Oregon- Johnson - 6-3 335. Better anchor.
Duke - Barton - 6-5 315. Better athletisism.
Both are likely available in the pick 23 range. Its really doubtful both are gone.
Of note- the idea is circulating in the nfl that teams are realizing IOL has been wrongly under valued in recent years. Is it proof when the top guards & centers were quickly snapped up in free agency?
Id be happy with either center. I keep saying Barton bc the Vikings immdeiate need is at guard, which Barton has played & Barton better fits Vikings outside zone run scheme. Johnsons ability in outside zone is in question.

Both will be long gone by pick 108. More likely than iol for vikings at #23 is one of the DT's.

Murphy is likely gone at 23. Possibly Newton as well. Darrius Robinson fits the body type skill set the vikings have been signing in free agency.
Might be a great fit for how Flores appears to be
Assembling his squad. Taller & quicker over raw strength & girth. He could be a move down target regain the 2nd & 3rd theyre missing.
Kwesi has shown little inclination to remain where he is on draft day.
