Where are we with one of these rookie WR’s. It’s hard to depend on Diggs and Thielen to catch every ball. Playmakers are irrelevant if the QB can't even finish dropping back before getting hit. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playmakers are relevant if he can get them the ball. There was plenty of times there was no separation and Cousins had to just eat it. 3 step drops where he had nowhere to go. Can our line be improved? Sure. Will it? Most likely, but trying to just go after another interior lineman in round 1 isn’t going to fix that. Round 1 pick should be a difference maker. Outside of Nelson going to the Colts (not sure if he was even truly all that much of a difference maker) name another Round 1 player that made an impact year 1 that can help a team to the Super Bowl.

NoDakViking Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 I think Biadasz in round 1 would be an upgrade at guard and could double as insurance if Bradbury doesn't dvelop. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelKing728 Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 We still don't know our draft pick position, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KeithVikings28 Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 Mekhi Becton*, OT, Louisville 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Becton could easily go to New England before us. Might have to settle on Josh Jones who would be over drafted at that spot and might not be a scheme fit but have to get someone. Still what does one do with Reiff then is a massive issue I feel, but OT there are options, OG there are not as many high level options but some quality 2nd round options. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think at this point we trade up to take a OT if need be. We need to build the interiors and bring in freak athletes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RpMc Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 Sitting in an interesting spot at pick #25.... might be an attractive trade spot for teams that want to come up and grab a quarterback Detroit, Los Angeles Chargers, Carolina, Jacksonville all have top ten picks and potential interest in a QBOTF. Indianapolis also has an extra second round pick, but that would be a hefty move down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gopherwrestler Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 If KJ Hamler is somehow around in the mid 2. (Personally I think he’s a top 20 guy) I’m instantly jumping up to get him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SemperFeist Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 I will pound the table for Jordan Love at 25. Or Jalen Hurts at 57. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is why they have no OGs on the roster they drafted worth a damn. Because like you, the FO doesn't value OGs. Which is how you end up with awful OG play.
