It would be sort of ironic if Fran Foley's only draft as GM turned out 3-4 quality starters. From last years draft we already have 5 starters: Greenway, Griffin, Cook, Jackson, and Edwards.

We dont know who could take full responsability for the trinity of power. But we did get a handful of good draft picks, as well as the Hutch move, the taylor move and the lebar move.

btw, Greg Blue might not be a starter yet, but he showed some nice things last year.

I still remember how many people on this board (actually on the Twolves board) were angry with the Vikings horrible draft last year. It looks a lot better right now.

I think it was more being upset with how they managed their picks than who they actually picked. Ryan Cook and TJax'll be the key to how that draft actually turns out. Ray Edwards has been a beast so far this pre-season, though.

yea, we liked the guys but felt they were drafted early. I never heard of cook or Tjax either. But edward/blue made me very happy
