It’s been an . . . interesting free-agency period so far for the Vikings.
Those playing elsewhere include Xavier Rhodes, Stefon Diggs, Andrew Sendejo, Trae Waynes, Jayron Kearse, Everson Griffen, Linval Joseph and Mackensie Alexander.
So far, the only free agent addition has been defensive tackle Michael Pierce.
The folks over at Pro Football Focus have given the Vikings a ‘poor’ grade for their free-agent efforts thus far.
That’s not exactly a surprise. The Vikings had their hands tied given their cap situation. They did extend Kirk Cousins and franchise tag Anthony Harris, who they could still trade. And as of now, there are more moves to be made. Per Over The Cap, the Vikings have $14.29 million in cap space yet available.
We’ll have a better idea of how the Vikings come out of all of this after the rest of the pieces fall, and probably more importantly what Rick Spielman decides to do in the draft with 12 picks.
