Let's assume all of the big names are gone including Prince who I would love to fall in our lap and of course in this scenario Locker is gone as well. That would probably mean either Tyron Smith or Julio Jones would be on the board (though McShay says the Rams will trade up around 8-10 to get Jones). Jimmy Smith is an interesting candidate but a late-riser who I bet turns out like all of the good (not great) corners that we already have. Julio, Tyron, and Jimmy are all plausible options, but none I'd be in favor of. C Pouncey fills a need and DT Liuget fills a future need but 12 is a little high for them.<br /><br />With no trade down, we should take BPA who IMO is DE Da'Quan Bowers knee injury and all. He could be an absolute beast! This is the one scenario I see the Vikes taking a DE in the first round.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6693148938941266793.post-18011616305375711362011-04-21T11:15:48.608-04:002011-04-21T11:15:48.608-04:00I think you could get a guy like Dalton or Ponder ...I think you could get a guy like Dalton or Ponder in the 2nd round. Let's say the Redskins do take Locker and the Vikes don't trade out. Who is your guy? Would they go Pouncey? Seems a little high for him. What about Julio Jones? No guarantee Sidney Rice is sticking around. Don't think the Texans will pass on Prince. Maybe they look at Jimmy Smith. Greg Cosell has him as the best CB in the draft. I have a feeling he goes higher than where I have him.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6693148938941266793.post-9520385793482059982011-04-21T10:34:21.818-04:002011-04-21T10:34:21.818-04:00Of course, very good mock draft with nice commenta...Of course, very good mock draft with nice commentary.<br /><br />I'll just comment on the Vikings pick: at this point I see the Vikings reaching for Locker. There are talks of the Redskins taking him at 10, and I fear (and probably the Vikings too) that a trade down would risk losing Locker.<br /><br />There are a lot of mocks with the Vikings taking a DE. I understand that at #12, a DE would probably be BPA. I also understand that Ray Edwards will leave, but I have a couple of objections. The Vikes have solid backups in contract-extended Brian Robison and upstart Everson Griffen. Plus there are so many DE's with first round grades that it would make sense to trade down in such a situation. That is what the Vikings should do if Locker is off the board.<br /><br />Ideal Vikings draft IMO:<br />1st round - QB<br />2nd round - interior OL (because we suck there) or interior DL (because we're old there)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6693148938941266793.post-74119488646379593902011-04-20T23:32:17.713-04:002011-04-20T23:32:17.713-04:0019 linemen in the 1st round, and i'd believe i...19 linemen in the 1st round, and i'd believe it.Jonathan Liedlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09825647007632838254noreply@blogger.com
