Vikings Thought of the Day

I've seen a lot of bitching - a LOT - about how the Vikings need to "trade up" and "pick the right guy right away".

Look.

It's not about the highest pick.  The reason the Detroit Loins have Calvin Johnson is because he was there at #2 when the Oakland Raiders took JaMarcus Russell #1.  It's about the RIGHT pick in the RIGHT spot at the RIGHT time.

Hell, even the right trade.  Remember how we got Jared Allen?
The Steelers and the Patriots almost always do well, so they invariably get "bad" (aka, low) picks, and somehow they keep getting studs and keep winning and keep performing!

Do you know WHY?

It's because they have good quarterbacks, that's why.

Same with Green Bay.  They lost Rodgers, and look what happened?  A demoralized Vikings team tied them!

The Vikings are exactly 3 players away from contending for the #1 spot in the NFC North: a QB, an MLB and an OLB.

I say we can get all of those.

We just need STUDS. 

And I say we can get those.


SKOL!
