Reheheheheh DRAFTING FOR THEVikings
Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall
C

FutureB-
A mixed bag for the Vikings, and a C to match. They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Steve Linton, 318 picks early at pick 97.
For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain. The roster is better shaped than it was, with edge rusher chief among the fixes.
The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.
Hit on Tyler Booker and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.
Pick Analysis
Pick24
Rnd1
Tyler Booker
In the 24th pick they get a plug-and-play piece up front, even if it was a touch early. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick97
Rnd3
Steve Linton
A big swing on Steve Linton at pick No. 97, well ahead of any board in the building. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick139
Rnd5
Jermari Harris
They reached a country mile for Jermari Harris at the Round 5 slot, and the board is aghast. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick187
Rnd6
Justin Walley
Justin Walley at Round 6, Pick 11 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
