You gotta be waking up today thanking the football gods and in some state of disbelief to be in this situation after 7 long years.

From the gutter of the NFL in NY and Carolina to national games, playing for division titles, playoff seeding and perhaps the #1 seed in the NFC. 

Be nice if the gods smile on him and our franchise too. We deserve it as fans lol!

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

The performance of Sheduer Sanders and all these top college quarterback prospects also has to put a smile on Sam's face because it only increases his value in free agency. Sanders getting his ass whooped in a meaningless bowl game against BYU last night wasn't a good look

I had to turn that stinker of a game off...yuch

Admittedly, I have not watched much of Shedder this year. He sure didnt look like a #1 overall pick last night. Beck doesnt look like a #1 pick imo so who does that leave? 

Ward?

QB needy teams need to tread careful - great year to be a FA QB with QB1 potential.

Yup, pretty much Ward, who most see as a nice prospect, but probably a guy who in most drafts would be going mid to late 1st round instead of #1 overall. I can say pretty confidently that if McCarthy were in this draft class he'd be the top overall quarterback prospect. All this bodes very well for Sam Darnold.

I don’t like this years crop at all.  Lot of me first in the group.  I think we’ll love the McCarthy pick in 2-3 years if not next year.

I'm super happy for him. Getting closer to a Culpepper record for tds.
