[r8rh8rmike]

From Rotoworld:

ESPN's Adam Schefter confirms that the Seahawks are Minnesota's primary competition for free agent Sidney Rice.

NFL Network's Jason LaCanfora says both teams are "deep in talks" with Rice's representatives. The Vikings aren't going to let their downfield threat go without a strong fight, but the Seahawks are "pushing hard, pending a physical," according to Tom Pelissero of ESPN 1500 Twin Cities.

Thank goodness we have Bartell.

Man i hope he at least eats up all of their cap room if they get him. Bartell can shut him down but that would be another problem to deal with...

Come on Vikings!

I agree here. I honestly think Bartell would bully him. He takes on a big receiver like Fitzgerald and takes him out. He can take out Rice no questions asked, though I do still prefer he goes somewhere else.

Apparently Seattle's goal is to sign every single free agent in the NFL

I'd rather they not get Rice, but with T.Jackson at QB, I'm not all that concerned about the Hawks' passing game.

Peter King on SI.com says he expects the Rams to go after Rice "very, very hard".

Except a worthwhile QB.
