A low-risk practice squad flier on an unproven receiver with elite athletic traits. Headlines highlight his sprinter speed, suggesting Vikings value his raw athleticism over proven production. The key signal is his practice squad designation — this is a developmental addition, not a roster upgrade. Fans are intrigued by the speed angle but tempered expectations given his obscurity. Davis remains a long shot to contribute meaningfully unless injuries force a promotion.

This signing grades out as a significant overpay for the Minnesota Vikings — the team is paying more than the on-field production currently warrants. Joaquin's on-field performance ranks in the bottom quartile among NFL WRs, grading him as an unproven at the position. His $885K average annual value ranks as bargain money for the WR market. The concern here is the gap between production and cost — unproven output at bargain money means the team is paying a premium above the player's on-field value. Joaquin is squarely in his prime, which adds to the deal's upside — the team should get multiple productive seasons out of this contract.
