    Good move. Now Brown's can claim Peterson off waivers.

    Hopefully Tate can do SOMETHING in the stretch run, bum has killed me this year. Horrible pick.

    Vikings claimed RB Ben Tate off waivers from the Browns.

    On the surface, it makes sense. The Vikings were hoping to get Adrian Peterson back in the fold this week, but the NFL instead chose to suspend him for the remainder of the season. Minnesota also doesn't seem ready to hand the reins over to Jerick McKinnon, while Matt Asiata has seen his snaps cut since McKinnon came onto the scene. Asiata is also averaging a pitiful 2.08 YPC over the past five games. Look for Tate to take over as the short-yardage back, in addition to splitting reps between the 20s with McKinnon. It may take some time for Tate to learn OC Norv Turner's offense, so we're not rushing to the waiver wire to add Tate, who looked really bad for the Browns. He's merely an RB3 until proven otherwise.

    Doubt it. If Cutler can pass on our squad, I can guarentee you that ARog will be capable.
