    Vikings gonna steal DeJean from us?
    I can't run no more
    With that lawless crowd
    While the killers in high places
    Say their prayers out loud
    But they've summoned, they've summoned up
    A thundercloud
    They're going to hear from me - Leonard Cohen

      May even have been the truth, but considering that it's the Vikings I hope it isn't. And they got pantsed.
      Nah, do you really think they believe Rodgers is a long term answer? Two years at best for me. Plus, the price wasn't that high.

        seems like they got the guy they wanted and didn't have to give up a whole lot to do it

          No idea Joe. I don't follow this shit that closely anymore. I will say the lad that was interviewed just now sounded like Muhammad Ali.

                Are you hanging on the Vikings boards tonight? How's the draft going over with all my old friends from when I lived in the Twin Cities? Any strong early reactions?

                        Hey Frozen, I've been here in it's various forms since like 1999 I think. That was JSO Online and good ole Tex was there. No, I am not on any Vikings boards, never found one that had interesting people like here. I like hanging out with you guys.

                            • Byron Murphy II
                              Overview
                              Muscular ball of explosiveness with the tools and talent to become a productive three-down defender in the right scheme. Twitchy first-step quickness combined with flexion and power in his lower half create a recipe for disruption as a gap shooter or as a pass rusher. Murphy is powerful and well-schooled at taking on double-teams but lacks ideal mass and length for that role long-term. He’s successful at bypassing protection with sudden hands and quick feet, while his motor and passion create an activity level coaches will love. Forget the average physical traits and modest production and focus on his competitive spirit and disruptive qualities. Murphy is ascending and could become a successful nose tackle or 3-technique in an even front.

                              Strengths
                              Compact frame carries outstanding lean muscle.
                              Uses twitchy, controlled bursts to light up gaps and disrupt play development.
                              Elite combination of strength, balance and flexible power in his lower half.
                              Quick-strike hands help to maneuver around blocks and chase play development.
                              Pass rush driven by relentless energy and exemplary edge-to-edge quickness.
                              Variety of rush approaches are peppered with fluid transitions and counters.

                              Weaknesses
                              Frame might be close to maxed out.
                              Can be swallowed by size if he doesn’t keep it moving.
                              Lack of arm length forces him to work harder to separate.
                              Could be worn down by NFL double-teams and size.
