Which QB?Trade up for a QB. It's time. I know it will cost a lot but how long until they get a pick this high again?I am still not that into the 2024 draft class yet. But looking at some top 100 type boards what I am seeing besides the QBs and 3 WR who are all rated top 10 type picks (and not needs for the Vikings if they do re-sign Kirk Cousins) there are several offensive linemen that are highly regarded. So with pick 11 the Vikings might be able to get a good player there. Which would help. While the Vikings only truly need one guard to fill out the starting 5 I would really like to see them replace Bradbury who hasn't been as bad but still is not that great either.
There are quite a few corners and edge players to consider. A MLB who could also play Edge might be the best option but I am not sure if such a player is available in this draft and perhaps not worthy of pick 11 if there is. Something I will be looking into more in days ahead.
Who are the players you think the Vikings should be targeting with pick 11?
I do think this is what an offensive minded HC and the new GM have been tasked to do. You dont want Rich Spielman selecting QBs for you thats for sure.
Pick 11 makes me nervous. That is around where the Vikings got Ponder. It was a wasted pick. On the other hand some great QBs have been selected near that pick from draft classes that had perhaps better options. Mahomes and Big Ben are a couple who come to mind immediately. The Bears just messed up taking Christian Trubisky over Mahomes. If the Vikings pick wrong, that could be what happens.
It seems like there are 3 QB who are being considered in the top 10 picks then another two or 3 QBs who are being considered later on in the draft. After pick 11.
Caleb Williams Drake Maye seem like the top 2 then Jayde Daniels is the next one. Phenix and Nix are still highly regarded just not as high as these 3 are.
So which one does the Vikings trade up for? Could they still get their guy at pick 11?
