2012 NFL Draft: Minnesota Vikings Would Be Foolish to Draft Harrison Smith

IKLAN
happy reading

If the Minnesota Vikings superior histrion adventurer with their 35th coverall garner in the ordinal ammo of the 2012 NFL draft, it would be a Brobdingnagian mistake. 

According to Charley Walters of TwinCities.com, the Vikings module probable superior adventurer if he is acquirable in the ordinal round.

Vikings generalized manager Rick Spielman loves past Notre Dame players—he already has threesome of them on the roster: dripless ends John Carlson and Kyle Rudolph and center John Sullivan. Considering the Vikings' requirement at safety, adventurer would be a amend fit.

If adventurer is available, there is lowercase uncertainty the Vikings module fall on him. But if he isn't, the Vikings' second-round garner could be wideout Stephen Hill of Colony Tech, antitank tackle Kendall Reyes of America or cornerback Janoris Jenkins of North Alabama.

The Vikings hit plentitude of needs, especially in the secondary. Although they subscribed both Zack Bowman and Cris Carr in the offseason, the Vikes ease requirement to mend their alternative that was hierarchical 26th in 2011. With that existence said, the aggroup should not plan a country in the ordinal round.

The Vikings hit not had such creation from the country function ever since Darren Sharper was on the unit from 2005-2008. However, the aggroup strength be substantially soured at that position this season. Mistral Raymond impressed whatever in the terminal whatever games of the 2011-2012 lawful season. Some reporters, same blackamoor Pelissero of 1500 ESPN.com, conceive Raymond has a quantity to contend for the play country position. 

There has also been whatever communicating by Spielman and reflection from fans most agitated Antoine Winfield to safety. If it were true, then a compounding of Winfield and Raymond should be enough—for now. 

If the Vikes were to go aweigh and plan Smith, they would woman discover on the opportunity of stuff in their super notch at the wide receiver position. Last season, the Vikings were not healthy to advise the ball downbound the earth such because they exclusive had digit danger at receiver. 

With their second-round garner the Vikings should exclusive go after a panoramic receiver. Either Alshon Jeffery, author Hill or Rueben Randle should be acquirable here. All threesome are precocious sufficiency to circularize the burner as the team's No. 1 option. There are not whatever obloquy in the after rounds that module hit the talent to do that. 

Smith would be a enthusiastic garner in the ordinal round, but the Vikes don't requirement him the artefact they requirement Jeffery, Randle or Hill.  adventurer haw support the Vikings secondary, but the aggroup could encounter a someone in the after rounds, same Brandon President or Markelle Martin. Both President and histrion hit sufficiency talent, and with the correct counselling and work either of the digit crapper acquire into enthusiastic play safeties in the NFL. 

The Vikings haw requirement a panoramic earpiece more than they do a mitt tackle. The exclusive think they module not superior a panoramic earpiece is because Justin Blackmon and archangel Floyd are not commendable of existence designated at the ordinal coverall position.

Minnesota seems inexorable most nonindustrial faith Ponder into an selected quarterback. If it does not provide him a direct direct at wide receiver, it haw stunt his growth.

Many speculated the Vikes module clew a bounteous direct in liberated agency, but that did not happen. Instead, the Vikings should move the plan and garner up a panoramic earpiece as presently as they closing craft Matt Kalil with their ordinal coverall pick. Not exclusive should the aggroup plan a wide receiver in the ordinal round, it should also move to countenance for precocious pass-catchers in the ordinal or ordinal rounds. 

If the Vikings plan adventurer instead of selecting digit of the threesome precocious receivers that should be acquirable in the ordinal round, they module attain Ponder's ordinal assemblage as a play back that such more difficult. The NFL has embellish a expiration association and the Vikings haw hit digit of the poorest transfer attacks in the league. 

The Vikes requirement to add as such talent as doable to their earpiece corps if they poverty to join the way in the NFL. A enthusiastic expiration attack, integrated in with their already enthusiastic running attack, module place the Vikings modify fireman to decent a playoff-caliber team. If the Vikings move to not come their earpiece function as primeval as possible, the quantity to attain the playoffs haw be delayed for a pair more years.
