Today is the day. Anybody got predictions? I'll say Brandon Scherff or if he's not there, we'll trade down.

Ereck Flowers if he's there.

Scherff
Parker
Peters
In that order.
Here is my dream draft scenario.
With the 11th pick we grab Scherff.
At 24 we trade AP to the Cardinals for their first rounder. With the 24th we take Marcus Peters (if he falls)
Second round Shaq Thompson, and third round best running back. BPA after.
I do believe AP gets traded

Paul Allen predicted Trae Waynes. Considering Paul Allen predicted Anthony Barr last year, you have to consider the possibility that he has a legitimate inside source.

True, but from everything I've read and based what Iceness said it is smokescreen. I really don't want Trae, even though I am optimistic Zimmer can maximize his potential.

La'el Collins is dropping off draft boards because of a murder investigation. It seems he is innocent as he is currently not a suspect. If we could draft Peters at 11 and then trade AP to the Cards and draft Collins, that would fill two huge holes.

scherff went higher than i would have thought

i was big on waynes a few weeks ago but people have soured on him so i don't know anymore, my opinion on these things (players i know nothing about) often go with the changes in the wind

We're on the clock. Parker or Waynes I would guess.

Post #71 » by **Worm Guts** » Fri May 1, 2015 1:20 am

Trae Waynes

hermes · Post #72 » by **hermes** » Fri May 1, 2015 1:23 am

so its waynes after all

i don't know, i'm alright with it - zimmer will work his magic and he'll be great

hermes · Post #73 » by **hermes** » Fri May 1, 2015 1:23 am

plus he's got a great name

hermes · Post #74 » by **hermes** » Fri May 1, 2015 1:27 am

so no trading back, i'm thinking we might be done for the night

rick said he was trading out of 11 so going by the rule of rick doing the opposite of what he says, we're done. only thing left would be an adrian trade

I like the measurables, I like drafting a corner, I don't like that Viking fan draftniks seem to hate the pick.

Post #76 » by **Worm Guts** » Fri May 1, 2015 2:10 am

The draft set up well for trading Peterson if we want, with Gordon and Gurley going early.

Twolf16 · Post #77 » by **Twolf16** » Fri May 1, 2015 2:24 am

Zimmer said he likes high character guys, so Trae and not Peters. I trust Zimmer can work his magic, but I'm not a fan of the pick.

No AP trade, makes me very sad.

i'm glad we didn't trade him, because i think he's going to be good this year and he might as well be on our team

and because i want to see how this plays out at this point (even though i hate having distractions like this)

Twolf16 · Post #80 » by **Twolf16** » Fri May 1, 2015 4:01 am

Worst part is we need a guard, and there is only one big name left who is being questioned about a murder. I hope we can get either Collins (LSU, if he is innocent) or Kendrick's ILB from UCLA
