Vikings sign rookie QB Christian Ponder
Christian Ponder won't be on the radars of many in re-draft fantasy leagues this year, but he's signed, sealed and ready to deliver. Ponder and the Minnesota Vikings agreed to terms on a four-year, $11 million contract Sunday. It's expected that Ponder will spend much of the season holding a clipboard behind Donovan McNabb
. But if the Vikings' season becomes a lost cause, he could see some action late in the year.
Fantasy Analysis:
The year to learn will do Ponder a lot of good, but for him to have anything above mediocre fantasy value, the team will have to add more weapons on the outside for him to work with. Right now, Minnesota's stable of WRs is a sad sight, and I'm not really high on anyone in the Vikings' passing offense this season. McNabb is a clear QB2. Percy Harvin , the team's No. 1 wide receiver right now, is a WR3 with some upside.
