No, he praised him, just in an odd way especially after I'd just read your "man-crush" comment.

Camera guys packing up their stuff here. You can put those "#Vikings trade back into the first round" scenarios (and yourselves) to bed.

Then I guess we will fight for his favor.

They don't have as much ammo for a move like that this year.

Look at it this way, unless he goes at the end of this round tonight, Jack will still be available tomorrow.

Man...it already was. They're good. Our offensive line needs to get better in a hurry.

1) Myles Jack falls out of the top-10
2) There is at least one more trade in the top-10
3) Three quarterbacks are somehow chosen in R1 (I'm tempted to put four here)
4) At least three wide receivers are chosen in R1 despite being a "weak" class
5) Colin Kaepernick is traded
6) Zeke "falls" out of the top-10
7) Will Fuller or Cory Coleman will be the first receiver drafted
8) Eli Apple will be a first round pick
9) IF Zeke goes in the top-10, it will be due to a trade
10) Myles Jack isn't selected tonight
7/10 ain't bad.
