The first wave of free agency has come and gone. The Minnesota Vikings didn't land the White Whales the fanbase wanted (Kelechi Osemele or George Iloka), but I think we're fine settling for the White Rhino in Alex Boone. We dive into him as well as the other depth free agent signing the Purple made. I also take a look at other potential Vikings still on the market and what the plan should be with our own unrestricted free agents.

Alex Boone, COME ON DOWN!NFL free agency is upon us and Rick Spielman is doing his Rick thing, eschewing the mega deals and finding valuable comprables at a fraction of the price. Rick is indeed the TJ Maxx of the NFL and I love that. Making It Rain (Responsibly) Talking Points Include:• Retaining Our Own Free Agents is Smart• Hello, Alex Boone• Matt Kalil Remains a Viking (Good?)• What the Vikings Offensive Line May Look Like• Good Teams Don't Overspend in Open Free Agency• This Doesn't Change Anything in the Draft• Twitter/Facebook QuestionsAll that and other "In Rick We Trust" nonsense on this edition of the Purple FTW!

Erin Andrews got justice in her peephole stalker case. Now the minor details of collecting through years of stalls and appeals. Speaking of collecting, a number of NFL players are starting to collect in free agency (looking at you, Malik Jackson and Kelechi Osemele). Basically a delicious hodge podge of sports randomness today. Just how Andy likes it. Spicy.All that and more on this edition of The Andy Carlson Show!Today's Five Things Are• Erin Andrews Awarded $55M in Peephole Lawsuit• Maria Sharapova Tests Positive for PEDs• Video of Brock Osweiler Shoving Woman Surfaces• DeAngelo Williams Sharts on Peyton Manning• Eagles Trade Byron Maxwell and Kiko Alonso to the DolphinsAn Andy Carlson JointFollow us on Twitter: @AndyCarlsonShow - http://twitter.com/AndyCarlsonShowVisit the Website: http://andycarlsonshow.comiTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/andy-carlson-show/id1078336922Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/andycarlsonshow/Stitcher: http://stitcher.com/s?fid=81877&refid=stprBookmark us on Amazon & show some love: http://andycarlsonshow.com/amazonMusic for the Andy Carlson Show is created by & produced by deeB.To hear more of his tracks, check out http://soundcloud.com/deeb

Mock Drafts. So hot right now. That's why I teamed up with the smartest draft mind in the South Metro Luke Inman (@Luke_Spinman) and did one up. Parameters are simple: We alternated picks for the first round of the draft and come on the show to talk about our thought process behind our selections. Luke's reasoning is in-depth and studied, while mine has as much logic behind it as the secretary in your office always winning the March Madness Pool by picking winners based on their mascot. Yeah...

All that and other "With the First Pick...." nonsense on this edition of the Purple FTW! Podcast.
