I would have read the whole mock, but fell over laughing seeing McDuffie at 27 and just now caught my breath  :p  Somebody needs to check that simulator.

This team has a Mannion and something called a Mond...Purdy should make your stomach feel a little better.

Love the top half of your draft. And love that you added a high pick next year. But RSE is right. McDuffie at 27 is pretty unrealistic. NFL.com, Dane Brugler, Chris Simms and PFF all have McDuffie ranked as the 2nd corner. NFL.com and PFF have him ranked 7th overall. Where will he go? I'd say somewhere between 10 and 18.

If the draft falls that way, I would stay at 12 and take Williams or Davis. No way McDuffie falls that far and that's why I hate the idea of trading down to the end of the first. Booth and Elam are also gone before 27 in this mock. The idea of trading down and trying to target a specific position at the same time(CB) is a poor draft strategy. Spielman got away with it last year with Darrisaw. I'm guessing because teams knew about his injury, but that could have easily blown up in his face.

History shows that trading down results in better value than staying put. But I agree that this year Vikings can't trade down too far. If our target is corner (and it likely is), Vikings can't trade down much past 16-18 IMO.

I think there are three potentially elite corners: Sauce, Mac and DSJ. Booth is a notch down but just barely. After that, I think there's a drop off before you get to a blurry group of flawed corners including the likes of Gordon, Elam, McCreary, Woolen, Jones, Armour-Davis, etc. Vikings need to get one from that first group, not the second.

Trade Mcduffie for Andrew Booth and that is more likely and I actually like Booth more than McDuffie too.

Still trying to find any "tape" of McDuffie or Gordon facing an NFL caliber receiver. One that actually got drafted.  The hype on this young man is crazy.

I'll take Roger McCreary all day every day and twice on Sunday of McDuffie.

You're drafting McDuffie on traits and "tape" against scrubs.

The Husky run defense was so bad this year that teams just ran it.

Where is the actual "tape" of McDuffie shutting down any NFL caliber receiver.

I can wait.
