CBS Mock: #3 Edge to Vikes @ 24; Tua to Sin City???

[Ralphie]

Round 1 - Pick 24 



Yetur Gross-Matos EDGE
Penn State • Jr • 6'5" / 264 lbs 

Projected Team:  Minnesota
PROSPECT RNK: 19th
POSITION RNK: 3rd 

Minnesota is getting to the point where they will have to make decisions at all levels of their defense. They could be one of the more interesting teams to follow this offseason.

DL would not surprise me but I think DT makes more sense - we have a pipeline showing potential at DE (Odenigbo, Weatherly if we re-sign him).

DT and OL before DE.

I think edge only really makes sense in the context of
Griffen opting out of his contract.


I think DT, OG, and QB make the most amount of sense with
the first pick, unless you are looking at cutting expensive guys to make more
cap space and we need to fill those positions.

I wouldn't mind a DE in the 3rd or 4th, but I wouldn't be thrilled about drafting one in the 1st. A penetrating DT, LT, OG, QB (opportunistic), and even CB are bigger concerns.

What if Tua is available at pick 20 and cleared by doctors?

it would cost us to much to move up that far to get him.   to go from 31/32 to 20 is basically going to take a 2nd rounder with hoping they will give us back their 6th to sweeten the deal.  to much considering the other areas that we need to address along with QB.

At the bold...You made me laugh. That's a problem I would love especially if we are moving from 32.
