Yeah, they could be big players in free agency next year. This year might be a bit of a wash, but if McCarthy is even an average starter, you have to figure they'll be set up to be pretty decent.QB of the future and a potential All Pro at EDGE to replace Hunter. Use the cap space now to fill out the roster. Some wanted to not have the 2025 First rounder as well to get McCarthy.
Maybe in 2030Will Atlanta have to give the Vikes any picks for tampering?
Hopefully Darnold will play more like the 2nd pick in the draft that he was and finally given a chance to play well with quality offensive players. McCarthy can sit and learn.Turner is a good get. I’m not fully sold on McCarthy.
Exactly how I feelTurner is a good get. I’m not fully sold on McCarthy.
Would rather have one very, very good player vs 4 mediocre playersHoly crap... Vikes gave up a ton for that. Not sure about that decision.
And possibly Atlanta’s first round pick next year, depending on what the NFL decides to rule for tamperingNot to mention we have comp picks likely coming for the free agents we lost this year and a ton of cap space next off season
Can only imagine. Let's hope this works. Jj an adison are open if the football is availableHe was all over the place on the QBs.
oops, my badOnly 1st and 2 5ths next year now. Gave up the 2nd when they got pick 23 from Houston
Not to worried about the trade value for Turner. He is a Top 10 talent, so they still got a bargain, in my opinion.So according to the Rich Hill Draft Value Chart...
Trade with Jets:
10 = 369, 203 = 5
Total = 374.
11 = 358, 129 = 18, 157 = 11
Total = 387
Trade with Jags:
17 = 296
23 = 245
167 = 9
2025 3rd (mid-round) = 50
2025 4th (mid-round) = 23
Total = 327
Who knows what the 2025 pick values will be. Obviously the better the Vikes do next year the worse they'll be. If they can finish in the top half of the league that Total value could be 300 or less.
I think the Vikings get an A grade.Honestly, tonight could not really have played out better for the Vikings. Get your QB without having to give away the farm. And then get arguably the best defensive player in the entire draft at 17. And STILL have your #1 pick next year - which could end up being near the top 10 again.
I've been very critical of Kwesi to this point. I give him major kudos tonight. Sitting pat and not jumping the gun and still getting your guy at QB took stones. And then being aggressive and trading up for Turner. I'm very happy to eat crow tonight.
Nothing personal here but I listened to people ***** for years about trader Rick and now they do the opposite and still the ********.I like both picks, but damn... Kwesi is trading all of our draft picks away. I think we have no 2nd, 3rd, or 4th round picks next year, and no 2nd or 3rd round picks this year.

They both suck, in my opinion. If McCarthy is a bust then Kwesi will be out of a job in a couple years.Nothing personal here but I listened to people ***** for years about trader Rick and now they do the opposite and still the ********.

I'm definitely ok with the pick.At least they did not overpay. McCarthy is a great prospect. After Williams there are questions about all the QB top 6. McCarthy only lost one game in college. TCU game in last year’s CFP semifinals.
