And our DBs get another shot in the arm. I like this pick, I hope Cole has been keeping in shape.

Re: ** Official 2013 Draft Thread **
I'm a little concerned with the pick. He's heralded as a "press corner" (similar to Cook) but the Vikings don't do much press coverage. I'm worried about how he's utilized.

I'm going to keep my fingers crossed that they somehow land Woods in the 2nd. Getting Floyd at #23 and Rhodes at #25, seems like the omens are good...dead_poet wrote:Rhodes it is.
Needed a corner. Let's hope he's a stud.
We'll need some ammo to bump up to grab a receiver.

2 defensive players. I called it on another post. I like it.

If Te'o doesnt go to the Ravens I hope we trade up in 2nd round and get him

I think we trade in the 2nd round to get our W/R and its another great draft for Spielman and Co. no matter who else we get. Great Job

Rhodes is a big #### dude with speed.
Speilman knows what he's doing. I love how quickly he puts the picks in.

2nd that emotion. I don't understand how they expect Ponder to succeed without viable WRs to throw to.

Defense will help Ponder, which helps the team. Tomorrow we grab that WR.VikingLord wrote:How's that for helping Ponder?
I do like the pick, though. Nice big, physical corner, locates the ball, will develop nicely with the right coaching.
A successful coach needs a patient wife, loyal dog, and great quarterback - and not necessarily in that order.

Re: ** Official 2013 Draft Thread **
Am I the only one thats not hyped about these picks? Floyd is overrated. And Rhodes (who I have never seen play just highlights) looks like a typical Vikings corner. He'll give up the catch and then make the tackle. I'm not excited about these picks at all. Hopefully I'm wrong and they turn out to be great, I just don't see it.
Re: ** Official 2013 Draft Thread **
LB and WR boards are still stacked. I'd trade up in the 2nd to grab what ever LB falls (Te'o, Brown, Ogletree, Minter), and then hit on a WR in the third
