Looking like we'll be going interior OL to me. Elflein hopefully. Hated seeing Moton go. I was hoping he might slide to us.S197 wrote:There goes Pocic, damn you Seattle.

I honestly don't know if there's really a big drop off from a guy like Elflein and Feeney to your Asiata or Johnson's that may be around.fiestavike wrote: Looking like we'll be going interior OL to me. Elflein hopefully. Hated seeing Moton go. I was hoping he might slide to us.
I think the Vikings have selected two guys who are fits in what they are looking for, but are getting really low relative value given the strength of the positions they are drafting this year. And twice traded up to do so! I'd have to give them a poor grade on how they are doing, even though both players will be good contributors.S197 wrote: I honestly don't know if there's really a big drop off from a guy like Elflein and Feeney to your Asiata or Johnson's that may be around.
If Dede Westbrook or Cooper Kupp is around, do you go that route?
I think so too, I like his ability to play center or either guard position.Mothman wrote:It's Elflein.
Good pick.
Between last year, and how the draft is going this year, it feels like thay have sunk into 'win now' mode. Getting depressing.Texas Vike wrote: I think so too, I like his ability to play center or either guard position.
Would you rather they didn't win so soon?fiestavike wrote: Between last year, and how the draft is going this year, it feels like thay have sunk into 'win now' mode. Getting depressing.
We gave up a 5th rounder.Texas Vike wrote: I think so too, I like his ability to play center or either guard position.
Anyone know what we gave up to move from 79?

Think it was a good move given how thin this OL class is.
