Draft Grade — Vikings

Good, not great, for the Vikings: B-.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Vikings were there to profit. Jake Slaughter, the No. 57 name on the board, should have been long gone before the 82nd pick.

Spears-Jennings has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with safety the one that mattered most. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Avieon Terrell
In Round 1, Pick 18 they get a ballhawk on the outside. More want than need.
Pick49 Rnd2 Caleb Banks
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Caleb Banks at the 49th pick. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick82 Rnd3 Jake Slaughter
Circle this one: Jake Slaughter at pick 82 is a fall that decides a draft. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick97 Rnd3 Jacob Rodriguez
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Jacob Rodriguez in the Round 3 slot, plain and simple. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick161 Rnd5 Tanner Koziol
They did well to land Tanner Koziol in No. 161, just ahead of his grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick194 Rnd6 Le'Veon Moss
They went early on Le'Veon Moss in the 194th pick, and the value did not follow. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick234 Rnd7 Robert Spears-Jennings
Robert Spears-Jennings at the 234th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick240 Rnd7 Kaden Wetjen
Kaden Wetjen in pick No. 240 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The roster fit checks out.
