Mailbag Questions
[edit]- Rahul - Since we're the angriest fan base in the league, predict the next move that will leave us screaming into the void (years)
- Anonymous - Looks like a good amount of room to trade back in this draft. How far back do we need to trade down to receive a 2nd round pick back?
- Reuben Frost - A lot was made of Kwesi taking a 'discount' last year to move down. Is there a long term advantage to taking this discount because, as the league shifts to lower compensation for moving down, moving up finally becomes strategically viable?
- Ingram's left foot - Which member of Vikings Twitter would you want negotiating your next contract? What would they actually be promoting instead?
- Luke Braun - Who wears 0 for the vikings? Who do you wish could have worn 0 for the vikings?
- Brian - What will they name after Bud Grant?
- Enthusiasm - Why exactly is KJ not good enough to be WR2?
- Kenneth Allen - What do you make of the reporting of the Vikings' interest in Lamar? Is it just fan wishcasting?
- Paul - What happens first? Twins playoff game win or Vikings Super Bowl win? What do you have against Tanner McKee?
- The Real Jak - For Arif's Side Hustle Corner, how long has he been moonlighting as the Bengals backup RB? Yes I'm talking about Samaj Perine
- Chris - What is a Kwesi-ism that you think you could successfully blend into conversation without people noticing?
- Nolan Kehler - Which is Mina Kimes' best performance: Black Swan or Forgetting Sarah Marshall?
