Two guaranteed starters................excellence. We have many needs but at least we didn't waste them on tweeners and headcases, we are not good enough to do that yet nor do we have a "got nothing to lose" attitude. Headway in our roster is what we needed. We are no longer G by committee, RT if needed, and an abundance of talent at the LB spot. We grabbed a guy that can play any of our three LB positions for when our next LB goes down. Give me Joe Adams and we improved all three phases of our game with all draft picks intact for next year.

I gave it an A. Without reservation.

Look, I didn't have either of these guys as "my picks", nor did I really want to go LB in 1 and O-line in 2. But I have no doubt that we got 2 very good players. Frankly, both should be eventual pro-bowlers. And yes,they were at positions of need. Add in Olsen and we made the most of those 3 picks.

It would seem petty to knock quality selections just because they weren't the ones I wanted.

We still have significant holes, just like a lot of other teams, and I expect Marty and Ron to bust their butts to somehow improve our roster to the extent possible, but I am really confident about the 2 guys we picked.

    • 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
