Wouldn't be the first time the Vikings were out-raced to the podium!

Who made out best on that deal? The Vikings ended up with 6 time pro bowl DT Kevin Williams and we got Byron Leftwich.

Obviously we did.... Byron's trebuchet windup is legendary.

I loved the pick at the time. In fact, I remember jumping for joy. Still wish he didn't get injured.

Jaguarkick is online, time to make the pick. Vikings on the clock

Come on Vikings. Make the pick already.

Done.

Someone pm him

I did that earlier today when he was online

Apologies guys. Give me a sec here.

Vikes go James Daniels. Need to shore up that offensive line to protect the new investment.

---

Good pick.

---

Yep Daniels should have been gone by now that's solid.

---

I thought about Daniels but then noticed they had that guy Elfein at C, and he's a good one.  What would the plan be?

Wow. The Patriots are stunned. They were ready to select Ridley with the 30th pick.

---

Instead they get the RB out of Georgia, Sony Michel

So, do you still want Sony Michel?


knarnn with the Eagles is on the clock if you do.

Daniels is a better OC than any of the OG out there on the board still.  You have an open competition in camp to find the best linemen you have.  Either Daniels or Elflein plays OG.

Eagles on the clock. 1st round went pretty smoothy. Lets keep this thing rolling. If anyone doesnt want to play anymore just say and someone else will take your team.

Because Micheal Bennett is a horrible human being our draft strategy has shifted a bit. Bennett was going to be our 5 tech with ability to play all 4 positions on the line as a chess piece. Now his future is up in the air. But not to fret....we’ve been crossing our fingers hoping the next JJ Watt would fall to our pick and he has.

The Eagles select Taven Bryan, DT/DE, Florida

Not sure about the JJ Watt comp but great pick.  I think Bryan will be a stud.  I do think he would be a better fit at 3-4 end though

A 3-4 end would have similar responsibilities as a 5 tech in a 4-3 defense. See Calais Campbell.

Eagles play mostly wide 9

True, but that could be changing. Hence the Michael Bennett trade. Bryan gives you that same versatility to play inside and out.

Patriots select Sony Michel, RB out of Georgia. He just adds to an already prolific offense.
