***2024 Minnesota Vikings***

He was cut from the Vikings last year. Although he made just over $800K from 2020-2022 with the Vikings. Not a bad payday for a clipboard holder.
Assuming taking out agent fees and taxes, but still a nice chunk of change to start your post college life
Even though a team may have a top 5 pick, they still have to select the correct player. For example, I think Chicago regrets drafting Mitch Trubisky at #2 in 2017 instead of Mahomes who went #10. Or what about the Browns who selected Baker Mayfield #1 and the Jets who selected Sam Darnold #3 in 2018 ahead of Josh Allen who went #10? Then the Jets doubled down and went with Zack Wilson #2 in 2021!
The point being is even though a team has a high draft pick, it does not guarantee they will select the proper player.
Edit: what qb in this draft class would you be excited to get? It seems on the surface this qb class is deep, but there's really not a "gotta have" type of player. Certainly not a class where you feel you need to tank to get someone IMHO

He’s gone now. My Viking fandom has cooled considerably in the last 5 years, especially now with Brock doing his thing but I still can’t quit the Vikings. But if Purple Fat Stanley was the guy in Minnesota… then I’m out.
I think Fat Stanley now delivers pizza to CHA for men's basketball games.
Wow #22 Smith looked like he was napping on that play. He stood there as the kid blew by him, lucky pass was a foot to long.
