== Mailbag Questions ==
* Luke Braun - Who on the roster has the most to lose this weekend? Sort of like how Mackensie Alexander's future got real murky after the Hughes pick
* Viking of the North - Though he wasn't a consistent threat, Aldrich Robinson made some excellent catches last season. Why is there no buzz around him or maybe even Beebe contesting for the WR3 position?
* Mr Dan - If the Vikings draft Andre Dillard in the first would it be smart to trade up in the second if a high quality 3 tech DT or G if they are still available?
* Zen Cupid - How probable is it that both Rudy and Waynes are dealt during the draft?
* Matt Beckendorf - And with all the AAF signings on defense do you think they'll draft more offensive players in later rounds?
* Ryan - How exactly will Rick piss off fans night 1? And how will he try to redeem himself night 2?
* Josh Swedlund - Which draft day scenarios best represent various gif reactions on Vikings Twitter
* Kenneth Allen - Does the fact that we waited until the last minute to trade whoever is getting traded for cap relief mean that the trade won't really be in our favor?
* Kenneth Allen - Do sports journalists, especially you analytics nerds, have draft parties where you see who can be the first to recall the spider graphs of each late round pick?
* Luke Braun - A nuclear apocalypse wipes out all of society except the current Vikings roster, creating a Lord Of The Flies type situation. Who is the leader? Who gets eaten?
* Scott Braquet - Worst Case Scenario - Top 3 linemen are off the board by pick #18 - what is the strategy moving forward?
* Scott Braquet - Any issues moving Barr to Edge to replace Griffen and add in a new LB or promote Eric Wilson?
* Kyle Slaybee - If you could pick one conference that the Vikings could only draft from this year: which would it be?
* Kyle Slaybee - Which ice cold draught should I be enjoying during the draft to numb the pain of another day three kicker?
* Kyle Slaybee - With the recent schedule release, have discussions begun on the next destination for the "Norse Code: On Location" episode?
