With the No. 23 pick in the 2013 Cincy Jungle Mock Draft, Palewook selected for the Minnesota Vikings, and with the 23rd overall pick, the Vikings select...
Sylvester Williams, DT, North Carolina
From Palewook:
The Vikings need to rebuild their defensive line. Kevin Williams is approaching 33, an eleven year veteran with a slowing motor. Scheduled to make 7 million in 2013 and 2014, he'll be a cap casualty in 2014. Drafting a true 3-technique successor to Williams is a major draft priority in 2013. Giving the rookie a year to adjust to the NFL game speed while offering an insurance policy against Kevin William's 33 year old body.
The younger Sylvester offers a big body with big arms and the ability to pressure the QB.A sure tackler with a mean streak. He'll could thrive in a 3-4 or a 4-3. In the Vikings 4-3, he'll continue the tradition of the "Williams Wall."
