aec4 Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 why wouldn't they? they are not in love with any of the players and they do not want to pay the #1 slot Because while they may not be able to get "fair market value" for the #1 pick, they'd get at least something. Even if it meant swapping with say #5 for a 3rd rounder (which isn't close to fair value) if they do not like anyone at #1, they'd still get something MORE by doing that, even if it is short of what the price should be.

Thai Jet Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Aren't the Vikings the poster children for missing deadlines at the draft? I believe they have done it twice in the last 5 years. . Yes That was the best draft EVER . Teams had people racing up there with their cards . Fastest 1st round in history too I think. BTW: The Vikings wound up with Kevin Williams so they did OK.
