Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Vikings did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

There is reaching, and then there is Max Brosmer at pick No. 245. The Vikings jumped the board by 68 and dared it to prove them wrong. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Spears-Jennings. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
They did well to land Omarion Hampton in Round 2, Pick 1, just ahead of his grade. It fills a real need, too.
Pick94 Rnd3 Omarr Norman-Lott
Omarr Norman-Lott in the 94th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick97 Rnd3 Jake Majors
They paid a round early for Jake Majors in slot 97, more than the board wanted. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick133 Rnd4 O'Donnell Fortune
A tidy little value on O'Donnell Fortune in No. 133, a step better than break-even. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick140 Rnd5 Tory Horton
Steal is underselling it; Tory Horton at the Round 5 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The roster fit checks out.
Pick161 Rnd5 Connor Colby
Connor Colby in the 161st pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick176 Rnd5 Robert Spears-Jennings
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Robert Spears-Jennings in No. 176, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick185 Rnd6 Logan Brown
Circle this one: Logan Brown at pick No. 185 is a fall that decides a draft. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick230 Rnd7 Cody Lindenberg
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Cody Lindenberg well ahead of where he belonged. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick245 Rnd7 Max Brosmer
Value said wait; Max Brosmer in the Round 7 slot says they were not listening. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
