threat to Charles Johnson's work load will be what they get out of the draft.

Probably, but they also don't seem like a team that is going to throw a lot period, so that is going to cap his upside.

Exactly...if they somehow end up with White or get Parker, who renews his chemistry with Teddy, Johnson will become the #2 target which will not equate to many targets.

[DLFiend]

If they draft a WR early, Johnson will find himself 3rd on the depth chart, not 2nd. Wallace is the #1 here. Vikings wanted him when he hit FA 2 years ago. Fits Norv's system perfectly.

Johnson is the definition of JAG.

What does that make Hunter then

I don't think you watched him last year.
