The Minnesota Vikings are a fascinating team to watch in the NFL Draft. They are in line to trade up for a quarterback of the future. With that comes a lot of different proposals and outcomes in the NFL Draft.
What happens if they end up making a trade up? It’s an interesting discussion since there are multiple teams that are possibly willing to trade down to acquire more capital. Hoever, there are other options that are worth discussing.
The Vikings could end up taking a defensive player at 11th overall with a Michael Penix Jr. at 23rd overall.
What is the best option for the future of the Vikings? Is it waiting for a quarterback to fall to them or jumping up to get that player? The difficult part of the conversation is that we don’t know who the Vikings like at the position.
If they like Penix, Bo Nix or Spencer Rattler, waiting it out might be their best bet. It’s hard to say until we know who they do prioritize in the class.
There are a lot of things that can happen during the NFL Draft. We discussed those topics and more on The Real Forno Show as a catchup on all things Vikings.
Remember Laremy Tunsil and the gas mask bong? It’s happened once, it can happen again.
the Minnesota Vikings traded for an extra first-round pick last week, but CBS Sports’ mock draft experts predict that was just a prelude to an even bigger move.
The Vikings own picks 11 and 23, the latter thanks to a trade with the Texans.
While they could certainly stand pat and take two first-rounders, the consensus thinking is they’ll package those picks — and probably more — to move up higher and take a quarterback.
Kirk Cousins left for the Atlanta Falcons in free agency, and though the team signed Sam Darnold as a short-term replacement, he’s not the future for the franchise.
