@RapSheet The #Vikings had trade offers, but take #UCF CB Mike Hughes. He had off the field issues, but can’t argue with the talent. He goes No. 30.

@NFLFilmStudy Mike Hughes is a big time talent. Man corner who can play inside or out with his skill set. Better fit in one of the heaviest man schemes in the league than Josh Jackson. Terrific explosiveness in his lower body

He is small, very little experience, and has character issues. I just dont see what the Vikings office saw. I think once again Rick is overlooking the value of offensive linemen. If we dont go Oline in rd 2, we better pick Anthony Miller. Man, I love this guy. He is like a faster Diggs, with better route running then Theilen even, and thats hard to beat. Gives Cousins 4 great targets to throw the ball to. If he has the time.....

Rick doesn't like olinemen and he keep trying to plug anyone in there. I expect us to trade out of round 2 because Ricky needs more picks.
The pick is fine. But online is an issue. I don't like Easton as a blocker and I would kill for a guy that actually open up a few holes.
This pick might be more of an indictment against Alexander than Waynes. Hughes is small for the prototypical Zimmer outside corner. The only way this pick makes sense is if you had him really high on your board, like #15 or so. That and maybe Hernandez doesn't fit your scheme. But what about Daniels? He seems to fit perfectly. You don't want to move Elflein to guard? I'd rather that than move Remmers.
I don't get it and I dislike the pick. The only solace I have is we got Elflein in the 3rd so maybe we get lucky twice. But it's quite the gamble. The only thing that could make this worse is if we draft Orlando Brown.

If one player has the possibility of replacing 3 players (Newman, Alexander, Sherels), maybe it's not a bad pick after all.
