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

There is a lot to like until you notice quarterback is still a hole. The Vikings never got to the one that mattered most.

On value alone, Gordon II makes the weekend a net positive. They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In No. 24 they get a ballhawk on the outside. More want than need.
Pick97 Rnd3 Savion Williams
They did well to land Savion Williams in the 97th overall pick, just ahead of his grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick139 Rnd5 Jonas Sanker
A tidy little value on Jonas Sanker in the 139th pick, a step better than break-even. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick187 Rnd6 Ollie Gordon II
Ollie Gordon II at slot 187 is money in the bank, a running back taken below his worth. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
