Well, that would certainly shore up the iDL. Get those two pending restructures done and figure out the comp. Might not be as steep as you think.

His money (and trade demand) will keep the trade comp down. I wonder if we can get him for #49 and some change.

I agree Lawrence is a unicorn and only 28...But he's going to command TOP $ at his position and they gotta do something down the road with big $ at QB. Be that JJM or KM
I really dont want to lose that 2nd rd pick this year...So many roster needs and we havent had a #2 for how many years now?
Dont know if the Gmen need an Edge?? I know they got the kid from Penn St last year.
We might have one to trade - not for straight-up, but maybe we thrown in a 3rd day pick???
Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!

I kinda see it like Kyler Murray. You put Sexy Dexy on a Flo defense with Redmond, Greenard, Gink and Turner, to hell with the money, we'll figure that out after the Super Bowl.

Clemson did Woods no favors in how they deployed him in 25. I think the 24 version is closer to what we could expect to see.

I think a lot of the Clemson players are getting dinged by the bad year. Klubnik is a guy who intrigues me. I don't think we will or even should take a QB, but if he and Woods came out last year, they'd be going a lot higher.
You're not going to get Aaron Donald with Woods, but I think he's got a really high floor.

Will the Vikings add some vitamin C to their D?

Ding Adofo-Mensah for his drafts if you wish, but the primary reason for his dismissal was his inability to meld the personnel staff’s vision with the coaching staff’s preferences. Differences of opinion on specific players and situations furthered an early disconnect.
If we draft a big fatty, this gets confirmed. The Big Citrus, the Godfather, find one and pair him with Woods perhaps or a vet. Definitely needs to be addressed.
