Please don't make me post pics of the other teams scoring TDs on us, through the air. There are far more. _________________ Welcome to Minnesota, Greg Jennings.

So wasting a #3 draft pick on 1 cornerback is going to stop that?
Nope.
That's why we're going to get a FRANCHISE tackle with #3.
Claibornes can be found everywhere. There were three of them already signed as free agents yesterday. You dont get a chance to get a franchise tackle every day.
But if you wanna put your money where your mouth is...
Sig bet.
It's going to be Kalil.
So stop your crying. _________________

I don't know how I am crying? I've provided evidence, facts, and stats to back my argument up. All you have posted is pics and capitol letters to demonstrate your point.
So why would I sig bet with you? _________________ Welcome to Minnesota, Greg Jennings.

You're arguing over what the team should do vs. what the team will do.
I think Spielman will take Kalil because Kalil is viewed as the "safe" pick and because Spielman appears to be more interested in making Ponder's star shine than he is in winning football games.

I'm just not getting into this in this thread. I have made a thread about the same exact thing. This thread was designed strictly to call me out. That's fine.
Want to talk to me about this? Come over to my thread. Good day mates. _________________ Welcome to Minnesota, Greg Jennings.

Hey, starting a flame war was the last thing on my mind here.
It just seemed to me like people were arguing over two different things.

can some on post picks of dropped passes next for blackmon? a missed sack for Couples? a DT getting blocked back for Poe? we could do these all day.
I think it is likely down to claiborne or Kalil, I hope the fo makes it look like we'd take both so someone might trade up a couple picks for their guy. Maybe tampa moves up for claiborne, we'd still probably get kalil+pick(s), and I'd be happy about that. _________________

I've looked at a dozen mocks outside this site today and every one of them in Kalil. Now I always question whenever I am following the herd, but given the moves made to the O-line it has to be Kalil or htey are starting a new offense that doesnt require an O-line at all. _________________

More TD passes against the Vikings D than sacks on the Vikings QBs?
Really?!
Sacks of MN QBs 2011; 49
TD passes yielded by MN D: ...... ? <49? 49? or >49? _________________

If you go by the wording of his post - which you should, he is clearly saying there are more photos of teams scoring on us through the air than photos of our QBs getting sacked. _________________

Frank Costello's thread has much more substance than this one, btw. Moot point being made; milanb put it perfectly in saying that the comparison being made is what should happen versus what is likely to happen - apples and oranges. _________________
