I like it, I like the pick a lot. Fitz is a perfect mentor for this kid, both are Minnesota boys.

Your starting WR duo is a massive 6'3" tall. Putting Roberts and Doucet exactly where they belong in the slot.

Great run blocker as well.

Great pick. We have plenty of playmakers now. Just help the defense and Oline the rest of the draft.

I'm ok with a good #2 WR...Fitz, Floyd, Roberts & Doucet should be a dangerous WR Corps.

Now if we just have a QB that can get him the ball consistently and an OL that can block long enough for that QB to stay upright.

I hope he's as good as Fitz, that way we'll have two excellent receivers we can't throw the ball to. I'd have much rather drafted a pass rusher.

Yep, plenty of playmakers, and the worst pair of OTs in the league. Awesome!

Eh, defense was pretty good second half of last year even without an top level pass rusher. Would be nice, but it's not an absolute need.

Somehow I think if we would have drafted Reiff or another OT you would bitch about that too.

Somehow I think if we drafted a three-legged midget you'd say GREAT PICK! WAY TO GO, MR. GRAVES!

Floyd's a good player. Remember watching the QBs run for their life last year? I'm pretty sure no one we draft in the 4th round is going to solve that problem.

I would have. I don't think any of them are worth the 13 pick. If we had to go offense (line or otherwise) grab the one guy who is going to be a difference maker - DeCastro.

Not happy about Floyd.....

Not because I would rather have Reiff or Decastro, but because I can't stand Floyd and I think he is supremely overrated. I wanted to trade way back.
