How would Vikings fans have felt trading 2 #1's for Ramsey?

I would have had "mixed emotions" to say the least...

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

I think I'd have been pretty pissed about giving up two #1 picks for a corner back.  I don't care how good he is.

Just a strange move IMO.  If they are set on Goff (4 yrs. $130m) why not invest (what's left) on the O-line?

That would have pissed me off tremendously. Also Ramsey is a tool, I don't want toxicity in the locker room.

It would have pissed me off completely. Just because we really just don't need him.

Right at this moment, I can't think of any player I'd want for two first round draft picks...

Mahomes and Mack come to mind as no brainers that'd I give up 2 #1s for.  I wouldn't have given up 2 #1s for Ramsey.

I wouldn't want any player on the team that would potentially make up a bunch of lame excuses not to play because he's disgruntled. And I wouldn't mortgage the future for a top cb.

Regardless of who you are getting in return, when you give up a first you give up the opportunity to get a good young talent cheap for 4 years and have the 5th year option as well.   With this trade the Rams have traded out of 5 straight first rounders from 2017-2021.   Short term gain and long term pain, bad idea and no I wouldn't give up 2 1st's (and a 4th) for a db.
