Ha, the commish just banned cameras from filming Quinn in the green room.
Good Call! Why torture the guy.....
yep, good idea.
DRAFT IDEA
FOR EACH PICK QUINN FALLS PAST THE VIKINGS HIS GAL FRIEND SHOULD TAKE A PIECE OF ATTIRE OFF
What happens when he drops to the bottom of the round? Maybe his sister begins?
she looks too much like a man for me..

7. Minnesota Vikings
The pick: Adrian Peterson, RB, Oklahoma
Scouts take: This is another example of a team making the right decision by trumping need with value. While the Vikings have more pressing needs at several other positions including defensive end and running back Adrian Peterson is too good to pass up on. Peterson is a tough runner who can pick up yards between the tackles and break tackles when he gets into the open field. He has the burst to turn the corner, make the first defender miss and turn on the jets when he gets a seam.
Oklahoma admittedly didn't throw to Peterson much but he has shown signs of developing into a quality receiver. Of course there are the durability issues. However, Minnesota already has Chester Taylor on the roster so they wont have to lean on Peterson as much as a lot of other teams would have had they taken them.
8. Atlanta Falcons
Pick acquired from Houston
The pick: Jamaal Anderson, DE, Arkansas
Scouts take: Chances are Anderson wasn't the Falcons' first choice, as they need to get a safety that can make an impact this year. They were also reportedly hoping to get one of the top two offensive tackles if they didn't take a safety. But with Landry, Thomas and Brown off the board, Atlanta did well to get decent value and fill their need at defensive end here. Anderson certainly needs to get more consistent and he doesn't have elite athletic ability.
However, he is a relentless pass rusher who has good closing speed and can deliver the big hits when he gets to the quarterback, which should soften the blow of losing Patrick Kerney. Atlanta's run defense should benefit from getting Anderson. Anderson has the size to hold his ground against the run and the upper body strength to shed blocks quickly once he learns how to use his hands a little better.
