I firmly believe that we need a safety to replace Madieu. Tyrell showed, towards the end of the season, that he can be an excellent player but madieu just hasn’t quite stepped up to the show.

Normally, I am a believer in drafting the BPA.

For the Vikings in 2010, however, I think they have a few immediate needs: CB, LB, and guard. Maybe safety, too. Given the constraints of free agency this year, the best way to fill those needs is to draft players in the early rounds.

Thus, in the first round, I think the Vikings should take the best available linebacker, cornerback, or guard, as long as they can come in and contribute on the field immediately.

If you need a one dollar bill for coffee and you run across that fiver which someone dropped on the floor, do you not bend over until someone drops a one there for you so you can use the machine? No, you grab the five and then trade it, even if it is to someone for four ones (if you must), after which that guy who gave you the change will either like you a lot and figure he owes you a favor in the future or he’ll think that you’re a fool and try to play poker with you some time. Either way, you come out ahead. You surely don’t walk on by and let that creep from accounting you hate come by and pick up that five after you have left it on the ground. Even Bill Gates picks up the five, though the time he spends picking it up is below his average rate of income for the time he spends in doing so. He doesn’t lose money by picking it up. He averages that much in that space of time, whether he picks up fives or not. Saints will pick up the five and try to determine who lost it, unless of course they were those New Orleans Saints, in which case they would grab the five, mug your quarterback with some cheap hits, and then claim they’re so good at football and economics.
