Going to be very interesting to see where Minnesota goes with the second pick in Round 2. They couldn't possibly take a QB, could they? Andrew Booth will be there if Tampa doesn't take him. 
Nakobe Dean? Trade down? 

I think I'd like to see the board's reaction to a Malik Willis selection, lmao.

Minnesota began the night with the 34th overall pick but traded down with Green Bay to acquire the 53rd and 59th overall selections.
The Vikings then sent the 53rd, 77th and 192nd overall selections to the Indianapolis Colts to draft Booth at 42 and pick up the 122nd overall selection.

The Colts traded down to open their 2022 NFL Draft, sending picks Nos. 42 (second round) and 122 (fourth round) to the Minnesota Vikings in exchange for the Nos. 53 (second round), 77 (third round) and 192 (sixth round) selections.15 mins ago

Ill go on record.  i like what weve done so far. its obvious that we’re looking more long term and we need depth on D.  more picks for a draft thats reportedly 70 deep. Im okay with this.

Same. Day 2 has gone a lot better so far. Hope 59 seems to be another good one

The sky was supposedly falling last night. What a difference a day makes.

It did fall last night. Then starting today trading way down with the Packers of all teams. We were so far down we had to trade back up to land Booth when corner was getting scarce at the cost of our own 3rd round pick next round. So we've made two trade downs with division rivals who landed playmaker's they badly needed. If you guys like all that...more power to you. Nothing they've done today thusfar has been very impressive

Do we like this OU linebacker? Tape they showed made him look stout.

Getting Booth where we did was solid even though I don’t love hearing “just had core muscle surgery” after last year with Darrisaw. 

The OLineman who knows. I’m done expecting anything from those guys until they do it on Sundays. Hopefully he pans out. We need the help.

I liked him after watching his highlights. The downside is he played at OU, which is the Big 12, and they dont play defense. Somewhat kidding. The conference doesnt play a lot of NFL realistic offensive sets so its tough to judge some of the defensive players. Not sure how much he actually weighs so idk if hes a LB or not?

I woulda grabbed Booth at 34 anyway, so glad we got him.
Going all Defense thus far, good with it

Just dont like giving our picks to division rivals, but I guess Im “out of touch” with whatever “analytics” say.

Christian Watson, from NDSU is “awesome”? Interesting, havent seen him play in the NFL yet

How many '22 draftees have played in the nfl?
