The most-mock-drafted player to the Vikings posts RB numbers. He’s a DE.
From a scout at Michigan today

As of now, Vikings don’t have the cash for Clowney or Ingram, per Wolfson.
$$ is lacking for those pass rushers.

But Forrest Lamp is still in play.
Seems so.

Oh, boy. Spielman is at BYU for some reason.
#Vikings GM Rick Spielman is in attendance for BYU's pro-day today.

Perspective.
Interesting stuff in @fboutsiders' annual Adjusted Games Lost analysis: the #Vikings lost the third-most adjusted games in the league on defense (behind only the 49ers and Patriots) after being the healthiest team in the league in 2019.

Ragatz is perplexed by the BYU trip.
Interesting that Spielman chose BYU’s pro day today over Michigan and Virginia Tech. Keep an eye on BYU OL Brady Christensen and how well he tests. Maybe Rick felt like there wasn’t as much observation that needed to be done on prospects like Kwity Paye and Christian Darrisaw. https://t.co/oysLxSf7jM

Marvin Jones mixes it up with a Vikings troll.
😭😭 underrated tweet right here. 36 tds w/ lions but your 11 is correct. I will miss y’all, hopefully we’ll see each other again one day but it’s time to be someone else’s nightmare 👹 https://t.co/8AjCumFTwq

An article about Mason Cole.
Mason Cole struggled in two full seasons as the Cardinals' center.
Coming to Minnesota, where he'll move to guard and compete for a starting job, could benefit him greatly. His two 2019 starts at LG are a reason to be optimistic about this low-risk move. https://t.co/BqnAP0UpX1

Everybody’s socks blew off on Friday because of this man.
OT Brady Christensen… Whoa
6'6 302lbs
40: 4.89u
Broad: 10'4
Vertical: 34"
Bench: 30 reps3 year starter at LT
2500+ Snaps
1st Team All-American via @PFFIt's a deep OT class – but make sure you're watching them all! Christensen is a stud and perfect fit for a OZ/WZ team

Reid is also keeping an eyes on the man — and you should, too.
Many eyes will be on Zach Wilson at BYU’s pro day today, but there’s a lot of evaluators excited to see how OT Brady Christensen tests. League is higher on him than the media.

An absolutely seismic NFL transaction.
Breaking: #Dolphins are trading the No. 3 pick to the #49ers for the No. 12 pick, a 2021 3rd-rounder and first-rounders in 2022 and 2023, per @AdamSchefter.

Glover says Spielman lacks some body parts.
Rick doesn't have the stones to make that kind of deal. https://t.co/COgMUX8ICZ

Nick Olson on PP.
Excellent work here from @NickOlsonNFL. Fans (like many coaches) get too concerned with what a player can't do. Smart coaches will figure out what a player can do and adjust accordingly. As Shurm used to say, it's about the players, not the plays. #Skolhttps://t.co/gKIpfim5EN

Simms with a bizarre Jones endorsement.
49ers-Dolphins…Kyle Shanahan trying to control his own fate. You trade up to 3 for a QB who is NFL-ready right now, not a project. And to me that says Mac Jones.
— Chris Simms (@CSimmsQB) March 26, 2021
Kirk is the bonafide QB1 for 2021 per Wolfson.
Like many weeks ago, I see Kirk right here for 2021.

Often a Vikings victim, he’s in legal trouble.

Chatter arises about Hughes potential non-presence on the 2021 roster.
If the #Vikings waive Mike Hughes, they would be eating the $648,076 of his $1,825,566 base salary that is guaranteed for 2021. The rest of the dead money comes from his prorated signing bonus he got from 2018. https://t.co/mtsNH54Zq4
