This has been my first choice for a few months now

Commented on Haynes: Blazers Eye Trade Up For Indiana G Victor Oladipo? on May 18 2013, 6:20p

I've been saying this for awhile - my first choice is to trade up (if they land at 10) and select Oladipo

Never like to see teams move, but felt Seattle deserved a team...but perhaps notat the expense of another franchise

Far to difficult to project a high school player making such a great impact

Really appreciate how Jack brought that team together - was so fun to watch

Commented on Jack Ramsay's Legacy in Portland on May 14 2013, 11:16p

I realize the contract would be less than Batum's, however I see the team taking a step back with Porter in place of Batum

If they could pull this off it would be a good move - my first choice however is to trade up - lets see where the Kings land and throw them some money to move up

Commented on Friends, Romans, countrymen.. lend me your Blazer mock drafts! on May 11 2013, 1:52a

I just can't see a team taking Muhammad when Oladipo is still on the board

Last year around this time I would have Noel - would have said so about 6 months ago as well...but now I lean more towards Ben

So breaking this down further

Commented on Rudy Gobert Anyone? on May 10 2013, 1:49a - 2 replies

I stated this on another thread, that Hoops Hype compares him to Shawn Bradley which gives reason to pause

Commented on Rudy Gobert Anyone? on May 10 2013, 1:34a - 3 replies

The concern on Saric is that I read he doesn't play good defense and only shot 37% from the field and 50% from the line - it was only for 15 games so may have been in a slump - but still not great stats

Commented on Ford: Blazers Select Georgia G Kentavious Caldwell-Pope In 2013 NBA Mock Draft on May 9 2013, 3:28a

Haven't seen Gobert play, however just seeing HoopsHype compare Gobert to Shawn Bradley gives reason to pause

I was hoping last year that the Blazers would target Asik and not Hibbert as I thought Asik was signable and Indiana would match Hibbert's offer

I agree with building and keeping the OL strong

Commented on Vikings Sign Keith, Release Edwards on May 7 2013, 3:24a

Would rather pass on Shabazz at this point

Commented on Shabazz Muhammad on May 7 2013, 3:13a

Brook Lopez?

In addition - why trade Claver for a 2nd round pick - Victor seems like he'll be a solid role player - something you typically hope for from a second round pick

Not what the team needs - he has a decent touch from the outside, and moves pretty well with the ball for a big man...

Commented on Smith: Blazers Take Gonzaga's Kelly Olynyk At No. 10 In 2013 NBA Mock Draft on Apr 30 2013, 3:26a

Became a Viking fan in 1969 - the Vikings may not have won the Superbowl but they had great teams, great players and a great coach.

Commented on Daily Norseman Interview With Hall Of Fame Coach Bud Grant on Apr 30 2013, 2:12a

Was rated by some as the top undrafted RB

Commented on Vikings Undrafted Free Agents on Apr 29 2013, 3:23a

The highlights certainly show why the Vikings are high on him - brings a lot of explosiveness and big play potential

Commented on Stock Market Report: Draft Weekend Grades And Observations on Apr 29 2013, 2:59a

Not sure about Denard, but the rest is along the lines of what I was thinking

Commented on Stock Market Report: Draft Weekend Grades And Observations on Apr 29 2013, 2:46a

Well, the team could have stayed where they were in the second and drafted Arthur Brown

Commented on Stock Market Report: Draft Weekend Grades And Observations on Apr 28 2013, 9:42p - 2 replies

Not happy about the number of picks dealt to get Patterson - too many good players still on the board and didn't need to move up that far to land one of them

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: Minnesota Vikings Select Cordarrelle Patterson on Apr 26 2013, 3:33a

Agree - gave up way too much

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: Minnesota Vikings Select Cordarrelle Patterson on Apr 26 2013, 3:10a

49ers gave up less to move up to the middle of the first then the Vikings did to move up to the late first...just gave up too much

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: First Round Open Thread, Part 2 on Apr 25 2013, 11:44p - 1 reply

Would have preferred to use a 4th to move up in the 2nd and still had a 3rd and 4th...oh well

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: First Round Open Thread, Part 3 on Apr 25 2013, 11:36p

Puts a bit of a damper on the draft for me - way too much to move back into the first

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: First Round Open Thread, Part 3 on Apr 25 2013, 11:22p

Waaaay toooo much

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: First Round Open Thread, Part 3 on Apr 25 2013, 11:21p

Way too much to give up - that's why the Patriots did it (if it's the 2nd, 3rd and 4th) - more then the other teams that traded up in the first round

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: First Round Open Thread, Part 3 on Apr 25 2013, 11:20p

Nooooo

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: First Round Open Thread, Part 2 on Apr 25 2013, 11:14p

Agreed - would rather trade up slightly in the second and take Arthur Brown

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: First Round Open Thread, Part 2 on Apr 25 2013, 11:13p

Dang - there went my top WR still on the board

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: First Round Open Thread, Part 2 on Apr 25 2013, 11:09p

Ogletree, Brown or Rhodes with the next pick? Could also trade down and possibly get one of these guys or a WR. I'm guessing there will be a run on receivers pretty quick - maybe at the top of the second round

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: First Round Open Thread, Part 2 on Apr 25 2013, 10:50p

Floyd and then Ogletree or Arthur Brown...or maybe Rhodes.

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: First Round Open Thread, Part 2 on Apr 25 2013, 10:42p

Got to be Sheriff - please don't let it be Te'o

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: First Round Open Thread, Part 2 on Apr 25 2013, 10:41p

Falcons take CB - that leaves the Vikings in position for Floyd if they want him - Sheriff and Ogletree or Arthur Brown or maybe Rhodes

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: First Round Open Thread, Part 2 on Apr 25 2013, 10:38p

I'm with you there

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: First Round Open Thread, Part 2 on Apr 25 2013, 10:36p

Falcons want someone they think the Vikings wanted?

Hope the Bengals select Te'o

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: First Round Open Thread, Part 2 on Apr 25 2013, 10:31p

Support those selections

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: First Round Open Thread, Part 2 on Apr 25 2013, 10:31p

Please no

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: First Round Open Thread, Part 2 on Apr 25 2013, 10:30p - 1 reply

No - would rather not go in there

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: First Round Open Thread, Part 2 on Apr 25 2013, 10:29p

I'm hoping Te'o goes to the Bears - I'm guessing it will be Ogletree

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: First Round Open Thread, Part 2 on Apr 25 2013, 10:23p

Ogletree to the Bears?

Come on move up now - Floyd won't likely be there at #23 - go get him

Can't stand the Cowboys - would add fuel to the fire if they take Floyd.

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: First Round Open Thread, Part 2 on Apr 25 2013, 10:11p

I'm guessing Steelers take Jarvis Jones...or a WR

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: First Round Open Thread, Part 2 on Apr 25 2013, 10:08p

Sheriff Floyd, Rhodes, Trufant, Ogletree, and Jones still on the board

Should be in just a moment...

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: First Round Open Thread on Apr 25 2013, 9:35p

That's who I'm guessing they will select - Fluker

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: First Round Open Thread on Apr 25 2013, 9:29p

Trade up with the Raiders? Would like to see the Vikings move up Sheriff Floyd - Raiders likely to take him though

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: First Round Open Thread, Part 2 on Apr 25 2013, 9:27p

Warmack to the Titans?

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: First Round Open Thread on Apr 25 2013, 9:20p - 4 replies

That would make sense

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: First Round Open Thread on Apr 25 2013, 9:14p

Agree - it would have been a good move on their part

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: First Round Open Thread on Apr 25 2013, 9:13p

Jets may go Wormack now

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: First Round Open Thread on Apr 25 2013, 9:12p

I hope so to - I'm in the move up for Sheriff movement right now

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: First Round Open Thread on Apr 25 2013, 9:09p - 1 reply

At this point, the Raiders would likely take Sheriff Floyd - who I thought they would take at #3

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: First Round Open Thread on Apr 25 2013, 9:08p

Jets want/need more picks

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: First Round Open Thread on Apr 25 2013, 9:01p

When would you trade up if Sheriff remains on the clock?

Commented on 2013 NFL Draft: First Round Open Thread on Apr 25 2013, 8:57p - 1 reply

Sylvester Williams with the 23rd pick, move down a bit and then select Arthur Brown - LB

Commented on Realistic best-case scenario on Apr 25 2013, 8:24p

I'm definately with you on trading up in the second to second a WR...and go defense in the first

Commented on MOAR DRAFT on Apr 23 2013, 1:49a

Haven't seen Short play in an actual game - only highlights. Wasn't impressed with his energy and ability to push the pocket.

Commented on CCNorsemen Final Mock Draft on Apr 22 2013, 1:34a - 1 reply

Yes - really don't want to deal Matthews. My sense at this point is the odds of keeping the 10th selection is pretty slim.

Have very similar thoughts

Commented on Player I want and/or would accept in each round on Apr 21 2013, 2:03p

I think there is good value for a receiver in the 2nd round if one is passed on in the first.

I see the team trading one or two of the second round picks

I think if they really wanted Drummond they could have made a deal to move up two spots to select him - I think they were leary of him...but just a guess
