5 remaining free agents the Minnesota Vikings should avoid
By Adam Carlson
The Minnesota Vikings still have some moves they could make in free agency, but there are some players who shouldn’t be on their radar.
Free agency is always a gamble. Teams like the Minnesota Vikings can invest millions of dollars in a player and have that investment blow up in their faces when they end up being a bad fit or not playing up to their past potential.
On the other hand, a play for an underrated free agent that thrives in a new environment can be the kind of move that helps to turn a good team into a contender and makes a general manager look like an absolute genius.
Deciding which players to roll the dice on and which ones to make a play for is a tough call, but there are some indicators that a player might not be the right addition for their team at this particular time.
