The 2022 draft was the first in Vikings history where the team drafted three defensive backs in the first four rounds: Georgia safety Lewis Cine, Clemson cornerback Andrew Booth Jr. and Missouri corner Akayleb Evans. 
Exactly what this team needed most. Definitely thought DB would be two of our first three picks. Knew nothing about Evans before the draft but his profile is intriguing.

Like others have posted, its a shame the previous regime left the current regime so boxed-in regarding roster needs...

This right here had an impact on the draft. They are still having to do clean up from the previous regime. There are still financial implications that they sorting through.

If you haven’t listened to Lewis Cine’s post draft interview, you really need to.
Love this guy.  He sounds like he really has his poop in a pile!

Agree, TG. I think Cine is going to be a great player for us. He definitely has team leader material too.

Got his experience piling poop sweeping up what Kwesi left all over the draft room this weekend.

I am completely done making excuses for this team. The Wilf era for me has been incredibly forgetful all in all. From the triangle of authoriity, to all the orher bullshit moves. Ok we got a stadium built. But that would have happened with or without.

Here’s the thing if you are going to rock the boat and do shit differently than normal, you better fucking nail it. So with Kwesi, fine…. Do your weird draft strategy, but if it desn’y pay off, you are a daned fool waste g wveryone’s time once again.

I think most of us are here to some level. But the new regime deserves some time.... and they'll get it from the Wilfs as they are patient. Like I said, I agree with you and said as much the last few days: the draft was weird. But that doesn't mean it won't turn out to be very successful. Time will tell.

I’m more sick of our fans than the team right now.  It’s a constant rainy day in Vikings fandom.  The Vikings do something 10% less than
optimal and we’ll make it seem like the earth is ending.  Even the optimism was shaped from hatred
towards the past in the form of I hated the last guy so much that the new guy must
be perfect.
