What's not to get? The tight end position is really hot right now. NFL is a copycat league. Everyone things they can develop them.
The Minnesota Vikings traded the No. 81 overall pick to the Detroit Lions for the No. 88 overall pick and a sixth-rounder (No. 204 overall)
The Minnesota Vikings traded the No. 88 overall pick, along with their sixth-rounder (No. 209) to Seattle for the No. 92 overall pick and a fifth round selection (No. 159).
The Minnesota Vikings traded down one spot, dealing their No. 92 overall pick to the New York Jets for the No. 93 overall pick and the No. 217 overall selection (seventh round).
The Minnesota Vikings traded the No. 93 overall pick to the Baltimore Ravens for the No. 102 overall pick (third round),and two sixth-rounders (No. 191 and 193 overall).
I got my wish, can't wait to see David in Matt Nagy's offense.,so happy for D M and his family, this is AwesomeBears ,first round :Kalill Mack second round :Anthony Miller third round: David Montgomery fourth round: Armani Hooker
Since I work early, I’m usually in bed by 8, but I stayed up for that last Vikings pick. As the traded down and down.....
(I’m sure two or three of those will wind up Pro Bowlers, right Rick?)
This. It's about the cap. If Minnesota can get a bunch of late rounders that they feel can contribute, they'll be able to cut some of their bigger contracts. It sucks to lose vets, but being in cap hell sucks too.Wasn't surprised that Trader Rick kept trading to get into the fifth round. He also needs a bunch of cheap late round guys because his problems with the cap.
I like all of his picks thus far and would love to see him take Hakeem in the fourth, if he's there.
Thanks. The problem is, you have to find those “guys who can contribute” that late.This. It's about the cap. If Minnesota can get a bunch of late rounders that they feel can contribute, they'll be able to cut some of their bigger contracts. It sucks to lose vets, but being in cap hell sucks too.
I don't know. A fourth round pick for a TE in the last year of his deal, who is getting a little long in the tooth might be the best you can do.Will be curious to see how bad the Vikes want to unload Rudolph's big contract being he's in his last year. NE has three 4th round picks. Doesn't seem like good value for the Vikes, but it will be interesting to see who's on the clock with #16 in the 4th.
