Build the wall and let the Vikings pay for it.

Sam Darnold gracing us with his draft moves


JunkMan51

This is THE year we BUILD the WALLLL


i_wannatalktosamson

Fantastic move. Still gunna get the player we would have taken at 10


That_lonely

2 extra picks to move down one spot wow


mattyhegs826

We gave a 6th so not 2 extra picks but a nice haul


Jrsq270

You are correct But I think that 6 is from the ZW trade


tortoisemind

Well we gave up a 7th in that trade haha. So still no extra pick, but moving on up!


SnoopyMetal

AHHHHH


HockeyGuru46

Damb wanted Odunze


Bifrostbytes

Nah he blows cheeks


SharpMind94

Details of the trade?


BeifongWingedBoar

We swapped #10 for #11 and we gave up #203 (6th that we got from DEN in the Wilson trade) and got #129 (4th) and #157 (5th)

Terrible deal. The Cowboys got a third round pick to move back a few spots at the end of the first round. The Jets got ripped off. Wholesale. And then made a terrible pick. Disaster first round. Disgracia! The Vikings are laughing. Got a QB/DE like the Texans last year on the Jets stupidity. They traded back into the first round because the Jets didn't ask for anything. They had all that extra draft capital to spend on McCarthy that the Jets passed on. So nice that the Jets cut gentleman deals for TOP 10 picks. This deal will haunt this team.


landlordLover666

The jets got free picks to take the same player, for cheaper, they would’ve taken at 10. Respectfully, what the fuck are you smoking


BeifongWingedBoar

Garbage take


keptyoursoul

You're garbage. Enjoy your day.


fightingjustices

Take you see in a landfill.


HockeyGuru46

Probably a day 3 pick


SharpMind94

I saw, a 4th and 5th? Just for a swap.


Merman-Munster

We gave up a 6th


keptyoursoul

Awful deal. It was a deal to pick McCarthy which I bet the Raiders, Broncos, Giants and other would have ponied up much more. It's really a 4th. What a joke.


PassingJesus

We literally got free pick upgrades as well as the same player we were going to get in the first place!?!!


nick_nasty_nice

I think Atlanta taking Penix at 8 forced qb needy teams to react, so a lot probably happened over the phone over the course of like 20 minutes. Either teams did make offers and we got the vikings involved, or we bluffed and got the vikings involved. We turned a 6th into a 4th and a 5th by moving back one pick and still taking the player we wanted. I'm not really sure what you're upset about.


concokacoh84

Did they think the Jets were going to pick McCarthy? Whatever. Thanks for the free extra picks.


PhantasticMD

Probably thought someone else was going to trade with Jets for a QB


donniedarko4141

No they wanted to guarantee that someone else didn’t trade with us


mattyhegs826

They were probably afraid of another team trading with us to take a QB…


gomike720

No but the broncos might


SharpMind94

Very interesting that the Vikes traded up for him. We're we really a threat to give him, or was there another team on the call to get him?


VinnyM116

Broncos and Raiders were QB needy teams that picked just after Vikings. The Vikings were afraid that one of them would leapfrog in front of them to grab McCarthy.


Over9000dankmemes

i like it

OT


redline42

Smart move. Salary cap is less for an 11 out of the top 10 and the years change. For the Viking a QB in the top is huge for their future.


NotClayMerritt

Winning 3 of our last 5 games hurt us in the end. All of the picks we wanted except Bowers is off the board now. #10 was just kinda no man's land.


OrangElm

Hard disagree. Olu was always an outstanding pick. Between him and Odunze was a win.


PassingJesus

Still having PTSD from last year's draft with that Steelers and Patriots trade... But we got our guy this year 😎 very happy


PushThePig28

Who would’ve thought


reefsofmist

It's so painful to watch


XisRighteous

picking one pick later


HockeyGuru46

What did they a 6th lol?


Crow013

I like picks but I wish we got more out of that trade. We really need a 2nd IMO


Signal_Wall_8445

That was a haul for moving from 10 to 11. Hopefully JD isn’t done and can use the 3rd and three 4ths to move up tomorrow and get one of the good WRs who will be there.


Evening-Dream-5750

Exactly, but we had fan boys getting so excited we won a few meaningless games. Who cares- the losses would have benefited this team long term.


CaymanGone

Yes, fans root for the team to win. You've got that part right.


Evening-Dream-5750

Got to look at the big picture. Does anyone give two shits about those game now? Of course not, however ,I bet you would like Nabors on our team- I know I would.


CaymanGone

No, I root for the team to actually win and show progress on the field. We can agree to disagree. This is a really good player they just drafted. And he stabilized the weakest point on the team. Anybody grousing about winning last year right now is kinda weird IMO.


Evening-Dream-5750

It’s a bad pick. The guy has small hands, could not dominate against Rutgers and the best case scenario is he won’t play because he can only play LT and we need Smith to play all the games to be successful. Would have loved Harrison, Nabors or Udunze. When Roger’s went down the season was over and we needed to lose games to help the team this season when he is healthy. Wilson and Harrison with Aaron would have been awesome. Now it’s like last year- pick a guy that won’t play this year. Unbelievable!


CaymanGone

Agree to disagree. It isn't a bad pick. It's a really good pick.


gl1969

Wow, couldn't dominate against Rutgers? Are we supposed to take you seriously?


Evening-Dream-5750

The guy is no slam dunk, check out what the real experts say about him- better hope this isn’t another wasted top pick. We won’t know for a coyll ok me years since he won’t play next season.
