Trades we"d like to see happen at deadline - NFL.( Broncos Acquire Vernon Davis)
The NFL trade deadline passed Tuesday without a move from theVikings.
Minnesota needs help on the offensive line and in the running game. However, the Vikings have just $445,692 of salary-cap room, making any possible deal difficult.
The Vikings made a big move Sept. 3 when they acquired quarterback Sam Bradford from Philadelphia for first- and fourth-round draft choices. They also signed tackle Jake Long as a free agent Oct. 11, and he got his first start in Mondays 20-10 loss at Chicago.
Since the signing of Long, Minnesotas injury-riddled offensive line has continued to struggle. Coach Mike Zimmer, however, has said the Vikings are prepared to go with the players they have.
The Vikings are averaging just 70.3 yards agame on the ground, second-worst in the NFL. Running back Adrian Peterson, though, could be back in December after needing surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his knee in September.
