And teams are always looking for pass rushers — especially in a stacked class like this one — despite having the talents of Everson Griffen, Danielle Hunter and Stephen Weatherly on the roster.
“Overall, it’s a very solid roster, so they don’t have to reach for anything. … The best organizations think more broadly,” said Adam Caplan of SiriusXM Radio. “They’re thinking not for one year but three, four years down the road, and that’s why I think defensive end would make a lot of sense there.”
No matter which direction Spielman, Zimmer and the rest of the Vikings go in the first round, it’s a safe bet that they will have plenty of high-level players to choose from.
At worst, the Vikings end up with a top-20 player to help make an immediate impact in 2019.
And if a run on one position group pushes talent down the board, Minnesota could end up with a top-5 or top-10 player down at pick No. 18.
“I don’t know… tight end, offensive line, best player available. Probably not corner, but you never know,” opined NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport. “They can do whatever they want – it’s a great position.”
