You're going to. Hey everybody, welcome to another episode of Purple Insider, Matthew Collar here and joining

the show for the one thousand time everybody celebrate PFF Brad

Brad Spielberg of pro football focus what is going on Brad how about this how many times did you and I talk about hey what if Kirk leaves how will that look the

advantages and the salary cap all we had the discussion so many times now we are

here and I got to say going to the odors meetings it felt like the

Minnesota Vikings were the bell of the ball with everybody talking about are the

Vikings going to trade up what's it going going to cost? Look at us. Who would have thought?

Who would have thought? We've pontificated about what it could look like and what it could lead to for years. We're ahead of the curve and now we're there and I love that what they did this

off season and how everything is shaping up to drop our rookie quarterback into the equation.

I think it's going to be a fun era of Vikings football.

Yeah that's for sure.

So before we get into your mock draft,

and I've got a, I think unique way of breaking down your mock.

But I just want to know what you thought of the Vikings acquiring the 23rd pick, because there was some varying opinions on that about whether they give up too much or what, know what the quality of that move was but

for me it made perfect sense for them to trade up to be able to have better

ammunition than any other team that maybe is trying to reach into their future draft picks and

instead you can say to the Patriots you can say to the Arizona Cardinals yeah

I know those future picks are great but

picks now are even better and so I thought personally it was a very crafty and

shrewd move from Quaysee Adolfol Mensa and he shouldn't pretend that they don't want to trade up.

I mean there's no secret about it that they would like to have it and if it doesn't work out,

well then they still end up with two first round draft picks.
