Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall
B-
ValueB-
NeedA-
TradesB-
FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Vikings: B-. There is a lot to like until you notice quarterback is still a hole. The Vikings never got to the one that mattered most. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.
Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.
Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.
Pick Analysis
Pick18
Rnd1
Olaivavega Ioane
In the Round 1 slot they get a blindside protector. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick49
Rnd2
Gabe Jacas
Gabe Jacas in the 49th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
