The Vikings were interested in PJ Hall during the 2018 pre-Draft process and he was a Top 30 visit ( link). At this point, with being drafted in the 2nd Rd and only producing 1.5 sacks, 48 combined tackles and 7 QB hits in 18 starts (out of 30 games played), he's probably considered a "bust"... But, that "bust" is for the Raiders who invested that 2nd rounder - we only invested a conditional 7th rounder... The Raiders clearly overdrafted him in the 2nd, even moreso when Mayock became their GM as he didn't have Hall in his Top 100 prospects in 2018 ( link) so he was immediately in Mayock's "doghouse" from a prospect he didn't feel was worthy of his draft status. Honestly, with what little the Vikings gave up for him, even if Hall doesn't pan out we didn't lose anything. The best we can hope for is that he's another "Nick Easton" which was a nice little "win" for Spielman after he traded a 7th for him and Easton ended up a solid OL player during his time in Minnesota. Don't mind the trade at all...although we have such a mish-mosh of interior DT players w/ Pierce out that I'm not sure we're stopping the run up the gut very much again this season.... |

It's a good thing the pick Rick gave up was a "conditional" 7th rounder... |

This sounds like old buddies Rick and Mayock just having a little fun. Mayock doesn't have to cut a second round draft pick and Rick just picks up one more camp body.

Trade reversed due to physical reasons.
