Kwesi... quiet, but deadly. Silent, but deadly! 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vike daddy Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 did someone earlier this week write that Flores is a good college talent evaluator also? that would be a big plus: After striking gold in the 2015 draft, selecting future Pro Bowlers Eric Kendricks and Danielle Hunter, Minnesota hasn’t drafted a single defensive Pro Bowler since. Of 75 defensive players drafted since 2016, Cam Bynum is the only player who was a first-string starter entering the 2022 season. No starting caliber players have emerged from the 2016 to 2019 draft classes and received second contracts in Minnesota. https://heavy.com/sports/minnesota-vikings/ejiro-evero-nfl-news-brian-flores/?fbclid=IwAR1phsF7K5Tc7pcCDvp0-DRCrx8cT119Hpql9X2g_XYj8wXokxJcP1lc-tg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They haven't been developing much talent on defense 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SemperFeist Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 I’d be interested to hear if Flores was one of the scouts who’s scouted O’Connell for New England. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SemperFeist Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 (edited) If you’re a Harrison Smith fan, this is fantastic news. Almost guaranteed he’ll be back. If you’re a Patrick Peterson fan, you may need to prepare yourself for disappointment. But I’m very curious what this could mean for Za’Darius Smith. With Hunternon one side, does Z fit what Flores looks for on the opposite side? Edited February 7 by SemperFeist 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless it’s a very team friendly Think you may have to roll with Wonnum and Jones. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
