2020 Verbal: Grey Zabel

[heffray]

Mel Kiper has Grey going #24 to the Vikings in his latest Mock Draft.


24. Minnesota Vikings
Grey Zabel, G/C, North Dakota State

Interior offensive line is my No. 1 need for the Vikings right now, with guard Dalton Risner hitting free agency and center Garrett Bradbury one year out from potentially doing the same. Enter Zabel, the ultimate swing man who can play anywhere. He played both tackle spots and both guard spots in college, and he took reps at center at the Senior Bowl -- where he quieted any concerns about his level of competition at North Dakota State by dominating. I love his pass-blocking fundamentals, and he's a Round 1-caliber player.

Minnesota could keep its offensive line strong by bringing Zabel in and slotting him wherever he's needed.

The inner struggle of being a Vikings fan - one side of me says this will never happen since the Vikings have never drafted an NDSU guy and, in fact, it's more likely they trade the pick to the Packers or the Lions for them to take Zabel while sending the Vikings a poopoo platter of lesser draft picks. The other side is googling whether an OL has ever won Super Bowl MVP.

And is that answer "It depends on your definition of fly?"

Or could be your definition of "Pig"

If pigs could fly, their wings would be delicious! (credit - some meme I saw).

Sports Illustrated mock

31. Kansas City Chiefs (15–2)
The pick: Grey Zabel, OL, North Dakota State
The Chiefs learned from their humiliating Super Bowl loss that having the best quarterback in the NFL means little if he doesn’t have proper protection. To address this issue, they select the top offensive lineman from the Senior Bowl, Zabel, who can play all five positions on the line. —Michael Canelo

That depends on what your definition of “is” is…

History has shown that the Vikings are as likely to draft a Bison player as they are to win a Super Bowl.
