The Minnesota Vikings have done a great job replacing key playmakers they lost last season and through the current offseason. Kwesi Adofo-Mensah has been busy; the roster is looking up, but they still have more work to do.
The NFL draft is 16 days from now, and several players could be drafted to play pivotal roles.
On defense, the team is getting a facelift, and it looks good. The linebacking group has several new faces in the clubhouse. The defensive line group returns most but has a new leader. The secondary still has Harrison Smith, but they are in need a cornerback heading into the draft, as you will see.
What does the whole picture look like, though? See for yourself.
The Minnesota Vikings are in a position where the quarterback position is in flux for the 2024 season and beyond.
Kirk Cousins’ contract voids out on March 15th and the NFL draft has some potential options, including Washington’s Michael Penix Jr. What ends up happening will come to fruition over the next few months and it could be any number of directions.
Wide receiver Justin Jefferson was asked about the quarterback position and his answer was simple: it’s not in my control.
“It’s not really in my control…I’m confident they’re going to make the right decision up there (front office). If it’s Kirk (Cousins), perfect. If it’s whoever they choose, it’s not my decision. I’m always going to continue to just be myself regardless and just play my best ball whenever I’m out there on the field.”
