You guys are assuming the Vikings stay at 23. Spielman could flip that pick for a couple more thirds.
Or maybe he'll get every pick in the 7th round.
I hope they can use some of those 3rds to get into the second, but where in the second? At the end? I would rather have the 1st high end talent.

According to the draft calculator, we won that trade in terms of value by quite a bit actually. Jets got 1292 in value. Vikings got 1680
Thanks for checking.

I think he will stay though, lot of talent falling
5 QB's being taken early pushed some players down from where they might have been taken. I did like that SC guard though. Maybe they figure OL easier to get later in the draft.

I would trade Rick for any other GM but Mike Maylock.

They seem to always figure that, and it seems to work well.

I can picture slick Rick frantically googling “Mel Kiper’s best available”

So you would trade him for Jerry Jones?

Darrenshaw, Perkins, or Paye would be good picks

Not just no, but hell no.
Then you would not trade Rick for any other general manager

Either two, it could go either way, if Vikings pass on both, I will be surprised
