Just about everybody in Vikings management wanted Percy Harvin and his various complaints to find a new home. But one very prominent teammate wasn’t happy to see the wide receiver go to the Seahawks in a trade Monday.

Adrian Peterson, who had said during trade rumors that he didn’t want to see Harvin leave Minnesota, tweeted his thoughts on the move Monday.

The best all around player I ever seen or you'll ever see! Goes to Seattle! I feel like I just got kicked in the stomach. Several times!!!

The Vikings offense, which has plenty of strength in the rushing game with Peterson, is now severely lacking when it comes to the pass. With Christian Ponder already struggling with the Vikings’ limited tools, Minnesota will have some work to do to get the roster up to par before next season.
