Bump & Run: Biggest Draft Needs

By Sam Neumann

Hello, friends. I’m back. I’ve reclaimed my guest bedroom studio just in time for draft week, and am excited to bring you this draft preview edition of Bump & Run.

In this episode, I explain why we can and should still get excited about the draft, despite the Vikings not having a first round pick. I also discuss why drafting for need is not the enemy, and how every NFL team does in fact consider need when drafting. Plus, I give my top three draft needs for the Vikings, which are:

  1. Ham
  2. Running Back
  3. Linebacker

All this plus the general hijinks you’ve come to know and love expect. Click the thumbnail above or watch on YouTube here. Thanks for watching!

  • Sadly, Remmers and Rieff are DEFINITELY getting hurt at the exact same time. If nothing else, we Vikings fans can extract some peace from knowing we can never, ever have nice things.

  • Feeney has concussion history, and after the issues with Fusco last year, I'm not convinced he's the right guy for the Vikings.
