2014 NFL Draft Discussion Thread - Round 1

I would have been fine with Barr had we not just sunk 9 mil a year into Griffen....

Thanks Vikings. Im dissapointed again

[Demi]

Zimmer will find a use for him. Like how he used James Harrison with Cinci? Simmer down now!

[King James]

Damn, how do you pass over CJ Moseley for Anthony Barr? I knew the Vikings were going to #### up again and they prove me right again.

NFL.com had Barr with 6th overall grade. Lotta negativity around here! Best player at a position of desperate need. Why the hate?

The irony: Demi complaining about others negativity.

If they did, they were the only one, and it was long ago.

Someone hacked Demi's computer... [emoji6]

Im ok with this pick i guess. I wonder if we come back in the first?

I'm happy with it. We need some athleticism at LB. Zimmer was made coach to be a hands on molding player kind of guy. This could be great.

Raw. Not overly physical. Not very technically sound, not necessarily a natural fit in a 4-3. But, in Zimmer we trust.

My puke is still in my belly. I predict we move up and get David carr

[Texas Vike]

Barr doesn't feel like a 4-3 LB at any of the three positions. Did they draft him to play DE? OLB in a 3-4 hybrid?

I'll be amazed if he's a week one starter. This is a long term pick. I hope.

Mayock talked about him playing DE in rotation w/ Everson and Robison.

Barr's the one guy that I didn't really think deserved a top 10 ranking. The one silver lining with him is he's still moldable and Zimmer must feel like he can work with him.

[King James]

But atleast we didn't get Manziel. Which means there's a chance we can get McCarron tomorrow.

[MichViking]

So they gave up on hodges already?

[AP28TD]

I don't know how I feel about this.

Definitely. LB has been a big disappointment for many years so they needed to get a playmaker in there. I'm confident that Zimmer will turn him into something special.

Nailed it on the Barr prediction. He's huge, has tons of room to get bigger, and he's a huge hitter. I thought he was the most overlooked prospect in this entire process. IMO he's going to be better than Mack. We're going to have a HUGE front seven.
