Devante Parker - My number 1 draft target right now. Best high point catch receiver in the draft. Already has chemistry with Teddy.

Make sure that pic of Crabtree shows him on crutches or on the bench, lol. Just a joke... sort of.

Amari Cooper and Trae Waynes would be awesome!

Michael Crabtree - Personally I really hope we don't sign him. he's a "MEDIOCRE receiver" who'll want more money than he's worth. but here's what he would look like in Purple...

Melvin Gordon - My Number 1 ranked running back in the draft this year. If Vikings do end up trading Peterson he'd be an explosive runner who could take over the feature back role from day 1. Reminds me of a mix of somewhere between Jamal Charles and Demarco Murray.

Rahim Moore - Vikings have been in touch with his agent so hopefully we can make something happen. Hard Hitter who can knock the absolute snot out of people. With him and harrison Smith opposing receivers would be scared to catch anything in there vicinity.

Michael Johnson - Just cut by the Bucs, has proven himself an above average starter in Zimmer's system. Likey to be slightly cheaper after a down year in Tampa. Michael Johnson combined with Griffen and Floyd would give us the ability to get after Quarterbacks without losing anything in the run game.

Stevie Johnson - Solid receiver when he was with the Bills. Had an off year in San Francisco which should drop his value. Vikings have talked to his teamate Michael Crabtree but I think Stevie Johnson could be the better receiver for less money if the team thinks we still need help there.

Taylor Mays - Taylor Mays is a Physical freak as far as speed/size/power. The problem is that he's only an average safety. The upside is that he is an awesome special teams player and if he ever does pull together his talent and reaches his potential he could be a force to be reckoned with. His price is also a selling point, he has never made over a mill so i'd guess he gets slightly over that this year. He is friends with Everson Griffen and played for coach Zimmer so I'm guessing he would be interested in joining us.

Trae Waynes - Top ranked corner in the draft. Has the size (6'1") and the speed (4.37 40 Yard Dash). Match his natural ability with Zimmer's talent for coaching the most out of Cornerbacks and you're looking at a star. He can get grabby at times but I think he can be coached out of that. Underated guy for us to Pick at 11 but he could be excellent next to Xavier Rhodes.

Chris Culliver - Another speedy corner with some size. He's coming off his rookie contract which is exactly the type players Spielman usually looks to sign. We are in talks with his agent right now and I think he's be a great addition to the team if we don't plan on taking corner early in the draft. Cornerbacks usually take a few years to develop so It'd be nice if we could bring in Culliver who has 4 seasons under his belt to take over while we develop younger players. He is 26 so he has tons of potential left.
