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.

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.🤔😣

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