Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB- TradesC FutureB
The Vikings kept it disciplined and banked a B.

The weekend has a hole in the middle of it named quarterback, a need the Vikings walked right past.

That Barron pick is the receipt they will wave around later. The dealing tilted against them, just enough to notice.

Job largely done: safety settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Jahdae Barron
In the Round 1 slot they get a sticky cover corner, and a steal at that.
Pick97 Rnd3 Devin Neal
Devin Neal slid further than he should have, and pick No. 97 is lovely value for the running back. It fills a real need, too.
Pick139 Rnd5 Darius Alexander
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Darius Alexander at slot 139. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick196 Rnd6 Jaylen Reed
They read the board right and Jaylen Reed was the payoff at No. 196. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick225 Rnd7 Hayden Conner
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Hayden Conner in the 225th overall pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
