    I heard a while ago that the Vikings had interest in Savage.Norv Turner loves his arm! This was before all the hype started so not sure where Savage would be on the Vikings board now.

    I am a PITT grad and former season ticket holder and I must say that this kid has great upside...He can really throw the ball and has underated mobility for his size, nimble, kind of like a Big Ben...I've watched him play and think any team that drafts will be thrilled with ability and maturity.

    The Vikings interest in Savage continues.He was reportedly one of 4 QBs at the Vikings "Top 30" event.The others were TeddyBridgewater,Bryn Renner & Keith Wenning.

    Erik Lambert of NFL Mocks has the Vikings taking Savage in the second round.

    A guy I do like from Pitt is WR Devin Street.I hope the Vikings take a look at him in the mid rounds.

    I agree totally...He is very under-rated...He got hurt for part of the season with PITT...Prior to that, he was burning up the ACC in receptions and yards...He is tall and can run...He was the best WR coming out of high school in PA...I'm a PITT guy and grad and know a lot about him and the other PITT prospects.
