Nothing going on here. Two weeks from today we will be arguing about whatever it is that Kwesi did on day 1 of the draft. I am looking forward to that.

Thread Guidelines
- Keep politics to a minimum. We are adults, news happens, and we can talk about it. What we don’t want is to go down rabbit holes and turn a productive conversation into name calling and personal attacks.
- Be respectful and civil. You don’t need to agree with everyone, you also don’t need to make it personal. Attack the argument, not the poster.
- Keep the NSFW language/pictures to a minimum. We don’t want anyone getting in trouble at work for hanging out here.
- To summarize, behave like adults. Treat each other with respect, and things will be fine. Mods will take out content they feel is pushing the boundary. If you want to reach out about something, please do. We want to have robust discussions, that’s why we’re here, just be civil.
- Twitter sized version: Be cool to one another.
40th! wooohooo!
Man, this mock draft got spun into a bunch of picks via trade…
Oh this reminds me i need to do my daily mock….hold please
here’s mine.
i would be satisfied with this.
i have a crush on brashard smith
apparently i can’t post it. probably banned by the NFL for being TOO good of a mock draft
Once again, NoDak was wrong….I was sure we were going to sign Flacco.
the vikings aren’t interested in fossils
I still will not be surprised in the slightest if Aaron shows up in purple.
As long as he is unsigned, it is only one kicked door away…
He might do as well as Dobbs did on short notice…
So much for that idea.
Oh well, welcome back Teddy Bridgewater.
Love Teddy, but I stick with Rypien over Teddy.
Me, too. Angela is more than sufficient.

I’m fine with that, but we usually carry 3, Teddy on practice squad if we don’t draft or steal someone better (I was actually only 1/2 serious anyway).
That is disappointing
Dang it.
Moving on to plan B or C or whatever letter we are on now.
I would hope/expect that the Vikings and his people had a conversation or two prior to this and both sides understood where the other side stood.
YOUR plan B or C, i highly doubt the Vikings are shocked and now don’t know what to do. They have a plan and have stuck to it.
Exactly, the FO may still be on plan A for the QB2 position.
Upset at that news when I woke up this morning. Tannehill or bust. Or a younger backup currently on someone elses roster. Some buddies in my Vikings fans group text were talking about Kirk and I shut that shit down immediately lol
I still have a gut feeling it’s going to be Mayo boy after the draft.
Interesting…
Oooo thats a twist…KOC didnt like him enough to move up and draft him. Whats changed?
this is a nothing burger for me. couldn’t care less if we signed flacco or not. the idea that JJ NEEDS an “older mentor” is a fallacy…he has 2 older mentors in KOC and Mccown.
Good point.
Was Alex Smith a mentor to Mahomes?
Mahomes was fine.
Not a big deal at all.
It will not surprise me if the QB room is JJ/Rypien and some random rookie.
We might start with that but if something disasterous happens I could see us doing something big mid season to adjust.
Going to go off and visit family in Oregon and Commiforna. Will be back in time for the draft #nojinx.
Mom just had her 92nd, not sure how many more times I will be able to see her, got to get one in this spring.
So will be one a little less than usual so someone else will have to ‘step up the snark’.
Will miss your “wisdom” – good ole Army experience stuff. Safe travels and I hope ‘Mon’ is in good health.
Don’t know about ‘wisdom’, I often say that ‘I am witty and well read and that will have to do until Wisdom shows up’.
Mom is holding up ok. Mind is ‘narrowing’ but physically she was ok last time we saw her last year, slowing down certainly but still moving about.
I will get on line occasionally but it may be after most people are done for the day here. We will see.
Safe travels. Make sure you bring your passport so they will let you out of California.
Getting out is not the problem, just blend in with the hordes already at the border.
Say hi to the hippies for us!
Most of the ‘Old Hippies are hanging out in Oregon.
We will say hi while we are there.
Ok, on our way out not.
Don’t get into toooooo many arguments.
#grin
Wow, little ol’ me first ….
We need a FTP to start each and every thread.
So I fixed it for you.
