Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall C+
ValueB- NeedB- TradesC FutureB-
The jury is out on the Vikings. For now, C+.

For all the boxes ticked, the Vikings skipped the loudest one: quarterback is exactly as bare as it was. A mixed bag that lands at C+.

They were the ones paying the moving tax this weekend. Safety is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

Bottom line, the swing picks will decide whether this ages well.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Colton Hood
In pick No. 22 they get a potential shutdown corner. Need was not the driver here.
Pick49 Rnd2 Josiah Trotter
No edge and no loss on Josiah Trotter in the 49th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick82 Rnd3 Zakee Wheatley
They paid sticker price for Zakee Wheatley in pick 82, and that is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick97 Rnd3 Emmett Johnson
They did well to land Emmett Johnson in No. 97, just ahead of his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
