So my Vikes picked both of those guys and I have some questions for you hawg fans
1. What do see Wright's role as?
2. Do you think Childs can come back from his knee injury?
2a. Can Childs be a #1 WR in the NFL?

1. Slot and return guy.
2. Yes. He was close to 100% finally in the Cotton Bowl and he finally looked like the Childs of old.
3. If he stays healthy there is not a doubt in my mind that he can be a #1.

Hard to say with Wright, he is very fast and has good hands. He will most likely be streaking across the middle of the field. His size is will be his biggest handicap.
Childs could be a stud, and could be the steal of the draft. He looked pretty timid coming off his injury early this year, but looked better towards the end of the season. The coaches admitted he never was a full 100% last season.

I was pissed when the Vikings got both these guys. Great pickups, now I have to hate the Vikings a little less

1. What do see Wright's role as?
Wright is the ultimate team player who goes all out on every play. He loves making blocks for other receivers/RB's down field. He's strong for his size, and extremely fast. The guy just gets open and makes plays, very reliable.

2. Do you think Childs can come back from his knee injury?
He's back IMO. He's going to do some serious damage in the NFL if he has a good QB to get him the ball. Height, strength, speed, and ability to make acrobatic catches - everything you could ask for in a WR.

1. What do see Wright's role as?
Returns, reciever in the nickel offense
2. Do you think Childs can come back from his knee injury?
yes
2a. Can Childs be a #1 WR in the NFL
Define # 1 Maclin had more grabs in Philly does that make him # 1 over DeSean Jackson ?

Those 2 made Casey Dick look like a pretty good QB, that's good enough for anybody. Vikes fans should be happy with these 2, they are nasty blocking on the run and downfield too, should help Peterson out as well.

1. I love Wright, but I don't know if he'll be the #1 guy. Great slot guy with speed and excellent route running ability though. Size definitely leaves something to be desired.
2. I would hope so. He looked good in the Cotton Bowl, but I would like to see him back a bit more healthy before I say he's completely back.
2a. I'm not sure. He's got great size (not as freakishly big as Larry Fitzgerald or Calvin Johnson), but decently big. However, his top speed isn't phenomenal, but it's decent. I think he'll be a phenomenal possession receiver, but #1 receiver still remains to be seen.
That being said, both players are VERY intelligent and know football quite well. If they can't out-talent the competition, they can definitely out-work them.

I'd like to know why Crow Pie hasn't chimed in on this to remind us that neither of these WR's won the SEC or a National Championship while at Arkansas.
Wright, as been covered a completely unselfish player. Will go over the middle, will block, and has great hands.
Childs is an amazing talent. The only thing I didn't like about Childs was he'd make a one handed grab and drop a screen pass at times. Joe had the dropsies sometimes too. Childs can absolutely be a #1 guy.

1. Slot guy
2. Yes, but to me he was the least talented WR Arky had. I'm not convinced he would have kept his starting job.
2a. No
