I don't think I believe this. Sounds like just a stretch to create drama right before the draft.

I think they should take Claiborne, but I'm nobody. Seems like they want out of that spot, though.

@AdamSchefter Here we go: Vikes GM Rick Spielman said trade talk at No. 3 is "heating up....There is enough that there is a potential for a trade."

I think Claiborne is a great prospect, I just don't think there's any way he's #3 worthy. He's not even the best CB in this draft. He's just got far less character issues than the guy who is the best.

I think the Vikings want out of that #3 pick really bad.

Hahaha! Smacks of desperation, no?

Also, interesting to note the following tweet regarding Michael Floyd from Albert Breer, though you should take all info leading up to the draft with a grain of salt:

@AlbertBreer Interesting making calls around tonite ... 1 that fascinated me: Exec told me he thinks a number of clubs have Floyd graded above Blackmon.

I agree, I think Claiborne will be a stud. Plus in this pass happy NFL today you need a stud CB.

Since there are going to be all sorts of rumors the day before the draft:


ones now about the Jets trading up to 3rd,4th, or 5th to get Trent Richardson


though the GM says "no current plans to trade up"...rumor's going based on his past history and the Jets checking with richardson regarding his contact information
