Speaker 1 (00:01):
You know it's draft season. And it's been draft season
for since the irregular season finished up for the Minnesota
Vikings when they didn't make the playoffs. And you know
it's draft season when I just read a report that
said the Minnesota Vikings, if Drake May is not available
(00:21):
where they select, or if they can't get up to
number three, they're more than comfortable drafting Bo Nicks. And
then I saw another report that said sources inside the
organization or multiple sources have told me J. J. McCarthy
is the favorite to be drafted by the Minnesota Oh
and then there's this other source that said the Minnesota
(00:43):
Vikings might trade up everything because they love Drake May.
What do you believe? Who do you believe this time
of year? Well, there are certain sources that you can trust,
certain guys inside the organization that I trust more so
than a random report order out in the middle of nowhere,
Oklahoma that's saying the Minnesota Vikings are gonna select Bownecks
(01:05):
with the first overall pick. No, I don't believe it.
I trust the guys that are inside the Minnesota Vikings organization,
that have sources close to the organization agents, stuff like
that the newest report is that the New England Patriots
(01:25):
are listening and taking phone calls on offers for the
number three overall pick. I love that. I love the
way that's worded. And that was reported by Diana Russini
of The Athletic. She is a reliable source, a source
that I trust wholeheartedly because of her inside knowledge inside
(01:50):
the NFL. Now I believe that to be true. And
there was another report that just shared that no one
has come even close to the New England Patriots wants
or needs to acquire that number three overall pick. But
here's the catch on that report by Diana Russini. The
(02:12):
report was the Patriots are listening and taking calls. That
doesn't necessarily mean a single thing. Now, it means more
than we're not listening to any calls. But the dumbest
organization in sports would not listen to a call. Even
(02:32):
the Chicago Bears are taking the phone call and saying, hey,
offer us something extraordinary for Caleb Williams, if you're gonna
try to get up to number one. The Washington commanders
are doing the exact same thing because they're gonna draft
Jaden Daniels the New England Patriots are doing the exact
same thing because they're gonna draft Drake May. Of course,
(02:55):
you're gonna listen and take the phone call. You're not
gonna block guys across the NFL. But the question is,
are you going to seriously consider the call that's coming in?
Are you seriously gonna consider three first round picks for
(03:15):
that third overall pick. I've been consistent all off season,
and I believe that the Minnesota Vikings will not acquire
number three overall because the New England Patriots are gonna
draft a quarterback number three overall. And I don't think
it's blasphemy to say that the New England Patriots are
(03:38):
not gonna move from number three, even though they have
needs all over their roster. They need a quarterback, the
most important position on a roster. And why would you
trade back to number eleven to number twenty three to
a first round pick next year when Jacoby Brissett is
the only guy on their roster. So this latest report
(04:00):
from Diana Russidi, what does it tell me? Well, it
tells me that the answer in the phone, for one,
But it doesn't tell me a whole lot more than that.
It tells me that the New England Patriots they might
be listening. They're waiting for a godfather offer from the
Minnesota Viking, saying, you know what, if the Minnesota Vikings
(04:21):
send them five first round picks because they believe that
much in Drake May, well, then maybe the Patriots will
do that deal. And you know what, if I was
a Minnesota Viking general manager or head coach, I would
trade five first round picks for Drake May if I
believed that Drake May was going to be the best
(04:43):
quarterback in this draft or had the chance to be
a player like Josh Allen. I don't think people quite
understand just how valuable a player like Josh Allen is
in the NFL. If the Minnesota Vikings had Josh Allen,
(05:03):
Joshin Jefferson, Kevin O'Connell's offensive scheme, you're throwing a good
defender here and there like they're already doing. Do you
know just how explosive that offense and just how explosive
the Minnesota Vikings roster would be. I don't think people
get so afraid of forking up first round picks that
(05:26):
don't necessarily mean a whole lot, because any one of
them could be bus and you know what, Drake May
could be a bus too, But I want the Vikings
to do it. Send him eight first round picks. Get
a superstar quarterback if you believe that guy is the
superstar quarterback in this draft. If you think Drake May
(05:50):
can take the Minnesota Vikings from a playoff team to
playoff wins to a super Bowl appearance to a super
Bowl victory, then do it. Don't even hesitate. Give them
(06:12):
twenty first round picks. A super Bowl is all we
want to be able to look back. Even Minnesota Viking
fans that aren't even born yet, they can still look
back on twenty twenty five and say we won a
super Bowl and they want to. They won't even have
to listen to Green Bay Packers fans for their entire life.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
So, hey, you guys won't have a super Bowl? You
guys don't do you guys know that you know? Do
you guys know that you're over forces? We had Aaron
Rods and Brett Farm, we had Bart Star. We want
super Bowl?
Speaker 1 (06:46):
But do you know? Do you know that you don't
have a super Bowl? When yet? Do you want your
future grandkids to be able to listen to that crap forever,
give up whatever you need to get Drake May if
you think he's that superstar guy. Now, I don't think
the Patriots are gonna do it, but they should. The
(07:10):
Viking should, is what I'm referring to. Thank you for
