Hey, everybody, welcome to another episode of Purple Insider presented by Fanduel.

Matthew Collar here.

And on the show today, Max Chadwick.

All right, from the preferred walk-on podcast covering all things college football, formerly of pro football focus, Max Chadwick. Welcome back to the show, my friend. How are we doing? Matt, I'm doing great, man. I think you might have a couple new chapters to add to your PFF book after what's been happening over the last month.

But I love talking to you, dude, honestly, like I said, I was a big fan of your stuff beforehand. And then obviously, the couple times we've linked up in Indianapolis for the Combine. It was a lot of fun talking Vikings ball with you there too. So yeah, man, I'm excited to talk even more Vikings draft stuff. I believe like a couple of years ago, we even shouted out. hey jason mccarthy might be a viking the way they're looking at him and he is there now

and i will see whether or whether he's starting quarterback week one with Kyler Murray now in town. But I'm excited to kind of talk about the other prospects in this year's draft of the Minnesota movie looking at. Absolutely. So I've got some plans. I do want to say you did great work well with PFF, but you guys are taking the preferred walk-on

show to the moon as well.

So if people have not checked that out, that is not ending.

In fact, maybe you could even say it's just starting for you and Dalton.

So let's talk about the options for the Vikings in the draft.

And I really want to dive into some specific players in two different categories.

I want to talk about the safe draft picks for the Minnesota Vikings and your takes.

And then the risky potential draft picks for the Vikings.

And I'm just going to go all guys that have been in some way or another connected to the Vikings,

whether it's a visit or a mock draft or a port or whatever, and we'll cast a bit of a wide net and break it down.

Let's begin with the safest of safe picks, the most obvious of obvious picks.

I think you know where I'm going with this.

Dylan Thineman, the safety from Oregon, feels like a really good fit, a really good athlete, has the right

character, makeup, has a lot of experience, has the PFF grades.

Everything kind of checks out for Dylan Thineman.

But here's the question for you.

Is that a good idea for the Minnesota Vikings to go with Thineman?
