Five things the Vikings should do in regards to the NFL Draft

The Vikings should do these five things going forward, in order to not have a down year.

Don’t be afraid to go for the best player, rather than positional fit

The Vikings have a lot of positional needs, so it’s probably tempting for the team to prioritize filling those voids.

However, with the talent in this draft at certain positions, and the number of picks the Vikings have right now, the team shouldn’t be reluctant to take the best player available, rather than focus on filling positional needs each and every time.

Sometimes, a team has to take a talented player rather than one that fits. It also gives Minnesota options in regards to potentially trading a player who’s good, but might not be a starter next season.  Or, the team can trade the incumbent starter, and have the talented rookie rise to the occasion in 2020-21.
