2014 NFL Draft Discussion Thread - Rounds 4-7

Hoping for a CB and on OG in the 5th

[mondry]

I agree those are/could be needs. The team might be happier about where we are at those positions than the fanbase, for example, Baca at G, The guy from the Eagles at S, Cox, Prater at CB? I don't know...I'd rather not bank on those guys but we'll see what happens. What I do know is that we didn't have a 3rd down back on the roster, and a 3rd down back is important if we want to run Norv Turners offense effectively.

Yeah, very true. The thing is, it's very possible the coaches (and that means all the teams, not just us) have seen a major flaw in Yankey's game / style / motor / passion / whatever that is causing him to fall. Sure on the outside we see a guy with upside being stupidly passed over but the teams probably know something we don't about them.

I still believe OG, CB and even S should had taken front seat over a RB.

David Yankey, OG, Stanford, (HT: 6’5⅝”; WT: 315 lbs)
.....

I don't know what the problem is with him.
It's not like if we were the only team needing help at the position, 11 offensive linemen
have been selected in the 3rd round, including 5 guards, and he's still on the board.....

Skov today?

[PacificNorseWest]

Yeah. Just a great football player period.

Brock Vereen still out there too.

[mondry]

Can't wait to get our Richard Sherman in the 5th round, pro bowl stud here we come!

Didn't see this thread and posted one; sorry...

Anyway, Davonte Freeman's shirt looks like a hospital gown...

The Vikes passed on a pretty decent shot at some decent choices in those positions, I will never understand the running back pick late in the 3rd RD

On NFL network they was saying his former college coach thought he was better suited to play corner back.
Sound like a great athlete with a few possibles for different positions.

[PotGoblin]

wonder if Desir will fall all the way to the 5th

I felt like RB was a big need this year, believe it or not. I don't know who that guy is that they drafted (sounds good), but they definitely needed to address that position.

lol, I said the same thing to my wife.

funny, I said same thing to myself!

[PurpleKoolaid]

Means he isn't happy with the Teddy pick and hes going to bring it up every post. You know, because even JaMarcus Russell was mocked #1.

[PacificNorseWest]

what are the chances the Vikings pull the trigger on a Murray/Mettenberger/McCarron in round 5?

Was just thinking this. They should give it serious thought.

Yeah, sounds familiar It gets pretty annoying when some fans managed/manage to bash Ponder a 1,000 times
