Official Vike Fans Day Two Draft Thread
Starting now...
https://www.vikings.com/video/spielman-discusses-the-picks-of-jefferson-and-gladney-in-round-one
I plan to watch the Draft tonight for the first time in many years. I can hack the 5 minutes between rounds much better than 10 (God, remember 15 minutes??!! for Round 1). I've suddenly found my Friday nights very open. :p
Beer will flow. Refreshing of this site along with banging Twitter (sounds naughty) will also be flowing.
I can't tell you how freaking grateful I am to have the distraction...
Jefferson - 18
Gladney - 20
Meadors - 26
Holmes - 91
Pierce - 98
Zettel - 92
Sharpe - 11
Hmmmmm...Pierce didn't take #97...
Can we pin this guy? Thank you
Like the man said, "hold on to your butts"
Roger Goodell will handle rounds two and three of the draft, because what else does he have to do on a stay-at-home Friday night? https://t.co/yhCm6fEfVA pic.twitter.com/Al4Jmm7RxX

Thanks for this thread. I watched last night and checked in here while trying to keep up with a Zoom virtual draft party. Oh and I dipped into a couple of Packer forums to see the reaction to the Love pick. Between the forums and the fan twitter fights, there were a lot of tears. Of course, it will probably pay off in the long run.
As for the purple, I'm pretty happy with Round 1 Rick.
I hope you washed your hands after visiting packer sites.

Maybe a subtle message to the Redskins in this as well? If you don't take our offer, we're going to go up and get our tackle.
Rick still without a contract...I think he's very focused

After 8PM Central I'll be bouncing between the draft and Dateline... hopefully tonight's picks don't end up a crime scene :p

or the Vikings.com site
https://www.vikings.com/
and elsewhere, I'm sure.
Okay, I'm really enjoying the happy hour. BRob gave some rookie advice to Gladney. It was very cool. Jared Allen and Nate Burleson have joined along with Josh Duhamel and they're discussing Antoine Winfield and AWJr.
Crossing fingers all my work pays off tonight! See you in the chat room too!
Day 2 of the draft is getting ready to start. Here's hoping the Vikings have another successful day of draft or better...SKOL Vikings! Make it happen!

Would really like IDL Elliott at 58.
Hope as many WR's go before the GB pick. Really hope they don't get Mims or Higgins.
