Sounds to me like a young guy having to much to drink and making a horrible intoxicated decision seen worse

That's what I thought before the draft, but our selection of 3T Jalyn Holmes, followed by Rick Spielman's comments, seems to suggest that JJ may figure more at nose tackle this year. I would think it's unlikely the Vikings would be able to keep both JJ and Parry (along with roster locks Linval, Richardson, and Holmes), so I sort of see it as a direct competition. What might give JJ an advantage is that, unlike the other DTs on the team who are decidedly either NTs or 3Ts, he can backup at both.

Dunno. I hope we have a true backup for Joseph. Our D is anchored by him and at the position, I don't want a 3T trying to play NT.

He just made a bad mistake by drinking too much. Not uncommon.
Stealing the golf cart taxi is uncommon though. 
Still, he seems to be a very good kid who just got too drunk that night.
Dunno, I have done some stupid shit with golf cars while drinking.

It will be interesting to see what happens. He's kind of an anomaly in that he probably profiles more as a 3T, but is a much better run defender than pass rusher. I think that's why the Vikings started him out at nose in training camp. But then they moved him to 3T for the preseason game against Seattle and he exploded. His play against the run in that game was called "dominant."
In either case, I think Zimmer will just enjoy the fact that he'll have plenty of good options for an inside rotation.
Dave "Golf Cart" Parry just has a ring to it.

I'm surprised we didn't wait until he was sentenced in a couple of weeks, just in case he gets a judge in a bad mood.
On February 25, 2017, Parry was arrested in Scottsdale, Arizona on suspicion of robbery, auto theft, criminal damage, resisting arrest and DUI charges. He was later charged with felony robbery, felony unlawful use of transportation and misdemeanor threats. On April 26, 2017, he pled guilty one count each of disorderly conduct and attempted unlawful means of transportation. Sentencing was set for May 31, 2017; he is expected to be sentenced to supervised probation.[
Uhm, might want to check your calendar there bud. somebody please tell me why we don't have a "Welcome To This Year" emoji? =)

Guess they though JJ was not going to cut it at NT.
