Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall A-
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesA FutureB
The Vikings won the night they stopped Johnson from sliding. Grade: A-.

Somebody in the 97th overall pick was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Vikings sat still while Kaleb Johnson, the No. 39 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. A near-flawless weekend of work, and a A- to cap it.

They will need Griffith to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend.

For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain.

In the end it comes back to Nick Emmanwori, and a haul good enough to build on right away.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In pick 30 they get an enforcer at safety at a price that makes it sweeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick97 Rnd3 Kaleb Johnson
You do not let a running back like Kaleb Johnson reach Round 3, Pick 33 and blink. They did not. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick173 Rnd5 Dorian Strong
They let Dorian Strong come to them and pounced at the Round 5 slot. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick234 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
Thor Griffith at No. 234 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
