All right, from Vikings on SI, Will Raggitz returns to the show.

0:10.9

And something that we have done over the years, Will, and I've really enjoyed, is games of Talk Me Into.

0:15.8

We've reached the point where we are almost at NFL draft week, but we have enough time and space to have a little

0:22.4

fun with draft discussion as well. So welcome back to the show, sir. How are you?

0:28.2
