Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall C+
ValueC- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Vikings landed square in the muddy middle: C+.

The Vikings looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Connor Colby at the 139th pick regardless, 47 picks early. Some smart calls, some head-scratchers, and a C+ in the wash.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. Blue falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

If Benjamin Morrison and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Benjamin Morrison
In Round 1, Pick 24 they get a press-man option on the boundary, though they paid up to get him. More want than need.
Pick97 Rnd3 Jordan James
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jordan James. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick139 Rnd5 Connor Colby
They talked themselves into Connor Colby at the 139th pick, and the board did not agree. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick187 Rnd6 Jaydon Blue
Jaydon Blue slipping to pick No. 187 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
