Draft Grade — Vikings

The Vikings land in the muddy middle: C+.

There is reaching, and then there is Joshua Gray at slot 139. The Vikings jumped the board by 51 and dared it to prove them wrong.

The Sampson pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Hit on Benjamin Morrison and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Benjamin Morrison
In pick 24 they get a lockdown presence outside, though the board says they badly overpaid.
Pick97 Rnd3 Dylan Sampson
Steal is underselling it; Dylan Sampson at the Round 3 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick139 Rnd5 Joshua Gray
A real head-scratcher, Joshua Gray in Round 5, Pick 1 is miles ahead of his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick160 Rnd5 Andres Borregales
Andres Borregales slipping to the 160th overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
