Speaker 1 (00:01):
The final mock drafts are being updated and released via
social media along with NFL Network mock drafts. Everywhere people
are releasing their final edition of NFL mock drafts with
the NFL Draft happening on Thursday night. So let's review

(00:22):
some of the top mock drafts that I find to
be most reliable. This take is presented by Hopeland Farm.
Hokland Farm has rotationally grazed on grass fed beef. This
beef is sold in quarters and halves and Jared has
custom sample packs so you can try before you buy.
Get great beef in your freezers today by a source

(00:43):
you can trust. With Jared, contact him at nine five
two four nine one one five four to one and
get twenty percent off your first order by mentioning the
Minnesota tim podcast. Okay, Peter Schrager, he did a mock
draft a week ago where he had the New York

(01:04):
Giants trading up with the Arizona Cardinals to select J. J. McCarthy.
And now he released his final mock draft after being
on the phones for a while, and he now has
the New York Giants staying pat at number six, selecting
a wide receiver Moleiku neighbors, and he has the Minnesota

(01:28):
Vikings trading up to that number seven slot, not number
five with the Chargers, not number four with the Arizona Cardinals,
to select JJ McCarthy out of Michigan. And then there's
another mock draft. Albert Breer, he is a reliable NFL
inside source. He shared that the intel he's heard has

(01:52):
the Minnesota Viking sting put at number eleven after failing
to draft or Land Drake may a trade and everyone
is calling the New York Giants bluff at pick number
six to select the quarterback out of Michigan. So who's

(02:18):
mock draft do I trust more? Well, I'm gonna answer
with this. I believe that there is so much pressure
on Quezy Adolfo Mensa from the Minnesota Vikings ownership, that
he knows he has to trade up to draft JJ McCarthy.

(02:40):
I believe that the time is ticking, the clock is ticking,
Quezy has to make a decision tonight to land and
trade up to draft one of the top four quarterbacks
available in this year's draft. Would I trade up for
JJ McCarthy, No, I would not, But I believe that

(03:03):
there is pressure mounting every single day, every single second
from Minnesota Vikings ownership on the Minnesota Vikings general manager
because he knows he needs to land a quarterback in
this year's draft, a quarterback that's going to be a
franchise guy for the next ten years. So those are

(03:27):
all things that are that need to be calculated when
discussing what's going to happen tonight, because it's not just
the New York Giants that the Minnesota Vikings have to
worry about or have to think about. In terms of
drafting a quarterback. You need to consider the Denver Broncos.

(03:47):
You need to consider the Las Vegas Raiders. There are
teams all over the NFL every single year that need
and demand a quarterback. So who's mock draft I trust more?
I trust Peter Scheger's mock draft more. I know both
these guys have multiple sources. People have sources in the

(04:08):
NFL all over the place. But I just do not
think the Minnesota Vikings are going to risk the possibility
of having Jaj McCarthy fall off the board if he
is the second quarterback that they love in this year's
draft and the most likely quarterback that they're gonna be
able to draft because all signs and leads are pointing

(04:33):
towards the New England Patriots selecting Drake May with the
number three overall selection. So the draft is tonight. It's exciting.
Things are happening. There's gonna be sources saying this and
sources saying that all day long. It's gonna be a
very anticipatory draft because there are so many possible factors

(05:00):
going into this year's draft of the Minnesota. For years,
it was okay, the Minnesota Vikings are gonna trade back.
Quezy even did it to draft Lewis Sen. Rex Spielman
did it for years. And now this is the one
year in a long long time, maybe ever, where the
Minnesota Vikings are gonna trade up. Not ever, I've seen

(05:24):
them trade up before, but they're gonna trade up, most
likely to draft a quarterback. And that's exciting. That's gonna
get the fan base going, even if it is for J. J. McCarthy,
a guy that I've been really really critical of this
entire offseason. But things are happening, Things are moving in directions,

(05:46):
and we'll see. Nobody really knows. Minnesota Vikings don't even
know what's gonna happen. Tonight. Thank you for listening, Thank
