Small school skill positions just don't translate ever. He will only find relative success because of who his quarterback is, and not because of the player he will be. And there is no reason to be worried about a 4th round rookie, either. Adam Thielen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can still get starters and great backups with those picks. We wanted a new era of Vikings football with analytics. So, a master of the new era begins employing these analytics via trades during the draft. Annnd, people are mad. God forbid we wait for all the draft picks and trade pieces to play out. Zero patience. Whats wrong with sticking at the picks and taking BPA? How is that such a forbidden thing here? The Detroit trade was a master move? Seems like you just blindly support whatever he does. Im not gonna do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Osborn is a good slot, but who knows if he is a decent outside guy or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope they hit on this.... 4th round is my cut off personally but it really depends how the board falls and who's where but generally I'd rather trade up than down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have obliterated the Ed Ingram pick, and I think it's the worst pick of the last several drafts. In additoin to hating the Detroit trade... You have zero patience, dude. You are hating to hate. This isn't the old regime. We need to see how it all pans out before we reach a verdict. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it is few and far in between. NDSU, for example, has never put out any talent that a team is scared to go against. Other than Billy Turner, who plays OL.

In Zimmers Offense the depth was fine because we ran mostly 2 WR sets but im assuming we'll see lots more 3 and 4 WR sets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy? Especially since all the players you listed other than Adam, where drafted 20+ years ago lol Edited April 30, 2022 by AP_allday2869 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
