Heard of KFan this morning that Levis has been removed from the Vikings draft board. Maybe BS, or maybe legit.
That's an eyebrow raiser for sure...
Huh, interesting if it's true. Personally I don't want them to draft him anyway.

So.... we're trading our #23, #87 and our '24 1st and jumping up to 10 for Levis. Got it. :p
Of course it could be smoke about Levis....or teams think he's another Johnny Manziel. Impossible to know until the Draft actually happens.
I wonder if Minnesota would have pulled the trigger on Manziel. I remember the famous quote from Zimmer to Manziel, 'Can I trust you??'
Slide on down, buddy. Wonder which team is sending out these smoke signals.

The 2023 NFL draft is set to begin in just two weeks, where we will learn the fate of the four top tier quarterback prospects: Bryce Young, CJ Stroud, Anthony Richardson, and Will Levis.
Stroud in particular has become harder to pin down, thanks to a poor performance on the S2 test and reports he isn't as coachable or easy to work with as scouts and team personnel would like him to be.
Coty Davis and John Hickman the hosts of the Locked on Texans podcast brought Locked on Buckeyes host Jay Stephens onto the show to discuss the latest rumors surrounding Stroud and whether he could still be a fit in Houston.
"I never heard or thought anything about Stroud being a hard person to coach," Stephens said. "I never heard or thought that Stroud wasn't a good young man. I never once thought that at all. I don't know why people do this...they are finding something that I don't think [exists]."

Ohio State football has produced plenty of NFL stars over the years. QB CJ Stroud is expected to be the next former Buckeye to find success at the professional level. However, Michael Lombardi isn’t sure about Stroud’s standing as a top-two pick in the upcoming NFL Draft, per VSiI on Twitter.
“I’m not sold CJ Stroud is going number two,” Lombardi said.Bryce Young is the expected No. 1 overall pick, and the majority of people around the NFL world have primarily predicted that the Houston Texans will then draft Stroud. Lombardi revealed what he’s heard about Stroud with the NFL Draft right around the corner.
“Everybody just assumes that Houston’s taking the quarterback,” he stated. “CJ Stroud’s an interesting guy. When you talk to people in the league they will tell you CJ Stroud is not, this is not a knock this is just a conversation, not an easy guy to coach… I think the word that people use is he’s very not believing in what you are saying. So he’s a little bit challenging to coach.”
@AdamSchefter just bet @danorlovsky7 that two QBs won't be selected before the Colts at No. 4 overall. "Indianapolis may be sitting there with its pick of the litter. Anthony Richardson, or Will Levis or C.J. Stroud.

Of course though, what college coach is going to be brutally honest or even say anything that may hurt one of their players draft stock. Imagine how that would get used against him with future recruiting campaigns.

Yeah, I'm not in the market of listening to college coaches about their players. Its like asking Mom what kind of son they have.

Which is exactly why I wonder which team is throwing this out there (Slick Jimmy Irsay?). Subterfuge season.

Teams only remove players from their boards for medical or character issues. So if this is true, it's because of something serious they discovered, and not just about being "cocky" or "flaky" or whatever.
Keep in mind that Levis's coach at Kentucky in 2021 was Liam Coen, who was the Rams OC last year, and on staff with KOC with the Rams for three years prior to that. The two are friends.
If the Vikings have taken him off their board, they know something. Or that's what they want others to believe.
