What good would spending two perfectly good draft picks for a guy that will cost $8.25M next year, and then likely command a top 3 salary at the position the next year?
Even if they did trade a pick for a player, it would make more sense to go after an up and comer, still on his rookie deal with time left on it.
Great point. If we trade for an up and comer, Hochenson would be the guy I would go after. Just doubt the Lions would be
willing to deal him for anything.

Who do the Vikes have at TE or at DT?
Also, what kind of cap trouble are the Lions in?
