Trade up to #4?

Here's a scenario that could be of great interest. If Miami misses out on Peyton, they will go hard after Flynn and likely get him. this will leave Cleveland in dire straights as far as having a competent starting QB. They will be looking hard at Tannehill but they know #4 is too early for him. But our pick #9 is actually the perfect spot to grab Tannehill and gain a few picks just a few spots in front of Seattle and KC.

I personally would be willing to trade our 1st next year for the 6 slot swap in order to get Claiborne or Blackmon this year. It might only require our 2nd rounder this year ( based on the fact that a 1st rounder for next year is considered the same value as a current second rounder ).

Just wanted some opinions on this trade that IMHO has some serious potential especially with Hurney..

Why are we willing to trade back to receive second and third rounders we are notoriously known for missing big on? Why don't we trade up in the first and get the stud we want in Claiborne? We will have a potentially lockdown corner locked up for cheap for years to come. Look at the receivers in our division, they are better than the RB's at this point. We need a CB more than a DT.

We have more needs than just another CB though. What about Jenkins at #22 or Gillmore?

Claiborne is not a guarantee either. Patrick Peterson was pretty abysmal when it came to coverage last year....just saying

    • Why don't we just say they can shove the late round draft picks up their ass? If they want a player they will be starting at WR in Week 1, I want a MLB in return that we can start Week 1. Starter for a Starter Not Starter for a draft pick we'll be debating whether or not they should make the final 53 man roster in 2026.
    • Why?   No. This isn't a situation of a player we want to trade because we have no use for them.  He's our starting slot WR, our leader of the young WR room, Bryce's safety option the last 2 years who he has good chemistry with. If the Vikings didn't run into WR trouble, we'd never have been even considering trading him, so why in the world should we give him up for fair market value in a vacuum for Thielen and disregard what losing him off our roster will do for us this year? A 5th round pick in 2026 is a negligible draft pick, especially with this season being so make or break for Bryce and Canales.
    • The Vikings acquiring all these late round picks has me feeling like we're about to see another CMC situation play out here. Trade a player we really like for the equivalent of what we want for them on the draft pick chart, but because of a bunch of late round picks instead of the one pick value we actually want. Which will do the same thing in the end, nothing, because 6th and 7th round picks rarely work out to begin with, or we're just going to use them to move up 10 picks in the 3rd or 4th round to take another DJ Johnson
