In truth= I wanted the Vikings to trade up for PMahomes after he slid past the 8 slot.
I felt dumbfounded after they didn’t do it.
I realized later, I might be hoarding the thought for myself and that’s why it didn’t happen.
It’s like buying a bunch of rookie cards of a player before his play makes the price skyrocket.
P.S.
I wanted JJ McCarthy in this draft.


I don't remember much about that Mahomes draft, not sure why. I knew that he was crazy talented, but so were a lot of guys that fizzled or busted. 

Let's hope your feeling about JJM is spot on!
