Anyone else?
I got a growing suspicion some team is going to make a big trade (top 5) b4 draft night.
I bet the phone lines are hot right now.
Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!

Unless the rumors are true that they really want Daniels and Washington picks Maye. Then we would be out of the top 3 QBs sweepstakes.
Trading up to #5 may be the only way to get to #3. The Patriots may have told the Vikings that they don't want to drop more than a slot or two...
People sleep peacably at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.

Right?
Depends on how many blue chippers Wolf sees out there. Or, there are 1-2 players they really want out of this (one of the QBs or MHJ for example).
At the end of the day, I am probably more in StickierBuns camp; 50/50 they can move up.. Hell, I might put it at 35% - 40% odds.

Very possible. But you hate the idea of having to put together two separate packages and getting held to the fire twice. Seems we could maybe do it cheaper by just doing a 3-way trade with the Pats and Chargers.
Something like...
Pats get pick 5 and Vikings '25 1st (JJM)
Chargers get pick 11 and 23 (LT and WR)
Vikings get pick 3 and Pats '25 3rd (Maye)

Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!
