Maybe you folks saw a viral clip from Tai Felton’s draft day that showed his raw emotion and celebration. I was curious about where the video came from so I tracked down the director @byAlbertTong turns out there’s a great story behind it www.purpleinsider.football/p/the-story-...

In 1999, Mike Patrick called one of @RandyMoss ‘s iconic moments, his punt return for touchdown. I talked to special teams coach Gary Zauner and producer Fred Gaudelli about the play and the subtle brilliance and joy of Mike Patrick t.co/BWWcDh6r3D

Everyone loves the idea of trading down but Kwesi Adofo-Mensah mentioned a few factors that might be a holdup. I looked into the math, called a data guy and tried to get a real sense of whether trading down is really the right play for the Vikings www.purpleinsider.football/p/does-the-m...

The other day I rewatched the Vikings 2003 missed pick debacle draft. Yesterday I decided to look back at Justin Jefferson’s slide in 2020. Let’s just say I forgot a LOT about that night and some of it hit harder than I expected t.co/ukG5zKMQ9i

J.J. McCarthy's time is now... right? The #Vikings did flirt with Aaron Rodgers but they're giving the keys to the 22-year-old Michigan man. Let's make sense of it all on the Go Long Pod with a recurring guest: @matthewcoller.bsky.social. -> www.golongtd.com/p/gl-pod-jj-...
