IF the #Vikings were to draft a kicker, who would you want it to be?

Coming home to MN?

[cordarrelle patterson @ceeflashpee84]

Wow!!!

[Purple Reign News @PurpleReignNews]

Shocked that the #vikings re-signed Dozier

[Purple Reign News @PurpleReignNews]

Woods looks like a very high energy player and I like it

Everyone is talking about the #Vikings defense being scary, but this offense is a lineman or two away from being top notch

@Forester932 @Superskolfan Yes, but Zimmer loves run blockers, hence why they let Kline go

[Purple Reign News @PurpleReignNews]

From what I understand, Forest Lamp is far from elite and the Vikings would be better off finding a guard in the draft

[Purple Reign News @PurpleReignNews]

@JacobNosbush I'm thinking Cleveland will stay at RG. He looked good there and I'm not sure he's well suited to play tackle in the NFL anytime soon

[Purple Reign News @PurpleReignNews]

@Superskolfan Those PFF grades aren't exactly stellar though...

[Purple Reign News @PurpleReignNews]

Keanu Neal to the Cowboys is actually good.... you never spend money on a safety IMO

[Purple Reign News @PurpleReignNews]

@vikingsspin He’s a 49.4 overall... we can do better than that

[Purple Reign News @PurpleReignNews]

@Superskolfan I’ve heard Lamp isn’t actually that good but I don’t know much about him
