The #Vikings are the best situation for a rookie QB in #NFL history, says @Jordan_Reid.
• Star WR1, promising WR2 and a good TE
• One of the top OT duos in the league
• creative play caller

Want to see the craziest stat in #NFL history:
Yards per game for Justin Jefferson
per season:
Rookie: 87.5
Year 2: 95.1
Year 3: 106.4
Year 4: 107.4
Career: 98.3
No one is close. Most dominate receiver after 4 seasons in #NFL history, and it ain’t close
#Skol
#Vikings
The #Angels have an active payroll of $113.5M and an injured payroll of $102.3M.
Compare that to AL contenders:
Astros: $202M / $29M
Rangers: $184.2M / $56.3M
Mariners: $72.7M / $32.8M
Orioles: $46.9M / $14.6M
Blue Jays: $188.2M / $15.4M
Yankees: $186.2M / $76.8M
Red Sox: $99.9M / $56M
Twins: $118.5M / $30.3M
And some of the top NL teams...
Braves: $182M / $8M
Phillies: $214.6M / $16.9M
Brewers: $84.3 / $18.2M
Reds: $47.2M / $10.6M
Dodgers: $150.3M / $51.4M
Giants: $141M / $31M
No one is remotely close to the Angels, in terms of percentage of their payroll that is on the IL. I suppose this is the danger of investing so much of your potential value in so few players. The team is constructed to expect 10+ WAR from Trout and Rendon for the $76M they're paying them and have gotten 3.3 WAR from them so far.
