Passed on more talented players. Opted for versatility for players that are average but have position flexability. Passed on obtaining a QB of the future even when they didnt have to give up picks to move. Many picks were reaches for potential rather than drafting top talent at the position. Loved the final pick with the RB out of UAB but the rest of the draft was questionable at best.

I consider TJ Hockinson part of this draft as well, who is a great scheme fit and Uber talented. The vikings are going to be able to run the ball better ( we signed the best blocking tight end in football, and have continuity on the O-line.
I might also consider that the top 2 picks from last year's draft essentially redshirt as Lewis cinema and Andrew Booth hardly played.
Too many people pay attention to splashy moves. And that all they care about. I can't wait to see what our D looks like this year, and I'm sure we will be in the top 20. You can get stars in the top 10 and also busts. We are still living with tight cap restrictions due to the bog contracts handed out for zimmers legacy players. 1 draft doesn,t make a team folks.

Terrible draft, players are undersized and not athletic enough for their positions, this is what happens when you draft for need instead of the best available players.

Worst draft in NFL history, this team will be drafting first next year

I hope I am wrong but it looks like this is going to be another tough year for Vikings fans! Last year they won majority of close games so regular season was good …. and pretty misleading as evidenced in playoffs.
So lets say they just split the close games, they may or may not even get wildcard as the parity in NFC is pretty good!
Did I mention the defense????
SKOL!
