Coleman was UDFA and made little difference in the passing game, was primarily a blocker.

Meach was decent, but that was back in 2007.

I just get the feeling that Payton doesnt value that position early and seems to think it can be sorted via UDFA. Then there we are again, eliminated from the playoffs because no one outside of Thomas can get open.
In the offense you can't discuss WR without mentioning a Running Back. It's true. Kamara is a top WR for us. That was the intention with trading up to get him.

Think of the trade this way. We didn't have a 3rd. We traded our 5, 6 and 7 to move up into the 3rd to get a TE that may be an absolute Gronk like stud.

I'm not all that upset about losing a 5th, 6th and 7th rounder if you have a really deep roster to start with.

If we were rebuilding I'd be a lot more pissed off.

I like the pick but that is a lot to give up no matter how you look at it.

If things stand as they are, this is crazy.
Vikings have 13 draft picks remaing.
Saints have 0.

🤨

If many of those make the Vikings squad, doesn't that tell you something about their current?

Not really. With 13 picks, the Vikings can afford to take chances and be flat out wrong on 75% of their choices and nail the remaining 25%. I can see that being advantageous!

I'll bet you none of those 13 picks turns into a player better than any of the three we already have.
