Favre Un-retires (again)

In what has become a summer time tradition, Brett Favre has un-retired again. This time he joins the Minnesota Vikings. He passed a physical earlier this afternoon and signed on for a chance to lead this very capable team to the Super Bowl.

He's a definite upgrade over Tavaris Jackson and Sage Rosenfels. He is also backed by Adrian Peterson the best running back in the game, and the best back Favre has ever handed off to. The Vikings won their division last season. This move puts them in the same spot in my eyes. They should be able to fight off a very game Bears team and have about 11 wins and a trip to the playoffs. With their strong defense, this could be a team that makes a lot of noise.

Bernard Berrian should see a big rise in his production. 70+receptions 1,100 yards and 10 TD's should be reachable. The other player to see a big bump should be Vishante Shiancoe. He should climb to 50-60 receptions and close to 600-700 yards. Maybe not a starting fantasy tightend, but a solid backup and bye week alternative.
