Still waiting on Kevin Curtis?

According to GM Rick Spielman, the Vikings have put their best foot forward. If "top-of-the-stack" UFA Kevin Curtis signs elsewhere, it won't be because of money. The Vikings have likely had the most lucrative financial offer on the table from the start, which is why Minnesota was first on his list of visits. But Curtis is also an unusually intelligent professional athlete (Wonderlic score of 48!), so he may deem the situation with Philadelphia better for him personally. Either way, he'll be grossly overpaid. He's not the ONLY possible solution for the team at WR, but he's the ONLY one currently on the open market. All other names bandied about have age and/or character issues that do not mesh with what the team is trying to build.
