Mailbag Questions

[edit]
  • Tommy Gunn: What names are the biggest concerns for the Vikings drafted by the rest of the NFC North?
  • Alex Goble: Who among the 2015 Vikes draft class is most likely to exceed expectations?
  • ZenCupid: I'm near Green Bay for work and the entire class is made up of Packers' fans. How can I survive this!?
  • Daniel P.: What would you call Matt Asiata if he played for the Packers? I'd call him Matt Asiago, like the cheese
  • Jonathan Judeich: What's the best hotel to stay at in Canton for the Hall of Fame game?
  • Luke Larson: The situation with the punter is still poor. Do you think Rick will bring in competition for Locke?
  • Nick: What do you think of the idea of having Kendricks play OLB instead of in the middle?
  • Kyle Segall: This draft. Am I happy or am I sad?
  • Nathan S.: Without a high investment of quality draft picks in the line, do you think that the Vikes are hoping one of the quantity of linemen will step up, or do the Vikes secretly trust Berger/Yankey and Kalil to provide the time for the deep game? Over/Under 290 rushing attempts for Peterson this year? What metric does Waynes have to achieve this year as a rookie for people to eat crow on his college evaluation? On a scale of 'Number of games Brady actually misses' to 'number of insufferable Pats fans right now' how bad will our offensive line be this year?
