He would count as he’s classified as a free agent. He’s infamous for stating he isn’t responsible for mentoring a young QB. They’ll need to be clear on his role before agreeing to a contract. It’s also possible he’s the contingency if JJM doesn’t start this season.
I guess I can’t say for sure that he would have an impact on the compensatory draft pick as the rules are pretty obscure. I can’t think of any recent examples to compare this to. But the Vikings don’t seem to be in a rush to sign anyone so I’m sure they’re fine waiting until after the draft anyway.
