Friend of mine who's a huge MN fan assures me that they're getting a receiver. He doesn't know if they're going via draft or via FA but said he is 95% sure they'll get someone to bolster their WR corps.
Rumor has it MN wants to trade Onterrio Smith for Patrick Surtain.

I wouldn't doubt it one bit myself and I hope that person is Derrick Mason. Now that HE is available, I like him the best of all the FA players available.
mason is good, but he had some problems with butter fingers last year... I really think MM i the biggest playmaker FA (outside moss), but he wants more money than a rational team would willingly invest in a 32 year old... this isn't a great year to be going after a top rated WR with limited cap space and the 9th pick... and coles may not want to be here, but with the slim pickings I'd be surprised if we let him go and sat with the pick we have... kinda turned into a mess over the last week and the 2006 cap picture is going to look worse.
anyways, i think bucs go RB, we get some sort of answer to WR then look at DE then at C and depth at CB and do what we can to keep pierce around.
Mccants thrash and jacobs arent bad WRs, but if thats all we got next year, i think we'll be hurting...
