More and more I dive into it, I want Jonah Monheim. No matter what.

"They [Ohio State] have gone from zone blocking to more of a gap scheme, which creates good blocking angles for offensive linemen."
I think Jackson would be a great fit for us. He came in for left tackle Josh Simmons after he went down with a knee injury and played well there. Vikings may ask him to do the same thing while Darrisaw recovers. Played a lot of gap at OSU, but you see a lot of reach blocks in his clips.
Something to keep in mind at the bold. If the Vikings are going to employ more gap, a guy who went through that transition in college is a guy you might want.

The more I dig in the more I like this pick. That’s not always the case.

In all reality, we still need a C of the future. We have to decide what we are going to do with O'Neill.

Its possible Michael Jurgens could be that guy for the Vikings. I think now its clear that Brandel is the backup swing OG and Jurgens will be behind Kelly. I'd like for him to focus on center and not guard, which will help.

No hurry on the C of the future, but I'm not sure what you mean by O'Neill.

Hes an UFA in 2027. All I am saying, you will need to resign him. Unless we let his contract play out.
