Really strong piece. Your knowledge of both the Vikings and the national college scene is evident throughout.

I'm currently in the FC program for WWE writing, but have done a few pieces on the Vikings. If I were writing Vikings pieces on a regular basis, I'd aspire to this level of quality.

Thanks for the interesting and informative article.

no wonder you dont work for ESPN no more that "vikings most disappointing" article made me dumber just by reading it do you even think out your articles before you write them or just drink a case of beer and just go for it?

Your article's are fairly good for the most point, but the "Vikings Most Disappointing players through 5 weeks" Needs to be kind of re-thought, otherwise, your articles are pretty good...

Bill - Congratulations on the NFL article of the week! That's really great.

Thanks for reading and the props, Bill! I think Gilmore and Smith could both be there at No. 35... if that's the case, I don't know who they'd take.

I just wouldn't go WR in the 2nd round... not with this deep of a class. I'm getting blasted for thinking the Vikes would be taking a DB there though.

Great piece on the Life After A.P. article... so sad, but so true... hopefull the guy can come back like Welker has, but it's such a crap shoot.

Bill could you(if you have time) write a ten most hated vikings players of all time...Thanks..
