On the surface, the idea of taking a quarterback with the #1 overall pick isn’t necessarily a strange one.It does, however, become strange when you throw in the fact that the Cardinals drafted a quarterback in the first round in last year’s draft as well, even trading up in order to do so.The Cardinals selected Josh Rosen with the 10th overall selection in the 2018 NFL Draft, giving the Oakland Raiders a third-round pick and a fifth-round pick to move up five spots in Round 1. He didn’t necessarily light the world on fire in his rookie season, but he didn’t exactly have a ton of help. . .after all http://www.thevikingslockerroom.com/authentic-mike-hughes-jersey , there’s a reason that the Cardinals are picking #1 overall this April.If the Cardinals really are in the Kyler Murray sweepstakes, it’s tough to imagine that they’d keep Rosen around, and it’s also tough to imagine that Rosen would be thrilled with such a scenario. That means the Cardinals would be looking to trade Rosen away. Is this something that the Minnesota Vikings should, potentially, be involved in?I think so. Here’s why.We know that Kirk Cousins has a huge contract, but that contract only runs through the end of the 2020 season. With the way Rosen’s contract is structured, he could be had for a relative pittance. The reason for that is that, in the event of a trade Womens Tom Compton Jersey , the Cardinals would have to eat his signing bonus, leaving very little (comparatively) in salary to pay out. Here are his salary cap figures for the duration of his contract, courtesy of Over the Cap.For reference, Trevor Siemian had a cap hit of just under $2 million last season, and I think most of us would be more comfortable with Josh Rosen taking snaps in the event of something happening to Cousins than we would be with Siemian. I would be, anyway.If you could get Rosen on board with being Cousins’ backup with the inside track to being the heir apparent in a couple of seasons, you’ve given yourself some options. If Cousins turns a corner over the course of the next couple of seasons, you re-sign him Kyle Rudolph Jersey , and then you can either keep Rosen around as a backup or get some sort of compensation for him down the road. If that doesn’t happen, Rosen would have a season to audition for the long-term job in 2021 before the Vikings would have to decide whether or not to pick up his fifth-year option. . .and if he plays well enough for the Vikings to pick up his option, you’d have to think that would be a good thing.I’m not sure what the Cardinals would want an exchange for Josh Rosen in a trade. Nobody is even 100% sure that said trade is actually going to happen. But if the Cardinals do go down that road, I think it’s certainly something the Vikings should be interested in doing.What say you, folks? What’s gotten into Rick Spielman?" />Skip to main contentclockmenumore-arrownoyesHorizontal - WhiteDaily Norsemana Minnesota Vikings communityLog In or Sign UpLog InSign UpFanpostsFanshotsSectionsLibraryVikingsOddsShopAboutMastheadCommunity GuidelinesStubHubMoreAll 322 blogs on Horizontal - WhiteFanposts Fanshots Sections Vikings 2018 SeasonVikings 2019 OffseasonU.S. Bank StadiumMinnesota Vikings PodcastsFiled under:Minnesota Vikings 2019 NFL Draft2019 NFL Draft Trades: Vikings trade with New York JetsNew,63commentsWhat’s gotten into Rick Spielman?CDTShareTweetShareShare2019 NFL Draft Trades: Vikings trade with New York JetsPhoto by Hannah Foslien/Getty ImagesWe’ve got a third consecutive trade for the Minnesota Vikings, as this time they deal with the New York Jets.Trade between the Minnesota Vikings and New York JetsMinnesota Vikings receive: Round 3, Pick #29 (#93 overall) - Traded to Baltimore Ravens http://www.thevikingslockerroom.com/authentic-nick-easton-jersey , Round 7, Pick #3 (#215 overall)New York Jets receive: Round 3, Pick #28 (#92 overall) - Chuma Edoga, OT, Southern CalFor more on the Jets’ perspective on this trade, check out Gang Green Nation.The Vikings have moved down just one spot in the third round, going from #92 to #93 overall. In exchange for this, the Vikings have picked up an extra seventh-round pick Laquon Treadwell Jersey , #217 overall, which is the third pick in the seventh round.The Jets then used that third round pick to select Chuma Edoga, an offensive tackle from the University of Southern California.I’m hoping that we get to the point where the Vikings actually make another pick here, but we’ll see how that goes. This is three trades in three picks for the Vikings, so we’ll see what Rick Spielman and company want to do here.Whatever the Vikings do, we’ll have full coverage of it right here at The Daily Norseman, so keep your browsers pointed right here and keep hammering that refresh button until Steve Jordan announced the Vikings’ third-round pick.We think.We hope.Eventually.At some point.
