For sure, if the BPA is a safety opposite HS they should take him, we've all seen the difference HS has made himself back there! Top play making players are more important than just getting a guy to play at MLB or DT for the sake of it. You get those kind of players in free agency.Demi wrote: The fact that it's even a competition between these three special teamers is insane! I'd love to get a guy in like Elam and forget competition, he's just better than them. Can't get much more average than these three. Might be a bigger talent available as well.
Set with those three

Re: Vikings to trade up
As far as trading up, if they believe Te'o can be there starting MLB for the next decade, I hope they're willing to move something and go get him. Don't just sit around with your thumb up your #### and "settle".

Re: Vikings to trade up
There's talk today of moving up to take Teo. That's my nightmare scenario. His best chance for success is to slide a bit and to come in hungry, not validated.
Re: Vikings to trade up
Boy, they sure did. Like I said, lately there seems to be a whole lot more substance to these rumors than most anyone gives the sports press credit for.
Very interesting reading the comments in this thread and comparing them to the after-the-fact comments in others. Night and day.

You're missing an important difference: the rumors in the press implied that they were going to move up from 23 or 25. That is, they were going to package one of their 1st rounders with other picks to move higher than 23.

Not to mention even the rumors of us trading up to 29 at the time were off, considering they all had us pegged to nab Te'o
