Rick Spielman possibly hinting at the possibility of the #Vikings trading down from 14. "If there are a lot of quarterbacks taken early on, there will be some good talent...when we're picking at 14, if we do stay at 14."

That would be ideal, as long as we can still pick up a high level prospect after trading down.

[Guest]

That would be great...I honestly think the guys they are looking at in the first round will be available in the 20s so might as well trade down and pick up an extra pick or two.

Let's hope all five QBs go before 14. I think you can easily say two OTs. Probably three CBs, and another two WRs. I think you can throw a LB in there. If we trade off #14, I don't know how far down you want to go.

Good chance we are looking at a WR or OT worthy of #14, in Smith or Darrisaw. If we trade down to 19-21, the DEs are still not quite worthy until you factor in need. Trade down a little further, and DTs, or DT, is also still not worthy until factoring in need.

Rick Spielman denies that Danielle Hunter ever made the request to become the league's highest-paid defensive player or get traded. Spielman responded to the question with a simple, "No."

Good.vikesinsiderDanielle Hunter is NOT "unhappy" with his current contract. Hunter has NEVER requested to be the highest-paid defensive player or be traded away from the Vikings, according to Vikings GM Rick Spielman. 

James Cooper, who is Hunters Personal Trainer, stated that he has no issues with money.

The rumors that popped up earlier this year were false. Nothing points to Hunter being unhappy.

On another note, GM Rick Spielman says that Danielle Hunter has been doing well in recovering from his neck surgery.

With so many QBs, WRs and CBs projected to go in the top 13, the Vikings are going to be looking at a lot of very good players at 14 at positions of need. If that player cluster 4 or 6 players deep, you can bet they'll try to trade down. 

However, interesting that in this comment he insinuates the Vikings would not have interest in a QB--that QBs going early and pushing other positions down is a good thing. Yeah, most people realize we're set with Cousins, but to actually say it is a little interesting.
