And we could have traded back up for Dalton in the second round. We would not have had to take him at 10.

But again, these are just options we could have taken.

Thanks for the insults though.

I haven't insulted you so stop playing the victim role. That statement was for anybody acting like Shanny has no idea what he's doing.

Ponder wasn't a "clear" option. He was a slated 2nd round talent, and it was widely seen as a reach by the Vikings to take him at the 12th spot.

You are grasping at straws just trying to tear down Shanny. Instead of being a hatter, how about you realize this isn't going to happen overnight. You don't grab a QB just for the sake of grabbing you. If the guy doesn't fit you system, you don't take him. If he's a 2nd round talent, you don't take him in the top 10. Those types of panic moves are what sinks franchises.

Which was worse last year? Offense or Defense? Defense. So what did we need to address that year? Defense. Which is worse this year? Offense. Guess which side we'll most likely address this upcoming draft.

I'm a impatient mofo, but some of you make me want to strangle you. You expect success overnight from a decade (and more) worth of mismanagement.
