Packer Fans Are Upset About the Vikings Taking Eric Kendricks
By Dan Zinski
Viking fans are very happy about the team drafting linebacker Eric Kendricks in the second round (and one Vikings player is VERY VERY happy). What makes the pick even more delicious for Viking fans is how upset Packer fans are at losing out on the UCLA stud.

Apparently the Cheeseheads had their eye on Kendricks as someone they could plug into the middle of their awful defense, allowing Clay Matthews to move back outside where he belongs. But the Vikings snatched Kendricks before Green Bay could get their grubby hands on him and Packer fans aren’t too happy.
Twitter is filled with comments like these from disappointed Packer fans who will now have to watch Eric Kendricks man the middle for the Vikings.
@nelsonar22 @Packers_Stuff Same, him or Kendricks. Very disappointed.

I could go on posting these all day. Packer fans are really irate that Ted Thompson didn’t move up and snag Kendricks. Viking fans are ecstatic that Thompson sat back and let him fall to their team.
