Now tell us this...what happens if a guy like Fields slips to #14?
I think they'd at least pause and consider it. But more likely I could see them using him as a ticket to trade back for a premium knowing a team is coming up for a QB.

Interesting. I guess that would go a long way to show they really are all in with Kirk.

or that they are not in on Fields. The guy was the projected #2 QB of this draft 6 months ago and now he's possibly the 4th or 5th off the board depending on what you read and believe.

The season of subterfuge.

I have a good feeling the Vikings will like Fields a lot given their tendencies.

I know some people really get into this time of year, and I used to be one of them, but with all the bull shit we get in our daily lives these days, I really dont care for it in my distractions as well. the posturing for contracts, the posturing for draft strategy... fuck it, I am ready to know who is on this team, who wants to be on this team, and get the fuck on with it already. I read these threads hoping for some shred of credible evidence of direction, but I really should know better by now.
Jimmy needs more of this...

I do enjoy it, to a degree. There comes a point where I wish the draft is over and I can get a grasp as to what the team will look like for the upcoming season.

Yeah...I'm a believer in the idea that when a prospect starts sliding, you shouldn't necessarily say, "Oh boy, everyone else is stupid, I'm about to get a bargain!" That's when you think, "Why is everyone else scared off?"
There are times when a slide happens for stupid, off-field reasons: Dalvin Cook, Laremy Tunsil, Randy Moss, Warren Sapp. But that won't be the case with Fields. I think the "steal" of Randy Moss weighs so heavily in Vikings' fans minds that we are always looking for the steal. Sometimes it works but there should be a caution light.

J.Jefferson, Dalvin Cook...I got my real current and solid reasons for getting giddy about steals.
