I want a center. Or Spriggs.

I'd be tempted. It depends on who else is available.

Ton of guys left I still like a lot. LB is pretty shallow. If they don't get one this round probably just scraps and backups remaining, so Perry, Ragland, are possibilities.

I'm bummed about LT situation. Probably not a guy to select in the 2nd unless they think Spriggs is a fit...not sure he is. Whitehair and Martin are both interesting, especially with position flexibility.

Not crazy about remaining safeties, but if they go that route I'm ok with it.

Wouldn't mind one of the stout DTs either.

Well, the Vikings will regret the day they passed on Myles Jack unfortunately.


Hopefully S'ua Cravens lasts.
