After circling the position for what felt like forever, the Vikings committed. J.J. McCarthy is the quarterback now, and the roster gets built to his timeline.
The McCarthy pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.
Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.
Pick-by-Pick
In slot 11 they get the face of the franchise, though the board says they badly overpaid. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
No edge and no loss on Kool-Aid McKinstry in pick No. 23; it is a wash and a sensible one. A minor need, but a need all the same.
