Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall B+
ValueA NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB
The Vikings let Majors fall into their laps, and walked away with a B+.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Jake Majors tumbling to the Vikings in No. 138 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B+.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. They left with safety solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick39 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Nick Emmanwori in the 39th pick, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick72 Rnd3 Tyler Booker
Somehow Tyler Booker was still sitting there in slot 72, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick97 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
Taking TreVeyon Henderson in Round 3, Pick 33 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick138 Rnd5 Jake Majors
Jake Majors in the Round 5 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick159 Rnd5 Dorian Strong
A straight-up fair deal on Dorian Strong at pick No. 159, value and slot in agreement. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
