Caleb Williams names Vikings as one of just 5 teams he’d like to play for.
“The reigning Heisman Trophy winner has continued to show why he is the top prospect this year, throwing for over 1,600 yards and 21 touchdowns with just one interception in five games so far. He is also already appearing in some commercials and advertisements, as the NIL deals in college sports, allowing a player of his stature to make great money.
And that ability reportedly has Williams considering remaining in college if the draft order plays out in a certain way. According to NFC North News on X, Williams is only interested in playing for the Raiders, Cowboys, Vikings, Giants or 49ers:”
Interesting.
That's interesting but of those teams he listed, it's highly unlikely that the Vikings are one of the ones in the running for him
Well, it would sure look like a nice spot for a future star QB to transition to the NFL. QB centric Head coach, JJ, Hock, Addison. And nice buildings.

You are probably right, this team will fiddle fuck around and get their 12th to 22nd pick like usual, Kirk will have huge numbers, and everyone will say how close the team is, and we will grab another DB and move onto 24 with hyper anticipation for what will likely be another middling team. Sigh.

Gotta suck if you're a Bears fan.

Maybe the Giants and Raiders? Or maybe within range for a move-up that doesn't cost the farm? Vikings. It looks like Cowboys and 49'ers are drafting at the tail end.

I'm not some college QB genius and I didn't stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night but that Michigan QB, McCarthy, might be a good pick.
Cant he pout his way to another team like Eli?

That's my guy. He's like a Josh Allen lite, IMO (smaller version). He's got the swagger and athleticism necessary to succeed in the NFL. Big arm.
I wonder if the amount of QB talent stacking up for this draft will get some of the underclassmen to stay one more year instead of maybe being that guy that falls to the third round.

OK, but his feet are a mess on this throw...
So many little things go unnoticed about #UNC QB Drake Maye. One of his best traits is noticing unusual pre-snap looks/blitzes.

He sees this one all the way, angle drops away from the pressure to buy time and makes a great touch throw. pic.twitter.com/QtqoQt5mmj
