Available receivers

Don't be disappointed, fans. There's not much out there.

There's no sure-fire starters, which is why they're probably not on an NFL roster, and the only ones available via trade aren't that overwhelming, either.

Ashley Lelie? Do you want to give up a third-round pick for a guy who topped 1,000 yards only once in four seasons? If that's the case, it doesn't look good that the Vikings let Nate Burleson go. They got a third-round pick for Burleson, and they used that pick to move up and snag rookie Tarvaris Jackson. Besides, Lelie is in the final year of his rookie contract, which means he could be one and done.

While he still hasn't done it in an NFL game, you have to wonder now about the Vikings' decision to trade Hank Baskett to the Philadelphia Eagles. Billy McMullen, whom the Vikings received in return, hasn't distinguished himself, while Baskett is running with the ones.
