The Facts:
The Vikings appear willing to let Robinson hit the open market Monday, knowing that with an NFL-best $24 million in salary cap space and the right to match any offer he receives, they are in a good spot. Robinson's agent, Alvin Keels, said Saturday night that talks with the Vikings are at a "standstill" but admitted that with the right to match, "it takes away the [Vikings'] urgency."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
With free agency slated to begin at 12:01 EST tonight -- assuming a new labor agreement isn't reached or another extension granted -- Keels expects to talk to Vikings officials today and start fielding calls from interested teams late tonight if nothing happens. In addition to putting his off-field problems behind him, Robinson finished with 22 receptions for 347 yards and a touchdown. He also earned a Pro Bowl berth as a return specialist.
