Re: 2024 NFL Draft

If there is a QB KOC really really likes that he can actually get he should do what it takes, within reason, to get them. It's what the team needs and being able to groom one is a major reason he's the head coach. Time to move on it. If he doesn't have the ability to get that person, it is what it ...

Re: 2024 NFL Draft

There is no team past the Pats at 3 that's going to draft a QB before the Vikings at 11, so there shouldn't be a need to trade up for any pick after 3 in my opinion. I'd also take Nix or Penix before McCarthy at 11. A little bit of chatter about the Jets and Giants taking a qb. Giants seem less lik...

Re: 2024 NFL Draft

Oh I’m gonna have to talk myself in to A LOT to get me excited about the next few years if/WHEN Kwesi trades up to 5 (mortgages the future) to get a QB who was a game manager EVEN at the college level. But I will talk myself in to it… I roll with purple shades on no matter what. If JJM becomes a Vi...

Re: 2024 Free Agents

I have think that they're contemplating moving up or else they wouldn't have gotten the 1st from Houston. That being said, I agree that it would take a king's ransom to get that 2nd pick which I agree that the Vikings would be foolish to try attain. They can get their choice of Maye or Nix or even ...

Re: 2024 Free Agents

If the Vikings do trade up, it would probably be for a Daniels. You have to expect that QB's will be drafted in the top 3. No other team after that has a need fora QB (maybe the Giants), so a guy like Penix, Nix or Hardy at 23 sounds viable. As for 11, I'm also expecting a DToe CB at 11. OL wouldn'...

Re: 2024 Free Agents

We've already added 4 Edge rushers. I can't see us going for 5. I'm expecting DT or CB at 11 if not a QB. If they consider Verse being a much better player than the players obtain via FA they have to take him. Pass rushers are valuable in the NFL. Trade one for a high pick and use that for somethin...

Re: 2024 NFL Draft

Mcarthy is a GAME MANAGER. Imagine if Penix was QB for Michigan, you don’t think Harbaugh would have passed the ball a little more?! If Odunze falls to 11, got him. Then Penix with 23 (NOT a second rate QB). Offense would be crazy for years. Jefferson, Odunze, Addison and Hock… greatest assembly of...

Re: 2024 Free Agents

I'm also old enough to remember the Herschell Walker trade, the Ricky Williams trade and as recently as the Bryce Young trade which now has the Bears with another #1 pick. Someone even mentioned JJ AND picks; what?!!!! I think you missed the point Ok, what's the point I'm missing then? Who is worth...

What would the Vikings be giving up ALLLLLLLLLL of that for? :shock: :shock: :shock: Are 1st and 2nd rounders really that valuable if you don’t have the Priority 1 missing piece to the puzzle?

Re: 2024 Free Agents

I wish that were true but I don't think so. Not because they won't try, but because they won't have a partner. Bears probably wouldn't trade to the Vikings to begin with. Commanders signed Mariota to a 1 year deal and it seems to me they're planning to groom a QB behind him. NE traded away Mac Jone...

Re: 2024 Free Agents

Rumor Vikings have made an offer to Darnold. I think he has been around long enough to demonstrate he's no more than a journeyman. I suppose he could fill in until they find their guy, hopefully with the 11th pick this year, and then let that guy germinate for a few weeks on the bench. https://www....
