Who do the Vikings take at 7?

Where they are, they should be able to get one of the elite players in this draft. If they move down, they won't.

Right, which is why I'd take Landry or Peterson. If they do move down they should grab at least two WR's in the first two rounds. Meachem or Bowe and then Smith or Gonzalez in the second.

Peterson's clavical is very much a concern.

I'd take Landry.

I'd take Landry.

Yea, he's a very safe pick and a helluva player.

[Tarlam!]

Oakland takes CJ
Detroit goes with Thomas, because after CJ, he is the best on the board.
Cleveland takes Quinn, despite the Russel Connection.
Tampa trades with Miami who takes Russel, because Al Davis previously traded for Culpepper.
Arizona trade with Buffalo, so Buffalo gets Peterson.

Thus, throw all Mock Drafts out the window.

[Guiness]

Seven safeties, eh? Didn't know that.

I'd have guess LL, but that sheds doubt on it. I still think he'll be the BPA with that pick.

[BallHawk]

Actually, Tarlam, the thought of an Arizona-Buffalo trade is very intriguing. I hadn't thought that possibility over before.

[Cheesehead Craig]

I think they'd like to move down but I'd be happy with either Peterson or Landry. They do have 7 safetys but they don't have alot of money tied up, they could cut any one of them without much of a hit I'm guessing. Sharper's signing bonus is getting long in the tooth at last.

They have 7 safeties under contract, but Landry is better than 5-6 of them now. The Vikes have that many as they are trying to find someone that can cover.

Yup......I think all but Sharper carry no real cap implications if they get cut. Plus, while Tank Williams and Mike Doss aren't that old, only Greg Blue is a real young guy.

Only way it would happen is if Thomas is gone

[HarveyWallbangers]

If they take Landry, he better be better than all 7.

It'd be hard for him not to be. :P

I'd say he most likely would be. The dude is pretty amazing.

[b bulldog]

He would be a great fit

We'll see. They said the same about Michael Huff and Roy Williams. Huff has good potential, but he didn't stand out last year. Williams is just decent at this point (great hitter, poor cover safety). It's a crapshoot, so for those thinking he's can't miss, I'd say let it play out. The only can't misses in this draft, IMHO, are Johnson, Thomas, and Peterson (if he stays healthy). The only safety in the last several years that I thought was can't miss was Sean Taylor.
