Bah. Star's gone. I don't know why I got my hopes up.

Only 8 left before the Vikings at #23

Shariff Floyd
Xaviar Rhodes
Geno Smith
Kenny Vaccaro
Tyler Eifert

If a couple more OTs get picked, like Menelik Watson and Justin Pugh, the Vikings are going to have their pick of LBs and WRs.

I think they will definitely go LB first -- but who knows.

I think it's a question of fit and team needs.

If he keeps falling, I wonder if the Vikes will consider jumping up to get him.
But Richardson, a 3-technique to the Jets 3-4? Seems like an odd fit.

I'd do it just for the 1st next year and a later pick this year, if any.

I keep getting the feeling we will take Te'o with our 1st pick.

Unless they plan on switching to 4-3 which I doubt...

Anyone have an updating list of best available (from anyone) on the internet? Something that shows the guys who are left so I don't have to try and remember all the picks.
