Mel is mad because he had Turner at 8 in his final mock. We did better than anyone expected. I’m excited for the future…

[@grahamchristianson869]

Kwesi absolutely cooked... 🔥

[@robertharrie4513]

The Vikings also did a great job with UDFAs

[@debsmith7861]

Can't know that yet. Don't judge 24 off of Pace jr. Wait and see. The OT and DT have some major weaknesses on scouting rpts. Hoping for the very best though.

[@robertharrie4513]

@@debsmith7861 true but you judge UDFA classes by who can make the roster and not necessarily who will start right away. If any of these guys make the 53 man roster it’s a win and it looks like they have 4 or 5 guys who could either make the 53 or 90 man roster

[@sudoCompetence]

​@@robertharrie4513this. If they make the roster at all it's a dub

[@tuckerkline4142]

Really happy we ended up with JJ. Not a fan of Maye. His lack of mid field pass accuracy was absolutely not going to fit in our system. JJ is Tailor made for KOC!

[@florencedahl3617]

KAM really did an excellent job of making deals and it was absolutely fantastic cooking

[@DustyRay88]

So jacked that Alec Lewis is apart of VEN! Huge fan of all of his spots on other podcasts! Oh and great writer too

[@GuitarmanNoah]

He’s definitely one of my favs on 9-noon on KFan

[@deanmentjes7774]

Good video, thanks

[@TimHills-ln3xg]

B- for turner is he on something.how do u not give that a A+

[@nikkicovington6389]

I would say it was an interesting NFL Draft for the Minnesota Vikings

[@igoddard1]

As usual, Mel Kiper's talking out of his backside.

[@timtorkelson7201]

Mel? Meh!!

[@oz8063]

Back in the 90s, almost no know knew that Texas A&I existed until DT John Randle 👌#93 got drafted. Now it's known as Texas A&M, Levi Drake Rodriguez LDR will be another John Randle to reckon with! SKOL

[@Mofuk]

John Randle was undrafted

[@oz8063]

7th round, it's pretty much the undrafted and undrated.

[@yeahsureyoubetcha4684]

Grading draft picks is so dumb. We'll see in a couple years. Grade then.

[@jadenbarry6012]

Facts so true we have to wait until the class fully shows you what they put on tape it's pointless to grade this early you can grade how we feel with what they aquired.

[@debsmith7861]

Of course.

[@davidnelson6874]

It was a decent draft. The UDFA class might have some gems. I’m cautiously optimistic.

[@nathancollins69]

Hates suck it! If any other team picked these 2 in the 1st rd the would be drooling!

[@ryannewazada2102]

KAM had a fantastic Free-Agency and a great draft. Welcome aboard JJ McCarthy and Dallas Turner.

[@scottfisher352]

Mel thought Chris Doleman was a day 2 pick … does that tell you anything?

[@SkolBuddy420]

Kwesi is not only the Vikings GM, he is a Michelin star chef 😤

[@clintonreisig]

We are grading on the DRAFT, not the players themselves

[@oz8063]

JJ McCarthy he will be competing for the starting job. Since they all this summer to practiced and they have preseason games. So if he starts the as QB1, it's because he earned it. I wouldn't be surprised if the vikings start him as the season opener as Qb1. SKOL!

[@Selling-McCarthyism]

Really wanted Wingo at 177 and Mahogany at 203. Let’s hope those two guys don’t make an impact for the Lions. (Yes, both of those guys who were in the top 100 consensus board went to the Lions)

[@arvieweathers294]

So what your complaining about late rd picks players over what we don't period? Complaining ass fanbase for team to never had won a superbowl Vikings fanbase is so hard to please like we have a standard in winning superbowls so u know when we miss out on guy u had in your draft book#12 but Vikings took 22# in your draft book. Hahaha crying ass fanbase

[@robe2504]

I'm more worried about Davenport - they signed him for about $3m. If the Vikes re-signed him for that they would have gained 2m in cap space after signing him - basically a free player. If he has a healthy season opposite Hutchinson, that would be a problem.

[@eddiejones974]

I Think the Vikings got 4 Starters JJ,mccarthy dallas Turner kyreeJackson,@Will Richard kicker

[@joshnewman6667]

Fresh body ready to slaughter on 3rd down

[@Tr4v3ler]

#1 Gabe restart your YT content, please! #2 Ignore Keiper JR., he said Vikes won day 1, then flipped on day 3 to say we sold the farm, which he would have known on day 1.

[@ForceOfNorse]

Alec Lewis is that "every dude" that you KNOW never played the game.

[@jweezy2912]

I don't see it with McCarthy🤷‍♂

[@TimHills-ln3xg]

Stole kyree 4th round 108 6'4 Stole him also defensive were so much better

[@haydenwayne8337]

Mel kiper has always been a hater A+ draft

[@aricstradtmann9972]

Imma be honest as a gophers and Vikings fan i wasn’t to sure about jj because I don’t fallow Michigan unless they play the Gophers and he whooped the Gophers but our defense and offense was so terrible this year so based off what people said i wasn’t to sold on him at first definitely thought he was over hyped because he won the natty when if you take In account Blake corrum and the defense i wasn’t sure if he was getting to much credit for being the reason they won 15 games but now i definitely think he was a good pick just hope he works out and we start winning superbowls

[@drewblake5389]

First off Keiper has been wrong so many times and speaks w such arrogance know hes been wrong but hey he gets paid for his opinion - its early we dont know how it’ll pan out - 1 - McCarthy - i think it was evident that they wouldve rather have obviously jayden and even drake over JJ but if KOC is stoked to have him I am as well - i didnt want him cuz of small hands 9” i think he pushed that ruler down into his knuckle for that one (guys you know what im talkin about 😂) but josh allen also has small hands 9.25” - we have a too ten o line and run game should be better w mattison out who lost us multiple games w his multiple fumbles - plus JJ got 2nd throw strength behind Milton so Im all in - hes got good size at 220 - and also dont judge the man by his outfit lookin like a kid w loosened tie whatnot - we’ve seen plenty of well dressed players who turned out to be POSs - judge him by his work ethic which we know he has . 2 - Turner shouldve been first d player off board by Falcons who finished bottom 5 in pass rush - great way to follow up addressing a proven qb to get a big time rusher athlete at 8 !!! Hilarious! I love it ! Karma to kirk for not staying loyal to his teammates and Minnesota who initially dropped the bag on him and believed in him - i did at least… speaking of loyalty ill never get tired of praising Hitman for staying on even though he couldve easily retired - i think he was excited to return and olay for Flores again on a unique defense where hes utilized properly- and hopefully he returns as a coach his work ethic exercise body/ injury maintenance is amazing hes a football freak and so happy he’ll retire a viking which you rarely see these days - back to turner who has very little injury problems vs luiatu who comes in w a neck surgery - i hope he does well but im very happy the way our defense looks - our dline looks thin but i trust Flores - i think Kwesi is haunted and learned from last year passing up on hamilton and instead traded up for the guy rhey wanted - i was surprised we didnt get a wr nor rb in a deep draft especially with talented rbs falling in drafts these days - but again I trust and it must mean they are happy with our depth- hopefully mccbride is coming along which i doubt but its only been a year - trust the process! SKOL !!!
