KC back on the way up. Taking a solid run blocking LT over a solid pass-blocking LT... With the top pick in the draft nonetheless...

Yep, they definitely have talent. Potential wild card team this year.

I'd say that is likely, but in the end of the 1st round. I bet we'll see some teams moving back up into the 1st to get their man at QB. Could be good for the Vikings.

I'm happy for Fisher, a small school guy who seems to have worked hard. But think about the level of competition. Sure he played against 'Michigan State and Iowa', but how is he going to do against Terrell Suggs?

Seriously?! What is he thinking? A Big Mac should've been the way to go.

This could come back to bite him.

Why? The further they fall the better trade ammo for the Vikings.

Yep, the more QBs picked before 23, the more MLBs, CB, WR, DT, OG available at 23!!

It is going to take a miracle for Hayden to still be on the board when we pick. I would love to get him but we would have to move up and that would be a mistake. IMO

Did anyone watching the NFL network see the stats on the Raiders picks!! Funny stuff. The pick AFTER the Raiders pick over several years....

Calvin Johnson (after Jamarcus Russell)
Larry Fitzgerald
Aaron Rodgers (after some dude I've never heard of)

Hysterical.

So is it good that there has been a run on positions we don't need?
