We go off on a lot of tangents and fully enjoy our three-man episode setup, and include a healthy football discussion to boot. Chip Kelly and the NFL's self-promotion highlight our talks, but there's a lot going on.

Episode Notes:
- One of my favorite projects of the year is the consensus big board produced at Vikings Territory. We have a preview of the top 250 prospects, and will get more information in another post shortly afterwards. This is the consensus of all the draft experts you can find, and see a comprehensive list of the top players, by agreement.
- The first thing that comes up when discussing the schedule is the placement of the bye week. There's some soft evidence which indicates that it either doesn't matter or that earlier is better, courtesy of Bill Barnwell at Grantland.
- There are a lot of good draft stories to take a look at, and one of my favorite players was recently profiled by MMQB. Check out Division III Ali Marpet from Hobart College.
- We mentioned the Vikings' spot in the Bleacher Report 2014 draft power rankings. You can take a look here.
- I predicted every game in the schedule because I'm a magnet for abuse. Read and disagree.
- The latest Vikings Journal mailbag is up. We talk corners! One of the mailbag questions for the podcast concerned a player I didn't look at, so I took some notes on him and put him in the most recent Vikings Journal piece.
- The Vikings can make a lot of crazy moves on draft day with Rick Spielman. Here's five of them.
- A lot of mid-to-late round picks could fit with the Vikings. I profiled one at each position of need.
- Don't sleepers? Here are instant starters in the draft.
- Either way, good and bad things can happen in the draft. The Vikings have a number of best and worst case scenarios.

I'm still getting notes that people do not have our podcast updating in iTunes. One reason is that we're not on the old iTunes feed—we've switched RSS feeds. This is the link to that iTunes feed. If not, check out norsecodepodcast.com (also donate there)!
As always, find us on iTunes and Stitcher by searching for us in those applications, or subscribe to our new RSS feed.
