More right than wrong for the Vikings, and a B to prove it.

For all the names on the card, the loudest question went unanswered. The Vikings walked out of the weekend still thin at quarterback, a hole that has a way of deciding seasons.

The Trapilo pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. They left with safety solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. The skill positions did well by the weekend.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Luther Burden III
In the 24th pick they get a No. 1 receiver at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick97 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
Ozzy Trapilo at pick 97 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick139 Rnd5 Jonas Sanker
A clean, defensible pick in the 139th overall pick with a little surplus value in Jonas Sanker. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick187 Rnd6 Ollie Gordon II
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Ollie Gordon II at Round 6, Pick 11 is the proof. A need, and now a little less of one.
