Minnesota has kept some of its key talent like safety Anthony Harris in the offseason, but the team hasn’t made huge splashes in free agency.
Bleacher Report has not given the Vikings a passing grade when it comes to free agency.
Bleacher Report said that Minnesota has “experienced a mass exodus” in free agency, giving the Vikings a D-. Here’s more of what it said:
“Xavier Rhodes was a liability in the secondary (106th-ranked corner, per PFF), and Linval Joseph had been providing diminishing productivity (fewer tackles in each of the last three seasons and only 7.5 combined sacks). However, Everson Griffen was productive as a pass-rusher (35 pressures, eight sacks last season), and the secondary will need to be almost entirely rebuilt.”
I mostly agree with this, but what are the Vikings going to do in free agency with the team’s salary cap situation? It’s been good for moves the team could make, and the Vikings can add solid talent in the draft.
