With Latavius in, is Adrian out? link"In theory, he could simply become the new Matt Asiata in the Vikings offense, with Peterson back as the starter ....." Guess I am not the only one who thought that

The arrival of Latavius Murray in Minnesota signals a shift in the Vikings' offense: link

Latavius Murray's deal with Minnesota is for three years, but can be voided after one season. Possible shot at free agency again in 2018.

Feels like a situation where Vikings & Peterson were both too stubborn to realize they needed each other and were better off together.
I am guessing this is why Murray was there two full days....

I'm wondering what the numbers are for Murray because that could be somewhat telling how the Viking's plan to use him...is he just an Asiata replacement, or is Murray the new "bell cow" RB in Minnesota, taking over for Peterson? The consensus out there seems that this move signals the end of Peterson in Minnesota.
I've been hoping for a RB depth chart of Murray, McKinnon, 2017 Drafted Rookie (Mixon or a similar playmaker) & CJ Ham for this entire offseason. The one thing Murray doesn't quite have is any big-time, home-run, playmaking ability. If he gets to the 2nd level, it may be possible he takes it to the house (and I know there are highlight clips on Youtube of him bursting through holes, etc), but more than likely it's a nice gain, but not a game-changer in the style of the "old" Peterson or a similar play-maker back there that has the ability to take it all the way. That's one of the big reasons I really like Mixon - he gives this offense (which, at the moment is somewhat devoid of home-run playmakers) a different option that defenses will hopefully have to respect.

Difficult to imagine a worse fit for Latavius Murray's skill set than the #Vikings and their horrible offensive line.
