Ozzy Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 6 hours ago, vike daddy said: hey guys, as Acting GM of the Vikings in our GM Mock Draft forum Last Chance Mock, we could have a pick coming up later today or tonight, if we make a trade. we have the following picks: 1.8 JJ McCarthy 3.74 3.79 4.108 4.109 4.129 5.143 5.157 5.167 6.177 7.230 7.232 the other GM's are drafting in the 20's of the 1st round right now, and we don't have a 2nd round pick. but do we want to trade in to the 2nd round later on? that's where you get to chime in on your views... and that includes @Ozzy. some possible trade values: ** packaging 3.74 and 3.79 would get us up around 2.50 or so ** packaging 3.79 and 4.109 would get us up around 2.63 or so ** packaging 3.79 and 4.109 and 5.157 would get us up around 2.54 or so let me know what you think. Do what you want man, trading up for JJ freaking McCarthy I would never be on board for. And yes kind of stinks does it not to have so few options now, and that is not even considering 2025. Or in the fantasy world the Vikings traded what just two 1st rounders to move up, again not sure that would ever be a reality. Lose out on a lot of value and quality and having to trade back up into the 2nd when you already were in the bottom of the 1st, seems odd especially if a QB would have just fell right to you anyway. But do what you wish I am against it from the start 😁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SemperFeist Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 Bruce Feldman of The Athletic has the Vikings trading up from #11 to #4 and drafting McCarthy. But he also has the Vikings trading up from #23 to #17 to draft Jared Verse. He doesn’t give details for his proposed trades, so I have no idea how he thinks he’d manage that, but I for one would be elated with that outcome. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be quite a feat, although I'd have to imagine they'd have to probably give up the 2026 1st as well to accomplish that in one of those trades.

From a value standpoint I can piece together a trade that could get the team up from 11 to 4 without giving up 23. But in doing that, I don’t know what you’d have left to swing a deal to go from 23 to 17. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vike daddy Posted April 4 Author Share Posted April 4 i've made another trade in the GM Mock Draft forum's Last Chance Mock Draft, with Seattle: MINN trades: 4.129 5.157 5.167 SEA trades: 4.102 i'm pushing our assets forward for potential trading up in to the 2nd and 3rd rounds. in this Mock, the salary cap is not an issue, so the better players you can get, the better. Vikings now have two 3rd round picks and three high 4th round picks to bargain with.... @swede700 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SemperFeist Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 52 minutes ago, PrplChilPill said: I mean, if you believe in verse, why not deal next year's first? Get the guy a year earlier.... Of course. But there’s no way you’re getting up to #4 without using next year’s 1st if you want to keep #23. And that trade up to 4, if it includes next year’s 1st, is also going to cost you at least your two 4th rounders. So, what is he using to move up from 23 to 17? That’s the part I don’t get.
