Pick 12 - Noah Fant TE
Pick 30 - Erik McCoy G/C

Pick 12 - Ed Oliver DE/DT
Pick 30 - A.J. Brown WR

Most interesting to me is how our picks are all over the board. There's mocks going for Noah Fant at 12, with him going to us at 30 and mocks that don't even have him as a first rounder. I imagine he'll go somewhere between our first and second pick. He's just too good to stick around 'till 30.

What all but one have in common is that we're picking a receiving option in round 1. I hope Gute is thinking the same thing. I'd love to see us pick a guy like Campbell if we trade down or even take a shot at Metcalf.

I wouldn't be that happy with A.J. Brown at 30 as a couple of these mocks have us picking. I don't feel like we need another guy with a good frame, ball skills and hands, but who can't seperate. I'd rather go Marquise Brown. The exact opposite. That'd really open up the offense, combined with the guys we already have on the roster.

I'm not sure what people see in that DK Metcalf. He didn't tear it up vs college kids, what makes us think he's gonna tear it up vs professionals? He reminds me of another Matt Jones.

He's nowhere near a certain pick, but that alone does elevate him above a guy like Matt Jones or Darrius Heyward-Bey. The question remains if he's ever going to put it all together, but there's a pretty good article here  that shows that he'll most likely be productive, if you use him right.

Metcalf maybe 2nd, but I think even that's a gamble. I wasn't too impressed by the highlights I saw.

Hockenson or Fant? I have not decided. Hockenson out-produced Fant but Fant has better measurables. Either way I am not sure I want a TE at 12 unless he is heads and shoulders better.
As for #12 I am not sure, maybe Cody Ford if he's available. That gives him a year to develop before he takes over.

WPR wondered

Hockenson out-produced Fant but Fant has better measurables...I have not decided. Hockenson out-produced Fant but Fant has better measurables

I am more interested in whether a guy can effectively and willingly stick his nose in a linebacker’s face and try and block him. I would much prefer Hockenson.

That notwithstanding, I still would probably not take a tight end at 12....30 perhaps.

He was widely considered the #1 Te until fant ran his 40 in 4.51. Then suddenly can't went from 2nd or 3rd best to 1 in some drafts/eyes. TJ all the way.
BAD EMAIL because the address couldn ot be found, or is unable to receive mail.

I'd take either tight end with our #30 and pass on both at #12.

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact
Martha Careful (6-Jan) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy
