Thread: Vikings select Tyrell Johnson 43rd overall

Safety from Arkansas State..

Good pick.. many people had him in the first round, this gives us a future starter when Sharper is done..

This might be questioned alot, however i like the pick..

I like it.
They're gushing about him on NFL Network.

i would rather have taken Anthony Collins, but i guess the vikes FO is not worried about BMacs situation or Ryan Cook, i was actually thinking we were trading up for Limas Sweed

well lets hope it works out for us.
i wanted a safety, but maybe not this early. since all those tackles were gone, we couldnt have picked one of those here, and we didnt want to take a wr now and i guess we trust tjack... so safety it is.

mayock likes him, so i guess he will be just fine for us. he was a beast at the combine by his numbers so i am going to go with i like this pick, just do not like trading up (unless the bears were going to take him)

How many safties do we have now...?
Not really sure who else we coulda gone after, but it seems like half the team could play safety, maybe I'm wrong.

we have 5

sharper
williams
boulware
Johnson
and frampton, who will prolly get cut

I don't like this move, we have Sharper, Williams, and Boulware at safety, we need a QB, I don't think that Jackson can get it done.

From the analysis and the write up on NFL.com...he looks pretty good.
BTW I like the symbolism of jumping ahead of the Bears and Lions even if they wouldn't have picked him.
