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

The Vikings spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Kalel Mullings, the No. 114 name on the board, in Round 5, Pick 22.

The Colby reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.

Offensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In the 24th pick they get a load in the middle. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick97 Rnd3 Darien Porter
Steal is underselling it; Darien Porter at pick 97 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick140 Rnd5 Connor Colby
They reached into another round for Connor Colby, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick161 Rnd5 Kalel Mullings
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Kalel Mullings in pick No. 161, plain and simple. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
