You're going to. Hey everybody. Welcome to a very special episode of Purple Insider.

Matthew Collar here along with the old Vikings access boys, Chip Skoggins of the Star Tribune,

Judd Zulgad as well. They used to be the grandest duo on the Vikings beat.

They used to have terrible tweets

You know them so well.

And I wanted to put together this episode

of some Vikings draft stories going back with you guys from when you were on the beat to the present because we're all waiting for Kwaisie to make this trade.

So while we wait, this is what we're going to talk about.

So I want to begin by going back as far as you guys

started on the beat and the first drafts you covered,

which for you Zolgad was 06 and for Chip was 2008.

And I think Judd, a great place to begin this conversation

was the Adrian Peterson draft pick, and what you remember about that selection because I remember

going into that draft and of course I was like I don't know in college maybe but But I remember thinking,

Judd.

This was Sean Alexander is the best player in the NFL, not these quarterbacks,

is a running league. so what do you remember about that

that decision to take Adrian Peterson and how he kind of fell-ish into the Vikings lap?

I remember being very surprised as the bell-ish into the Vikings lap.

I remember being very surprised as the slide began.
