Since we are basically thinking about 2021, if there are options at OL and QB when the Vikings pick, which way do you go and why?

1a-quarterback...1b-3t defensive tackle. Depending where we pick and what's available.

there will be both available, its a matter of what quality is there... also add DT to that list. IMO all 3 should be in play in the first round to go BPA with.

Depends on the OL and the QB. Both blue chip, I take the QB. But if we're looking at the top OL (after Sewell) vs. the 4th QB, I probably go OL.

But I agree with Jimmy. I might take the 3T ahead of the OL. If Cleveland and O'Neill are our tackles and all we need is a guard, then you can get them in the 2nd or 3rd. Also a chance O'Neill moves left, Cleveland stays at guard and maybe Udoh's ready on the right. Just more options on the OL than at DT. And with O'Neill, Cleveland and Bradbury likely headed toward big contracts, it may not make cap sense to draft OL in the first. That...and we REALLY need a 3T.

We are going no where without a franchise QB. Cousins is what he is, I just don't think we can go through 2 more years of consistently melting down in the clutch. This will be the highest we have picked in some time and it is a good QB class. Regardless of where we pick in the 1st round I think we need to go QB, but I would like us to be aggressive, just as KC was a few years ago and do what we have to do to move up and get the best QB possible.

Right now the Vikings are in the 12th spot. They could go in a number of different directions. But these are my (way too early) top five target choices.

QB- Zach Wilson
QB- Trey Lance
DL- Christian Barmore
OL- Christian Darrisaw
OL- Samuel Cosmi

I think if you ever get the chance to draft a QB you think could be top 5, you have to do it. Top 5 QBs are just so valuable and dramatically increase your SB chances.

Don't draft QB for need, but if you get the chance to get a winner, do it.

How do you get 12th spot? I thought strength of schedule was the tie breaker and the teams with the weaker SOS pick first, which would put the Vikes 15th currently. I am reading that wrong?

@JimmyinSD The 12th spot (or what ever it is) will obviously change by the end of the season,... but I based it off of this listing: http://www.tankathon.com/nfl

Looks like the difference is in how the 2 sites figured SOS. The score has the Vikings with a more difficult SOS than your site, but it looks like they are both using the right qualifiers.
