The Vikings won the night they stopped Farmer from sliding. Grade: B+. The board owed the Vikings one, and it paid up: Joshua Farmer, the No. 122 name on the board, sitting there at the 161st overall pick like a gift left on the doorstep. The bottom line is a respectable B+.
The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same. They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.
Pick Analysis
Pick30
Rnd1
Nick Emmanwori
In pick 30 they get a centerfielder for the defense, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick97
Rnd3
Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo in the Round 3 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick140
Rnd5
Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson in pick No. 140 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick161
Rnd5
Joshua Farmer
Joshua Farmer in the 161st pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
