Isn't Caleb King that RB who decided to not continue playing for the Bulldogs and go for the supplemental draft...so he didn't get drafted and sat on his couch? That's Turrrrrrrrrible

 

Interested to see this kid get some carries...

 

Not exactly. He was a hyped HS player who didn't do much at UGA. He flunked out and entered the supplemental draft. He was the only other player picked other than Pryor in the draft and has been on the Vikings practice squad all year.

 

well time to draft another RB for minny

 

Trent Richardson at 3? Or do they ignore it and go CB in round one?

 

They need to ignore it and go CB. They can get a good RB in the 2nd or 3rd rd. Plus it's not like Peterson's career is completely over.

 

Thanks for the clarification I wonder what happen to him.

 

What CB is a better value than Trent Richardson?

 

I don't want to play Trent Richardson twice a year :-/
