Though I like Meachem and both Dwaynes, I think Meachem is my favorite choice of mid 1st round receivers. Supposedly a character guy too.

I'd be pretty satisfied with a trade down to the back quarter of the first and get Meahchem, or ideally still be able to snag him at the 7 spot in the second. He has all the physical tools and really broke out when he got the chance to start as a junior. He seems like a guy that should keep improving with NFL quality coaching (if we have that). It is good to see he is getting a serious look.

Sadly, I think 7 is too much of a reach for him. But I wholeheartedly agree with anyone who believes this guy has the potential to be a top-flight NFL receiver. Good size, good hands, tremendous work ethic.... and character doesn't even BEGIN to describe this Jesus-loving cowboy. If it's at all possible to trade back for him, I'd love it. Question is: How far back would you have to go so that you don't miss out on him or spend too much?

Dave: It looks like Meachem would be a decent value anywhere from 16 to 25 and steal anywhere after that according to the "experts." I would love to see the Vikes get back that far, take Meachem, and amass picks to address their general lack of depth at many positions.
