Interesting. Why did he fall ? Size? 

That's the only thing I can think of. He's possibly exclusively slot, so lack of schematic versatility?

We had 4 spots needed to upgrade starter-QB,CB,Slot,Guard    we have checked 3 boxes so next pick should be a Guard

Andrew Voorhees would be a cherry on top...

I initially thought he might not get drafted, but when I heard he was recovering well, I wanted the Vikings to draft him in the 2nd or 3rd.

I actually am surprised the Vikes didn’t take him.
 

(Random Note, being in Winnipeg, I have seen more Vikings games live far more than any other team.  7.5 hour drive to Minnie, almost half of the drive time to the next closest team to me, geographically.  Was at the game when All-Day set the NFL rushing record!)

I remember your saying you were going to the game in 2016. Luck had a great game.

Im wondering why Kelee Ringo is dropping that far. Did I miss something? 

He has a world of talent but I know when i watched Georgia this year he had some struggles.

 

It is possible his tape doesn't quite match his upside/potential.

 

I still think he has immense upside worth gambling on. But he definitely has some things to clean up that will get him killed at the next level. 

 

I would gladly trade up here to take him in a heartbeat using a 4 + 5 if we could.

Ok. Thx for the insight.

Seen the Colts there several times.  Vikings fans have always been uber hospitable.  My avatar pic is me from one of the Colts games in Minnie.

That's what I was thinking, Vorhees has that aggressive nature to match Nelson and the Athleticism to back it up, I think he would already be gone if he didn't get hurt during the combine. He won't play this year probably but would be worth the investment kind of like how we picked Dayo or Blackmon

I see someone in the back of your avatar with a Vikings uniform. I thought you were on your bike. Lol.

Dammmmmn the Ravens get Trenton Simpson?

 

Because of course they do!

 

Geez!

I was just checking to see if he was still on the board or if I missed him getting drafted. I really would have liked Simpson in our LB room as well. Ravens have a mean LB room.

My thought exactly.

Actually, that was in a parking lot tail gating.  Vikings fans called my wife and I over, both of us in our Colts jerseys, and they had purple shooters and blue shooters that they made up for Colts fans.  We did shots, blue vs purple.  Was a heck of a good time!  Minnesota hospitality.

    • I'm all for doubling down and going EDGE in the 1st again. Just got to make sure we get the right one. Depending on where we draft, I'm okay with trading up a couple of picks to snatch the better pass rusher of the bunch. Since there will be a good amount of rushers, I hear, let's go get the better one. I can also see the draft being the opposite as this years. Most teams will go defense now in this draft, and very good offensive players fall. I think we are perfect on offense, that's why I'm okay with trading up to get the guy we need on defense.
    • IMHO , its all about perspective   If you treat Pierce as WR1, you will be disappointed   If you treat Pierce as a solid contributor, you will be pleased   - The man can block, maybe the best blocking WR on this team - The man has speed - The man can rotate in with our other WRs   I do believe that AD Mitchell will take over as a starting outside WR   The reality is, 17 games is a LONG season,    Pittman and AD Mitchell will be "fresher" for the end of the game as they are rotated in and out   The odds say that there will be injuries, and we could see Pierce be a starter on either side   I for one, WANT to keep Pierce thru his rookie deal (We will see after that)      
    • Zach Moss is no RB1.  If he showed signs he was the Bills wouldn’t have traded him for Hines who also is no RB1.  Moss is a RB 2.  A good one too.  Fortunately for him a season playing behind the Colts OL worked out favorably for him. Moss became available because we have an RB1 and the Bengals jumped at the chance to fill a hole in their lineup and Moss can do that like he did for the Colts when Taylor wasn’t available.  He is not a back teams have to worry about like they have to do for Taylor.  Every team needs an RB1.  He was the Bills RB1 for a short time and shipped off to the Colts for Hines.  And they drafted him.  He certainly belongs on a NFL roster.  I wish he stayed to back up Taylor.  But money and opportunity always talks as it should.  I worry about our RB position if something happens to Taylor for a long period.  I think we should be looking for a proven player who would be that true backup you can rely on behind Taylor.  Right now that backup position is a position that concerns me.   The other being starting FS.
