FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Vikings: B. The Vikings did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Luther Burden III fell into slot 36.
They are betting Briningstool proves the room right and everyone else wrong. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss.
The roster is better shaped than it was, with safety chief among the fixes.
All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.
Pick Analysis
Pick36
Rnd2
Luther Burden III
Luther Burden III at pick 36 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick88
Rnd3
Dylan Fairchild
Dylan Fairchild in the 88th overall pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick97
Rnd3
Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba slipping to the Round 3 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick107
Rnd4
Danny Stutsman
Danny Stutsman at the 107th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick126
Rnd4
Billy Bowman Jr.
They let Billy Bowman Jr. come to them and pounced at slot 126. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick139
Rnd5
Jake Briningstool
They talked themselves into Jake Briningstool at Round 5, Pick 1, and the board did not agree. It fills a real need, too.
Pick142
Rnd5
Raheim Sanders
They paid sticker price for Raheim Sanders in pick No. 142, and that is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick182
Rnd6
RJ Harvey
RJ Harvey in No. 182 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick187
Rnd6
JJ Pegues
JJ Pegues at the 187th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the interior defensive lineman. The roster fit checks out.
Pick194
Rnd6
Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Dont'e Thornton Jr. at pick 194. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick221
Rnd7
Cam Jackson
A straight-up fair deal on Cam Jackson at the Round 7 slot, value and slot in agreement. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
