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

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.

Needed a corner. Let's hope he's a stud.

We'll need some ammo to bump up to grab a receiver.
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...

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. :? :oops:

I do like the pick, though. Nice big, physical corner, locates the ball, will develop nicely with the right coaching.
Defense will help Ponder, which helps the team. Tomorrow we grab that WR.

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.

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
