Evans is the acorn that becomes the oak?

Its been a weird draft this year with the trades, especially to division rivals.  Seems some are still upset with the choice of our GM and finding a reason to still rip him based on this draft.  Reading through some of the draft threads every player not picked by the Vikings is going to be an instant starter and/or pro bowl player but yet every player the Vikings have picked is a scrub, has injury issues, or just plain was a reach.  Maybe that is all true but why not let the players they picked prove it on the field.

Funny, that. I think it's the nature of many Viking fans. Many have convinced themselves they can't have anything nice. So they will point out every blemish on our picks, while ignoring the gash on the face of others.

Dont really care about the number of college interceptions. Vikes need corners who arent pathetic at their jobs. If Evans can create tight windows and pass breakups then im good. Kwesi liked him and wanted him badly so it’s nice to see it happen

There's a reason an athlete is a corner over a wide receiver.  Catching the ball might just be why.  If the dude can cover someone, thats a major step in the right direction.

I'm not concern about the number of interceptions he had in college...Hell, Hunter only had like what, three sacks while he was at LSU...
