I was just pleased I DIDN’T have to take him. I believe that with Payton, that Wilson is going to excel in 2023. We know what Goff is, and I believe Wilson has better WRs to throw to. Oh well…. guess we’ll see. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ICEMAN 41 Posted June 20, 2023 Picket was the other QB that I was looking at, Shovel. I just liked Carr's weapons a lot more that Picket's. ICEMAN Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ICEMAN To be honest, not sure how I feel about him. Wanted Rogers a couple rounds ago but he has the same bye as Burrow. Goff was next but he got snagged.

Vikings4ever 531 Posted June 21, 2023 Moore's got a lot of talent, and has good buzz coming out. If Watson can return to form, he's a good candidate to break out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vikings4ever 531 Posted June 21, 2023 Foreman's not a flashy pick or anything, but he looks to be a stable presence in my RBs that all have some risk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WhiteWonder 2,369 Posted June 21, 2023 Wanted Stafford. Settled for Love just to be done with the position with one of the few remaining options I feel good will be starting weekly. Juwan Johnson I am high on this season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

robb 78 Posted June 21, 2023 Fumble sniped.the player right before me, had his name typed in! Would have made a great stack with Wilson as his QB. now, I’ll try the best Rookie TE. He should have a few games where he scores double digit points and he has Allen as his QB. I had another TE I thought of, but same bye as Njoku. Maybe Kincaid is Allen’s Kelce to Mahomes!

Dan 62 Posted June 21, 2023 Chase Claypool is a bit of an enigma this year, with questions all over the place. But his numbers at the end of the year suggest that he's got potential. And here's the kicker. Justin Fields is being drafted as the #7 QB (ish). Moore gets the publicity, but Claypool - once he's on the field, has a big upside. I'll take it as a #5.

worm 36 Posted June 22, 2023 Nice pick, Fumble. I would have picked Warren next if he was there. The QB run caught me off guard and I hated to be at the back end of it, but I felt like there was a drop off coming and was OK with Stafford there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't trust that passing offense to produce enough for the 3 WR's there, of which I think Claypool will be 3rd in the pecking order... possibly 4th if we count Kmet. But I do agree, he has the big upside, which plays nice in a best ball. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shovelheadt 68 Posted June 22, 2023 Hate picking a guy with 2 knee surgeries on a crap passing team, but OBJ is worth the risk at this point. If he has a few monster games great. If he falls off a cliff…go Bengals. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WhiteWonder 2,369 Posted June 22, 2023 I hope Irv smith can finally realize his potential this year. He will definitely be a frequent TE2 target of mine in real drafts with his upside in the bengals offense. I was hoping Van Jefferson would make it back to me. He had good chemistry with Stafford in 2021 if I’m remembering correctly and he now has a clear path to the WR2 role. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vikings4ever 531 Posted June 22, 2023 I normally like getting a high end QB2... things didn't fall that way this draft. I think Young is the most likely QB left to start and end the season (and has at least SOME weapons on offense). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vikings4ever 531 Posted June 22, 2023 Probably not going to have 11 TDs again this year, but then again... TE is a crapshoot, might as well chance one who is given regular opportunities to score. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WhiteWonder 2,369 Posted June 22, 2023 My Self Analysis Maybe this belongs in Fumble's analysis thread. Might move it there... but as this draft wraps up and I am left needing only my DST and Kicker, I figured it was as good a time as any to analyze what I did from the 10th spot. QB: Trevor Lawrence, Jordan Love RB: Nick Chubb, Josh Jacobs, Alexander Mattison, Joe Mixon WR: Tyler Lockett, Kadarius Toney, Michael Thomas, Allen Lazard, Van Jefferson, Romeo Doubs TE: George Kittle, Juwan Johnson Possibly an unpopular opinion / hot take but Nick Chubb is my #1 overall in standard scoring formats. I was elated to get him 10th. With less competition for touches on a team I still expect to run quite a bit but be a better offense as a whole, I'm all in. If i'm being honest, I probably would have made a different selection at 2.3, had I known the quality of RB available to me in rounds 3 and 4. It was tough to pass on Garrett Wilson and CeeDee Lamb at the time but I talked myself into RB under the initial assumption that i'd be happier with the receivers in rounds 3 and 4. Then we actually got to 3.10 and I was proven wrong. There was WR talent that I like (Metcalf, Allen, Jeudy) but Mattison and Mixon were too good to pass up. I was back and forth on both at 3.10, so having Mixon fall to 4.03 meant I was going to be in for a unique draft Rounds 5 and 6 presented me with another interesting decision. I knew I would be losing out on some receivers I liked (McLaurin, Godwin, Kirk) but at that point, it seemed like much better value to grab a TE and QB who I feel can be top 2 and top 5 respectively at their positions this season. Kittle is not without risk and I am likely higher on Lawrence than most but I think addressing these positions at this point in the draft made my overall roster stronger with much higher upside. ...which brings us to the forgotten WR's. My WR group last year wound up being absolutely awful, even with Garrett Wilson picked late. While this group won't turn any heads, it certainly can't produce any worse than my 2022 bunch. I expect Lockett to have 1 more season of a relatively high floor, despite the addition of JSN. Toney has tremendous upside. Thomas was great in his whopping 3 games last season and gets a QB upgrade. Lazard should benefit from familiarity with Rodgers and defensive attention toward Wilson. Jefferson looks to be the #2 for Stafford and Doubs, from reports, seems to be clicking with Love. That is the good but there are certainly risks with each and every one and that helped play into my decision to go with a 4/6 split at RB/WR rather than a 5/5. I love Johnson as a 2nd TE. I think Carr can help him take the next step. I don't LOVE Love as a QB2... basically a rookie with learning experience and some decent weapons on offense. Overall, I like the team despite the unique approach. As mentioned, If I had a mulligan it would have been pick 2.3. Chubb, Mattison and Mixon would have been a perfectly great trio at RB and Wilson or Lamb would have made for a much more palatable WR core. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
