FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Vikings. Every other box got a look, but quarterback did not. The Vikings will head to camp with the same hole they walked in with. The bottom line is a respectable B.
The cost of the Fortune reach is exactly the players who went right after him. The Emmanwori value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.
Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick31
Rnd1
Nick Emmanwori
In the Round 1 slot they get a ballhawk on the back end at a price that makes it sweeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick66
Rnd3
Donovan Jackson
No edge and no loss on Donovan Jackson in slot 66; it is a wash and a sensible one. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick97
Rnd3
Gunnar Helm
Gunnar Helm at pick 97 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick139
Rnd5
O'Donnell Fortune
O'Donnell Fortune at the 139th pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick187
Rnd6
Jarquez Hunter
They took Jarquez Hunter at par in Round 6, Pick 11, which is nothing to complain about. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
