Today's prospect of the day is Monty Rice, LB out of Georgia. He's a possible mid-round rotational LB who could even develop to compete for a starting role if Anthony Barr vacates it. But most of the show addresses the dichotomy of Best Player Available vs. Need. Do you take the best player, or try to fill a hole? More often than not, the question of who to draft is so much more complicated than that, the question is just a waste of time.

On today's show, we're contending with the idea that Rashod Hill has possibly gotten better than we think. We'll talk about what that means, and how to responsibly approach that conversation. Hear me out on this one- it's always good to double check the priors you're even the most sure of.

The Vikings are in a bad, bad spot at edge rusher. Edge is my favorite destination in round 1, and here's why. We'll talk about Stephen Weatherly and D.J. Wonnum and how they're not good enough to rely on in camp competition. Plus, the edge rushers in the draft are really exciting. It's a match made in heaven.

On today's show, we're going to address Jeff Gladney's arrest and the dynamics surrounding domestic violence and NFL fandom. We all have to have a look in the mirror, and that's okay. There's also a Twitter Tuesday mailbag where we catch up on old draft questions.

On today's show, we're talking about the prospect of the day, Tre' McKitty, TE Georgia. The Vikings could use a late round tight end, and McKitty might just fit the bill. Most of the show will be dedicated to the slot corner position. Mackensie Alexander, Jeff Gladney and Mike Hughes all exist in this one spot- but they do a lot more than just covering the 3rd wide receiver.
