Day 2 of 2009 Draft

Wewt.

Wild day yesterday.

5 picks today.

3rd

2x 4ths

5th

6th

Go Panthers!

I was wrong in my draft and both M. Johnson and Gilbert are both still available in the 3rd. I think one of them needs to be our 3rd round pick whether we trade up or wait. We need to land one of these guys to help our pass rush. Both I think have 1st round talent and in the 3rd would be a steal.

Still need depth on both lines

With next year's 1st rnd pick we got an under-sized DE who looks like right now better suited for LB and a questionable (IMO) CB.

I wouldn't totally be surprised to see those positions picked again.

Since we really didn't get a big boost to run game D, I do expect to see depth at the lines addressed - especially at DT (although all the big DTs are gone.

And yeah, I do expect Fox/Hurney to wast...er, use a pick on a QB.

As long as we don't trade our 2011 1st round draft pick to move up... :rolleyes:

I would love to see us get both Michael Johnson and Gilbert somehow. That would be crazy, I would give the draft a A if it happened.

    • 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
