Draft Grade — Vikings
Overall C+
ValueC- NeedC+ TradesB- FutureB-
Flashes of a plan, unevenly run, for the Vikings: C+.

The Vikings went off the board in a big way for Trey Amos, 26 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another. A mixed bag that lands at C+.

Bond at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.

Job largely done: offensive lineman settled and 2 of 8 of the wish list covered. They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

Hit on Trey Amos and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Trey Amos
In the Round 1 slot they get a press-man option on the boundary, though the board says they badly overpaid. Need was not the driver here.
Pick97 Rnd3 Isaiah Bond
Taking Isaiah Bond in pick 97 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick139 Rnd5 Ben Sauls
They reached a country mile for Ben Sauls at No. 139, and the board is aghast. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick187 Rnd6 Jack Nelson
Jack Nelson slipping to the 187th overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
