McCarthy is the plan now, and the Vikings grade out a B-.

They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. J.J. McCarthy is the Vikings' quarterback, full stop.

For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. Reaching for McCarthy left real value on the table behind him.

They went 2 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 J.J. McCarthy
In Round 1, Pick 11 they get the arm they will build around, a steep price for the projection. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick42 Rnd2 Braden Fiske
They jumped the gun on Braden Fiske, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A need, and now a little less of one.
