Just now, Mr. Scot said:

These definitely aren't big names or huge salaries.

Damn quick out of the gate though. Pretty much nobody expected that.

I definitely had zero expectations of big names given it's year 2 of a rebuild. I like the fact that we have moved quickly on getting depth at our biggest position of need (outside of QB). I bet we slow play most other positions.

Cross the tier 1 guys off our wish list and get cracking on our tier 2 guys before they get picked over. Nice strategy since we had so many roster holes to fill.

I am not extremely happy with this---I wanted our own G Miller or Austin Blythe (Rams).  I can say that we keep getting former Viking OL and they are known for sucking there.  Maybe he is better at C than G-I dunno.  I am happy that we are addressing the OL.

My worry was just that -- the Vikings don't have a good track record with their offensive line spin-offs, even beyond the turds they've dropped on us over the years.

Six games with the Jets last season after being released... not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

NFL network just said there are a "crap load" of teams asking about Curtis Samuel.

He had a helluva year when someone finally figured out how to use him. If he gets on a team like the Ravens, he's going to be a madman out there.  His abilities and a hyper-mobile QB... scary.

Im assuming he will be signing with Buffalo or Washington soon, as per usual.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies
