    The top 2, possibly 3 picks will definitely be QB, and 4 will go in the top 10, whether that will be whatever teams are picking there or other teams trading up.

    Be interesting to see what happens and if any of the QBs stay in college as they don’t want to be picked by whichever team looks most likely.

    I think Chicago will draft a QB and trade Fields.

    Oh yeah, I didn't consider trading up. But hey, we can always do that as well as I'd say we are definitely one of those teams that need a QB and atm life after Kirk is not pretty. Though we always tend to trade down. Gotta stack those 7th round picks

    It all depends how the board looks and if the Vikings scouts/coaches really believe there is a top talent available at probably pick 3 as to whether they trade up.

    It will cost a **** load to move into the top 2 and it wouldn’t surprise me if the Bears traded down which makes it harder for the Vikings as they won’t trade with them and potentially give the Vikings their franchise QB.

    Ultimately getting a QB is always what you want, but it’s very hard to do and the Vikings defence is so **** it might be worth just addressing that this draft. Then roll the dice with Jefferson if he wants to extend or not

    Not really, NFL is only for 3 or 4 months a year.

    Litter up? More like spread joy and wonder

    There's also the draft though! And pre season games, the combine...

    But yes, defence is also a good shout. At least with ty Chandler doing okay, running back is not a glaring need right now (though he definitely needs to be ahead of mattison in the depth chart). Maybe Nwangu might get more action next season, his returns seem pretty decent.

    The mind boggling thing is that Cross didn't even play badly, he averaged 103!

    Amazing. He struggled a little in the early legs and couldn’t buy a treble 19, but once he found his form he was unstoppable.

    Slow start for Littler. Can’t blame him if he’s nervous by now.

    By his own admission he needs a set to settle down, hoping this one goes all the way.
