    Why would they announce this? Makes no sense.

      I don't know if talking to Shefter and giving him an impression on how they are leaning is the same as announcing.

        Because if they know who they're taking & have no plans to trade the pick, what difference does it make? If they're sold on a guy who isn't Luck or RG3, then they're not in the market to trade the pick and being coy does them no good-all it does is confuse the guy that they may have already told will be their pick.

          Everyone including yours truly remains convinced the Vikings will take Matt Kalil #3 overall and everything else is just speculation and smoke screening. D...


          In response to a message from Adam Schefter I changed the wording of the above post. Initially I conveyed that Schefter was “convinced” the Vikings would not take Kalil. But Schefter is in fact not convinced, he simply believes the Vikings are not a lock to take Kalil. This is the exact wording from the Schefter Q&A in question:

          "The key to that would be Minnesota passing on Kalil, which I happen to believe the Vikings will. I’m in the minority
          there and the Vikings are still deciding what to do, but I don’t think Kalil is the lock that others do — even if Minnesota stays at 3."

            sure it does. it generates interest from other teams and now the phone will be ringing. they could possibly land a deal that someone will overpay for the #3 pick in the draft.

                In other words, the Vikings are trying spread, "if you want to give us a megadeal to move up, we're willing b'cse we are not locked down on a player".

                Nothing to see here folks...
