Minnesota Vikings News and Links: The Vikings Were Wise To Stay Put At 24 In The Draft

Now that the draft is over and it has been analyzed ad nauseum, we can see the picture of this “time horizon” that Kwesi speaks of often. Many of the Draft Doofi believed the Vikings were going to trade down. Yet they did not. It is fairly obvious the reason why. Two of the top three interior offensive linemen had been selected already. They did not want to miss out on the other one. It is debatable which guard should have been ranked as the best but system fit is more important than rankings. Maybe you could argue a trade down with the Giants (if it was offered) would have resulted in the Vikings taking Jonah Savaiinaea at 34.
