[usmccharles]

the vikings traded up to seattles 32nd overall for teddy

who did they take with the orignal first

[Inqui]

who did they take with the orignal first

Anthony Barr.

One of the more relevant trades (to our situation) that I can remember was Miami trading from 12 to 3 for Dion Jordan, only giving up a third rounder. Since this class isn't amazing and the blue chip guys will most likely be gone, we could be looking at a similar package to trade back.

I would be ok with that.  Then take our two 3 round picks and trade down.  I know that wouldnt happen but ya never know

Adjusted by Desmond King staying in school:

Round 1: Ronnie Staley, OT

Brings stability to our offensive line. A huge reason for our failures this season, even prior to injury, was that Joe Flacco was throwing ducks off his back foot. He clearly did not have enough faith in his O-line to drive the ball where it needed to be. This happened on nearly every game ending pick (Denver, Arizona, need I go on?) Staley is a better pass protector than even Laremy Tunsil.

Round 2: Tyler Boyd, WR

This kid has broken most of the records of some guy named Larry Fitzgerald, and has a close personal relationship with our wide receiver coach Bobby Engram. Seems like a match made in heaven to me.

Round 3: Carl Lawson, OLB

He is my favorite pure pass rushing 3-4 OLB by leaps and bounds. He immediately becomes a situational pass rusher and is a big improvement on Courtney Upshaw in that department. Health is a concern, but he has shown he has recovered and the rewards at a 3rd round price tags are simply obscene.

this is more likely but no noah spence ?

Noah Spence had an ecstasy problem, and that is a major issue for me. Reports are that these troubles are behind him, but I value leadership too much to take him over someone like Carl Lawson. I also have an embarrassingly large crush on Carl Lawson as a pass rusher. I looked at some more tape on him, and I'll take him in the second just to lock him down. Updated based on more tape:

Health is a concern, but he has shown he has recovered. He is a top 20 player to me based on more tape, and I am willing to trade into the bottom on the 1st or even the 20s for him.

Round 3: Tyler Boyd, WR

His availability at this spot is unlikely, but his could knock him down. This kid has broken most of the records of some guy named Larry Fitzgerald, and has a close personal relationship with our wide receiver coach Bobby Engram. Seems like a match made in heaven to me.

Alternate 3rd Round Pick: Sterling Shepard, WR

If Boyd is gone, Shepard is a great consolation prize. I might even like him more than Boyd based on 2015 tape, in which Boyd had way too few routes down the field. Shepard is a huge reason why Baker Mayfield has had such an excellent season, and could have value comparable to TY Hilton in the third round.

First of all, it's Ronnie Stanley, not Staley. I can see why you are doing this because of Joe Staley, LT for the Niners, but they are not the same. Second, it's still not certain whether Lawson comes out or not.

[usmccharles]

You change your picks In an odd way each time I'm lol. Would be awesome if we got Boyd in the third tho

That is more like it for Lawson. I like him better than Bosa. He could even go top20. I like Stanley at 6. Lawson could end up top15 even. In that case perhaps a trade back and pick up Lawson round1 and Boyd round2. The OLine is pretty dominant with KO at tackle and Jensen Urschel and Yanda anchoring the interior. As much as I have a crush on KO as the best LG in the league he will be a fine left tackle and Jensen is a bad@$$ at guard in his own right!! Just ask geno Atkins and Stephon Tuitt. Urschel is the future at center. Cutting Zuttah saves almost $5 mil. Urschel will be a top6 center going into next yrs playoffs. Just to powerful and nasty to consider putting Zuttah back there.If ravens have legit playmakers to go with the Oline dominance, the offense would of put the steelers and Bengals away by halftime!! And of course Joe Cool back as well while cleaning up the penalties. For all the talk the cowboy line gets, it doesn't get the surge the ravens offensive line gets. Ravens are a couple playmakers from being very special on offense. Management has to see that!! Would be really nice to begin with pro day Perriman and Campanaro avoiding injury. And getting some kinda return on Perriman. Campanaro is a 1000 yard receiver for sure if he avoids injury. But a big if. A legit #1 like Boyd or Treadwell and perhaps trade for a receiver like a Marqise Lee (who showed some great athletic catches and routes the last couple games and ravens I expect to have the best offense in the league. Do not want to see Matthews or Butler back. Nothing conclusive to see them as legit Receivers. Aiken is a good #4. But the Oline, Joe Cool are to good for waiting to see if more Marlon Browns step up. Or more declining castaways.

the vikings traded up to seattles 32nd overall for teddy

 

Don't forget 2013 Draft

 

Vikings Selected

 

Sharrif Floyd with the 23rd pick (their original pick)

 

Xavier Rhodes with the 25th pick (from Seattle)

 

Corderelle Patterson with the 29th pick (from NE)

 

So its not unprecedented to trade up but their picks in other rounds (2-7) were much lower than Baltimores will be

well lawson is returning to school

Delightful. I will refrain from making any picks until after the combine, because I'm clearly scaring my favorite prospects away from the draft.

I can't be bothered going over the rest of the schools, but here's the list in case anyone has too much time (looking at you Crush):
