SemperFeist Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 One thing is very clear about the pro days that Spielman has gone to in person. They all have a highly rated, athletic offensive lineman. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Three standard deviations away from the average... crazy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't see a huge difference between Christensen and Radunz compared to the higher ranked prospects. Christensen is a straight up bulldozer when run blocking.

SemperFeist Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 I can understand the thought behind trading down and trying to obtain a 2nd round pick, but if Rashawn Slater gets past 8, the Vikings should absolutely make calls to try and trade up to get him. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is something to that, but only if one does not include Sewell into the mix. He is head and shoulders above any other OT in the draft and no one is really close to the same level as he is. Slater is up there really high as well but Sewell is longer and more powerful. Radunz and Christensen could be great pros though no question, but Radunz is gone by the 2nd round and Christensen with this workout could be climbing pretty high as well. I think his teammate Herring on the other side at RT was pretty good as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArcticNorseman Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 Are these pro-day numbers becoming more difficult to trust and the season goes? In looking at OTs, DEs and WRs, it feels like there are 20 guys in each group posting better numbers than past combine numbers, by far. So, all of a sudden, to me anyway, the number of quality guys you'd normally rank in the 15-35 range jumps from 10 or 15 to ~40. Does that mean the Vikes will get 2nd Rd caliber guys in the 4th? Its like the legendary 40s of Vernon Davis, Mark Fields and Clowney are just eh, things of the old days. I'm glad I don't have to dig through tape this year . . . Its like the political races out there . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CriminalMind Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 I hope we either move up from #14 (to get better player)... or down from #14 (hope Jones is available) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoDakViking Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 One trade down in the 1st, then up into the 2nd. 19. Christian Darrisaw OT, 51. Wyatt Davis IOL, 78. Tommy Tremble TE, 90. Dyami Brown WR, 125. Jaylen Twyman IDL, 134. Dayo Odeyingbo EDGE, 157. Richard LeCounte III S, 168. Justin Hilliard LB, 199. Simi Fehoko WR 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simi Fehoko WR That would be great to get both Darrisaw and Wyatt Davis. Would love Tremble and Twyman along with Dayo. LeCounte has star potential and Hilliard is very good also. Dyami I like as well would be a great draft if they could swing all those picks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dc_vikingfan Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 I'm still a firm believer in Ezra is a LT not a guard. So AVT or trading back for Dickerson or Leatherwood. Or waiting in the 2nd or 3rd round for a guard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vike daddy Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 does the Miami/SF draft status trade, and the likelihood four QB's are chosen with the first four picks, affect us in any particular way? does it present an opportunity for us at all? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sad People Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 I still can’t imagine 4 QBs being taken with the first 4 picks. Why this year of all years when it’s considered a down year for the QB position? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dc_vikingfan Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 Yes I believe so. Mac Jones value goes up if 4 QBs are gone in the top 4. So if the Vikings want to trade back they are in a better position for the Steelers, Washington, etc to trade without involving future 1sts. If Mac goes in the top 10 then that's just another skilled player dropping . It's not a huge deal for the Vikings but 4 or 5 QBs going early provides Vikings more flexibility. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikesfan89 Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 I'm pulling for 5qbs, 3Wrs, a TE, and a CB to go in the top 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
