Vikingpaul 73, I have not heard of Gregory DE will have to check him out...

I agree our OL is my biggest gripe on the Vikings ...

I know Kalil and other don't like getting nagged by fans, but sometimes
I am like how hard is it to block a guy... come on people

If DGB made it to the 3rd I would be really happy. What about Tom Johnson?

[nightowl]

Here's the 3 round mock I ran using a composite big board. It's completely ridiculous to think Leonard Williams would fall to 11, but he did.

11: R1P11 - DT LEONARD WILLIAMS - SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA

45: R2P13 - OLB PAUL DAWSON - TCU

76: R3P12 - WR PHILLIP DORSETT - MIAMI (FLA.)

We have to get Paul Dawson

So, would this mean that Schofield and Selvie would compete for the same reserve defensive end role, or would one challenge Robison for a starting spot? Just curious.

Also, out of curiosity, who was around when Minnesota was on the clock at 11 that made you pick Trae Waynes?
