Agreed. Too many other options available to round out our position group. I think the only way we go corner is if a complete unexpected happens like Will Johnson falling into our laps, which I think could be possible now. Not likely, but possible

Basically play speed vs timed speed. Not made up but quantified.

It's definitely a thing. I seen't it. And anyway, it's not like we're talking about a slow guy here. Starks ran 4.50. That's fast for a safety. Safeties who run under 4.5 are rare. Kyle Hamilton ran a 4.58. Brian Branch ran a 4.58. I don't know if Starks can play in the NFL or not, but he timed faster than both of those guys. His 3-cone and shuttle times drag his RAS down, but his 40 and 10 are very good. Add in the instincts, versatility and play speed and he promises to be a pretty good player.

Heard today that Travis Hunter has played 2600 snaps over the last two seasons. That’s four years worth in two seasons, that’s a lot of wear & tear!

The Vikings need a CB and if that's the BPA, so be it. But it'll go over with the Purple Twitterverse like a hot fart in church. Which means nothing but the meltdown will be humorous.

That's the thing though, there are still options in free agency that would round out the unit. We know the Asanta Samuel rumor and that we've been highly interested in Jack Jones in the past. There's been interest in bringing Griffin back. If there is no interest in any of these options than go ahead and take a corner, but I'd certainly prefer to address the position in free agency and draft other positions
