    NFL organized team activities (yes, that’s what OTA stands for—not offseason training actions—which they are—or over-technical assessments—which may happen–or overtly tubular algorithms—which won’t, since we don’t think they are a thing) began this week. The Vikings players assembled at TCO Performance to reacquaint with each other and get to know the new faces while trying to orient to the Purple way of life. One player who may be doing all of that is second-year quarterback JJ McCarthy.

(Because I suspect that’s where I can really be the first to see it all—on Twitter.)Okay, end of the old man rant.

    The NFL Draft finally arrived, and the Vikings held the 24th pick in the first round. The fans were revved up (when they weren’t fearing that GM Kwesi Adolfo-Mensah would trade the pick) and they got ready to explode at the announcement of the newest Viking. Until they drafted Ohio State Buckeye guard Donovan Jackson. A guard? What? Where is the excitement? But the pick wasn’t a buzzkill.
