Let me begin by explaining that I know the Vikings don’t currently have a second round pick in the upcoming NFL draft. The Yannick Ngakoue trade — though initially exciting — did not work out well. In fact, it worked out so poorly that both trades – the one bringing him in and the one sending him out – now appear to be mistakes. In any case, the end result is less draft capital.
Let me also suggest that our old friend Slick Rick has some clear tendencies. One could reasonably conclude that Spielman has struggled to identify QB talent over the years.
