For me, free agency was...meh.  Now I'm trying to gear myself up for the up-coming draft with moments of worry.  Curious though, but I haven't followed the college level player much this year.  I would like to know others' opinions on who the Vikings select and why.

If Ed Oliver and Christian Wilkins are both gone then I would select ... Dexter Lawrence DT 6'4" 342 with 34 3/4 arms and ran a 5.05 forty Fughettaboutit!

Twins.



While many on here would freak I agree with you that all 3 should be ranked far enough ahead of Bradbury, Lidstrom, Risner and Cajuste that you have to take one.

But if they are sitting there along with Taylor, Dillard, Williams and Ford it gets much more interesting.

I personally think Wilkins, Taylor and maybe Dillard or Williams are gone by 18. But teams might devalue Oliver because of his coach being immature and Lawrence because of the injury and Wilkins being more polished (though I believe Dexter has the higher ceiling).

Heck, Lawrence might fall to late 1st territory. Oliver wouldn't last much past 18 if he even gets there.

If Taylor, Dillard and Williams are all gone and it's Oliver or Ford I would probably pick Oliver and then move up from 36 to secure Risner or Lidstrom.



Hey, FSU...  I've seen you say this in a couple different threads now...  Our 2nd round pick isn't at 36...  It's at #50.

Just trying to help you out old man...  :-D
