The Vikings have had a very solid to very good draft so far, taking 4 players.  Going into the Draft they had 5 selections in the first 3 days.

So Rick traded away #105, a comp pick and he has 13 picks today.  Nobody can say the Vikings day 3 picks are worthless, with players like Ifeadi (7) Morgan (6) Weatherly (7) Jayron Kearse (7) Diggs (5) Shamar Stephan (7) all taken well into day 3.  

Yesterday Rick said he would be aggressive and last night in his presser he said he tried to move up in the 3rd but couldn't find a team that was willing to trade.  He also said that he won't be trading back today and he would look to move up or turn some of these 2020 picks into 2021.  

So lets put some of these emotions in check, this is not a repeat of 2019 with 4 trades down in the third, he trade 1 comp pick and has lots of picks to use today.

Look at the board remaining, lots of talent out there that will compete for roster spots.

People sleep peacably at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.
