Randy Moss thinks Laquon Treadwell landed in a good spot
By Dan Zinski
Randy Moss thinks the Minnesota Vikings are a good situation for Laquon Treadwell.
Former Vikings superstar Randy Moss spoke at length with MMQB and came up with some solid nuggets for Viking fans to chew on as we sit and wait for training camp to finally roll around.
Moss for instance had this to say about Vikings rookie WR Laquon Treadwell and his future (via MMQB):
"I like the pickup that the Minnesota Vikings made in Laquon Treadwell because he has a quarterback in Teddy Bridgewater. Sometimes you have to look at the quarterback, because there could be a wide receiver who goes to a team where the quarterback may not be that good in terms of arm strength. And sometimes a quarterback may go to a team where the wide receivers really aren’t that good. But I think when you look at Laquon Treadwell going to Minnesota, that’s a good situation."
By that statement, Moss seems to be saying we shouldn’t be concerned about Teddy Bridgewater’s arm strength. What a relief!
It’s good to hear so much positivity about Laquon Treadwell coming from a player like Moss. And as a matter of fact Moss is not the only former receiver who has endorsed Treadwell. Remember that guy Cris Carter?
Jerry Rice too is on the Treadwell bandwagon. Perhaps then we should not be overly concerned about those stories that came out of OTAs about Treadwell’s issue with focus drops.
We probably should also not concern ourselves too much with Treadwell’s dubious taste in hats.
Next: Keep an eye on Terrell Sinkfield
Treadwell’s Vikings teammates seem to have whole-heartedly embraced him, at least as a target for elaborate pranks.
I hope Moss, Carter, Rice and the others who’ve gotten behind Treadwell are correct in their assessment of his abilities.
