Like I said before, I'm more out of the loop than usual when it comes to this year's draft but I just watched Brett Kollnan's breakdown of Phillips and I'm all for taking him at 14.

Still pulling...

This is the least prepared I've been for the draft in several years. I have a few opinions if we pick at 14, other than that I'm going to have to trust you guys for opinions and analysis.

That...

Really wanted to improve the o-line this offseason so we could go BPA at 14, but it appears that Rick just isn't interested, and never will be interested, in spending any meaningful resources towards...

On Twitter I just see AZ fans laughing at the Vikings for trading for him. About what I expected from Rick in addressing the o-line.

Since it's a one year deal, I assume we aren't going to move him to safety, but that might be the move that makes the most sense.

I know we have more pressing needs but I'm dreaming of an offense with Cook, Jefferson, Thielen, and Devonta Smith.

I was hoping the Vikings would take care of the o-line in free agency so we could take someone like Devonta Smith if he fell to 14.

Don't know why I'm surprised every year when the Vikings decide to not spend money on a big FA o-lineman. Now we'll end up with a veteran minimum Brett Jones level pickup. Forget trying to re-sign...

Pierce, Hunter, Kirk for Watson incoming.

I didn't mean that 14.5 sacks isn't great, just trying to point out we're not talking about Michael Strahan here.

This is where the risk the Vikings took signing him to a big deal before he...

I love Danielle Hunter and I'm all for extending him after this season, but now isn't the time. He was going to play last year on this deal with no complaints, then he sat out a year.

I support...

Really? He finally got his shot and I thought he was extraordinarily disappointing. Situational pass rusher at best.

I actually saw him at a nail salon in EP a few weeks ago. Didn't realize it was him at the time cause he had a mask on and was on the way out. Checked out his Instagram after, saw he was in MN, and...

Marquez Stevenson could be another interesting one to look out for.

Stevenson and Darden could both add a new element to the offense and contribute big on special teams.

...

Found a mid-late round guy I really like.

Jaelon Darden WR North Texas

"North Texas wide receiver Jaelon Darden is a dynamic, explosive threat with the football in his...

Kirk and 3 or 4 first and I'm in. Maybe get back a 3rd or 4th. Not trying to give up Hunter but Kirk, Hunter, and a first might be fair, too.

Thanks for the reports Paco. I usually buy Jordan Reid's scouting reports so I'll post some of those later when he puts it out. I know he's part of the draft network now but I think he still does...

Watson-Cook-Jefferson-Thielen-Irv :)

If a top QB falls to us, I say take him but I assume we'll trade back since we don't have a 2nd. Biggest needs seem to be oline (as per usual), dline, and safety. Sounds like a weak (at least near...

Guessing we trade back since we don't have a second.

Been away for a while but here are my thoughts.

Not saying we need to blow everything up, but they need to reevaluate a lot of stuff and not...

If Dalvin can stay healthy, the season might not be completely lost. I still don't trust this defense enough but Zim has been getting the most out of them. Nice to see some improvement in the...

That really sucks. Sorry to hear man. Hopefully the Vikings helped raise your spirit today even if it was just a little.

I hear ya. But can't blame the team or coaches for winning. That's what they're paid to do and I wouldn't want a coach who did it any other way.

Gotta recognize how well the oline played and how the defense turned it around in the second half. Everyone seems to be down on Zimmer but he managed to outcoach LaFleur and got a bunch of rookies...

I haven't been around these parts for a while so not sure if this is sarcasm...
