It is a copycat league. Philly showed the way, now teams are going to get bigger up front.

Overview
Inside/outside wide receiver with height, weight and length but missing ideal speed. Holden’s high-knee action in his take-off is unmistakable and he gets into routes with urgency. He’s a ready-made zone-beater with above-average play strength and feel for space. He’s capable of running a full route tree but will have issues getting off press and slipping man coverage. The tape doesn’t stand out, but his physicality and willingness as a run blocker is a differentiator that could help his cause.
Strengths
Touchdown-maker who averaged a TD grab for every 7.1 catches.
Possesses crafty elements in his route running.
Good spatial awareness as a zone target.
Catches with quick pluck-and-tuck to put it away.
Has footwork to stutter and sharply change direction.
Gets after it as a run blocker.
Weaknesses
Struggled to elude press coverage against Penn State.
Top-heavy with a lack of burst coming out of turns.
Slow to lock in as a deep-ball tracker.
Doesn’t feature much elusiveness after the catch.

Traeshon is a guy that gets open, that works wonders in the NFL. Slot guy, solid body. Does the little stuff and has the intangibles to be a WR3 in the NFL, IMO. Really good run blocker downfield. This is Nailor's last year in Minnesota, so time to scour for that new WR3. If it comes UDFA or 6th or 7th round, don't care.

Schwesinger consensus is 51. Would the Vikings really consider taking an off-ball LB with their first pick? Also interesting that Seattle has picks 50 and 52 and the trade math is pretty close. 24 (740) 50+52 (780)

Considering how we suffered when Cashman was out and to a lesser extent Pace, I could see it. I prefer Knight but if we did trade back I could see it after addressing either iDL, G, or CB.
