Not many have us taking an edge defender in the 1st round. Me either. But I have run a few mocks where the best player on the board is K'Lavon Chaisson. Curious if the Vikings might consider that. Some are higher on Chaisson than others. PFF has him in the 40s, and says this about him: "Chaisson is a classic case of tools vs. production. All the skills are there for him to dominate as a pass-rusher, but why hasn't he?"

Could've been said about another LSU edge rusher we took a few years ago. 

For what it's worth, I've literally run 3-4 dozen sims and haven't seen him as a choice once.

Gil Brandt (I think) recently said that Chaisson reminds him a lot of Hunter at LSU...  more potential than actual production.  He also thought Chaisson has better physical talent than him for what it's worth...  that could be true, but I think the biggest reason Hunter has developed into the player he is has more to do with what's inside of him (work ethic, humble attitude, etc).  Not sure if Chaisson has that, but he would be a consideration if he drops to the early 20s.

Do the predictive TDN draft and not their big board. Came up Chaisson for me a couple days ago and again this morning. In fact, if I run the big board, I get all kinds of great players to choose from. If I run the predictive, which I think is meant to follow more what teams will do, then damned if everyone I want is gone.

From the article, FWIW: "Recently, Justin said he has talked most heavily with the Atlanta Falcons and the Minnesota #Vikings."

These are the players that most of my mocks - PFF/Walters have really move up into the first most often.

Elliot is very often gone by pick 25
Shenault is often gone as high as 12!!!! but usually before 22
Reagor top 20
Pittman top 30 
Curtis Weaver from Boise State is a first rounder

Last but not least CB K. Fulton is Top 20.

Again, FWIW but I find all of these surprising
