#Vikings Justin Jefferson was the fifth WR taken in the NFL draft. He said on the The Zach Gelb Show on CBS Sports Radio: "Every single person that picked a receiver instead of me are going to pay. I’m going to show them that I am the better receiver than the pick that they had."

Gosh I seem to remember another player taken in the low 20's by the Vikings that had a certain grudge against teams passing on him-----hmmmm

Yup, that's what I was thinking. Moss taken at 21, JJ at 22, 22 years apart, chips on each shoulder. I also thought it was interesting that JJ chose #18, which was the number Moss used in his first training camp.

That sound like a nice healthy chip to have on one's shoulder.

The last time I heard about a receiver that got the fans all gooey after dropping....the fans turned on him inside a year.   Treadwell played the same card IIRC.

Something about babies and bathwater or after birth  or something here.

We have them at home...in an interesting only to me side note...the year I move out of the Tampa area, they play at the Ray Jay...where am I moving to? Charlotte...where that game will be played in Minnesota...I. Can't. Even. I'll probably land an apartment a 20 minute walk from BoA stadium too....

Don't beat yourself up too badly...IM(humble)O there is little chance this country is in Phase 3 by the time NFL comes around.  I hope I'm really wrong on that one.

Getting busier I hope) Fieldwork is slow we were so wet last fall (wettest autumn on record). Need some consistent heat and dry weather for about a month or we could be looking at the most preventive planting I have ever seen.
