IMO This draft is too stacked with RB to take one early, especially with our O-line.

 

I would draft Nick Chubb in the second 

Need to address OL in Free Agency. Go get Matt Kalil (for a discount because of injury and his bro,) Jordan Mills, and Chance Warmack. Put them with Turner and Ryan Kalil and we're good to go for 3-4 years easy.

Ideally I would trade down in the first and pick up an extra pick and draft him or Cook and an offensive tackle. Kind of like the Stewart/Otah draft. That would be the best case scenario for the first round for us but Gettlemen will take some defensive guy at a position we don't need that will sit on the bench

Don't get rid of Norwell 

He'll still be on the team, but he'll have to earn his PT.

Our line has been too bad this year not to make everyone compete next year.

Turner will be in a contract year, if we don't extend him. Let Norwell fight it out with Warmack (or even Jonathan Cooper if we want to spend a little more) for the other G spot. Whomever loses the battle with be a solid rotational guy should we need him like we did this year.

Why do people keep suggesting matt Kalil?? he is garbage. if the Vikings want think enough to resign him as bad as there line is why should we??

He's not garbage. He's just been banged up after a little bit of a slump. We have the space. Minnesota doesn't.

      So dumb I get it, they want to expand the reach of the NFL, but it's not the right sport to be playing games halfway around the world for a variety of reasons.   But one of the main ones is what happens if a player has an injury in that game? A lot of times, you're not supposed to fly right after some injuries, so when they happen here it's not a big deal, the player stays in that town for a few days and then flys home separately.  But that opens a whole bag of worms if the game is played all the way out in Australia. Plus just needing that long of a flight to get out there and back, even if they get a bye week after, it means a ton of travel and needing to adjust to a new time zone directly after another game.

      I don't think it was fear of the unknown because he tried to hide the extent of the injuries that made him drop. After the drop, the reports I heard were that teams knew what was wrong with his knee and it was something similar to another athlete from a few years ago (honestly don't remember if it was even a football player).  That it was basically one of those things where he should be fine for a while, there isn't a huge concern of immediate injury risk.   But what he has going on with his knee is something that is degenerative and there's little chance he'll be able to play more than 5 or so years on it before he won't be able to play anymore. So basically it was teams knowing if they draft him, he's probably going to be only a rookie contract player and even if he's great, you might not be able to get use out of him on a second contract.  Which in turn makes the drop make sense, but I'm kinda surprised some contending team didn't take him late in the 1st, hoping he'd put them over the top on a SB run but then not even have to worry about giving him a big contract in 4 years too.
