Minnesota Vikings News and Links, 4/1

We've made it to another month, folks! And it still seems like we're forever away from the 2014 NFL Draft. Hopefully the time will start moving a little more quickly here so we can see who the Minnesota Vikings will be adding to their roster for the upcoming season.

Since the last time we brought you an Open Thread. . .

-Mark brought you his latest Daily Mock Draft.

-Ted continued his "Making the Case" series for potential draft picks by taking a look at Louisville quarterback Teddy Bridgewater.

From some other sources around the internet. . .

-New Vikings' head coach Mike Zimmer says that he saw some "flags" when he spoke to Johnny Manziel.

-We have an idea of how much cap space the Vikings have remaining, but nobody is exactly sure.

-If you live in the Fargo-Moorhead area, former Vikings' quarterback Daunte Culpepper will be signing autographs at the new Sam's Club that's opening on Thursday.

The rules of the Open Thread are the same as always, ladies and gentlemen. . .no politics, no religion, no feeding of the trolls, keep the language relatively clean, and keep the GIFs relatively work-safe.

For today's musical selection, a song appropriate for this particular day.

With that, the beer light is on and the bar is open for the first day of April, everybody. We will have more for your reading enjoyment later on today.
