2023 Big Board - Great Blue North Draft Report (gbnreport.com)

GBN just updated their Big Board 

I think Joey Porter is going to be there when Minnesota selects (if they don't trade up or down) and he's going to be a tough dude to bypass.

I wish you were right, but I don't see any way he falls to us, just like I don't see any way Levis falls to us like some of the Idiots at CBS have Mocked. I think Porter Jr. goes in the mid to late teens. He's definitely the type of player that I would be OK moving up to go get since it wouldn't cost you a ton of assets. He's the type of impact player we desperately need on defense and I don't think we will get one by waiting until 23 and selecting from what scraps are left over.

I tend to think so too. Mostly because I think Banks is a little bit cleaner player and could go ahead of Porter.

Sal Pal on NFL Radio this morning. Stated he believes there's a heavy lean within the Panthers organization to take Bryce Young with the #1 overall pick. Also stated Hendon Hooker has "been killing it in interviews" and believes he could go anywhere in the second half of the first round.

With age comes maturity and my guy is ancient. Not surprised he’s done well in interviews. 

But 31 or 32 by the time you get to your second contract? That's just kind of weird.

Agreed. His age + the Vols system has me a little nervous but I don't think we'll be in range of the top 4 unfortunately. At that point it's slim pickens unless Kwesi can pull a rabbit out of a hat with a later round guy. Seeing as how the Wilfs probably won't ever okay a "tank", any QB prospect we get is going to have warts. We do need something in the pipeline though, soon.

If you look at it from teams perspectives, I think that very well could be the case. Porter would be a slam dunk at #23 if he made it that far. He's one of the rare high floor/high ceiling prospects due to his length/physicality alone. I don't necessarily think they'll spend a 1st round pick at CB but there are a few guys that are blue chippers/1st round grades that it'd be tough to pass.

Vikings are reportedly meeting with Ole Miss WR Jonathan Mingo on a pre-draft visit. I like Mingo, had him in my mock draft 

Nothing against Mingo, but I would take a look at AT Perry too. Different players but feel like Perry fits the system a bit more.

I like Mingo the best out of the second tier prospects, but whatever the case, we need to get another legit receiving threat opposite Jefferson. Matt Landers from Arkansas is another later round prospect I'm starting to take a liking to as a physically gifted lump of clay. 6'4"/200 ran 4.37 at the Combine with a 37 inch vertical. Former Georgia transfer.
