Hey, everybody, welcome to another episode of Purple Insider presented by Fandul.

Matthew Collar here.

And a lot of you have reached out over the last couple of days and said, hey, have you seen this website called stick to the model.com where you can put yourself in the general

manager's seat redo contracts, sign free agents, go to the draft, make trades.

I was like, okay, well, that sounds like it's right up my alley.

And indeed it is.

So in this episode, what we're going to do is completely rebuild the Minnesota Vikings roster and go through

the 2026 off season and see where we end up. It gives you a grade at the end. So I'm curious about

what the website thinks of my offseason plan. I also have to say that because of the way

the site is worked out, you can't exactly tell

the Arizona Cardinals to take 90% of Kyla Murray's salary or work out a trade for Derek

Carr who's retired.

So what we're going to do is we're going to look at the rest of the roster first and then

see where we're at with the salary cap situation and with the roster

and then talk about maybe who the best quarterback option would potentially be. So let's jump

right into it. And the first step that we're going to have to take, you guessed it, is to create

some cap space. Now, this is a rough outline, I'm sure, with this website because they don't have every single

detail of every single contract, but we're going to work through it and see some of the

different levers that the Vikings can pull and maybe potentially how much cap space

they might be able to create.

So that's going to begin with going through contracts and restructuring certain ones,

cutting players, and seeing what we can do here.
