Grading the fit for each Vikings player who signed elsewhere

The Vikings let a lot of talent sign elsewhere in free agency. See the best fits for each player on their new team.

Colts CB Xavier Rhodes

Rhodes signed a one-year, $5 million “prove it” deal with Indianapolis.

At one point, Rhodes had a stretch where he was one of the best cornerbacks in the NFL, shutting down Julio Jones, Antonio Brown, Odell Beckham Jr. and other big wide receivers en route to a first-team All-Pro selection.

However, Rhodes has fallen off in recent seasons with the Vikings. In 2019, he had no interceptions and just six pass deflections.

If Rhodes can return to his old self, the Colts got a steal. However, there’s a chance, the 29-year-old isn’t done declining. Indianapolis didn’t break the bank, but it could have paid less.

Grade: B-
