Players Offseason Plans & Future 

Post#1 » by Tha Juice » Wed Jan 5, 2011 12:09 pm

Harvin
In addition to his time in Florida and with the Vikings this offseason, Harvin said he plans to work out sometime with Green Bay Packers cornerback Charles Woodson, who "told me I was one of the best players he ever went against," Harvin said. "I took that as a tremendous honor."

I have no problem with Harvin working with Woodson this offseason. I feel Harvin was one of the very few bright spots on this team this year.

McKinnie
Left tackle Bryant McKinnie said he plans to take off less time than usual before resuming training and hopes to lose about 20 pounds to get back to his college playing weight -- the same goal he set and apparently failed to reach in training camp.

"In the past, I've been having like injuries I just kept to myself and then had to like chill for three weeks," McKinnie said, "and then it ended up turning into like a month-and-a-half. So, this year, I'm not going to do that."

To prove he's serious, McKinnie -- 31 years old and listed at 335 pounds -- said he has hired a personal trainer to travel with him "even if I'm on vacation. Get up and get these workouts in. So, we can do like 'celebrity fit club' if y'all want."

I still think McKinnie can become one of the best tackles in the league. I think him dropping 20 pounds will help him tremendously. I think Loadholt should do the same as well.

Edwards
"We'll see," Edwards said. "I've got to see what's the best situation for me and my family. That's basically what it comes down to."

I doubt Edwards will be back. We have some cheaper options that have filled in nicely this season.

- Bernard Berrian believes he will be back next year. :banghead:
- T-Jack doesn't seem to confident that he will be back. :thumbsup:
