Biggest steal: James Lynch
I like a lot of what the Vikings did in the NFL Draft this offseason. The team went about acquiring talent in the later rounds, players who could come in and possibly work their way up the depth chart.
One of the players who has the capability to do that is Lynch, a defensive tackle out of Baylor. Lynch would be a nice complement to Michael Pierce, who is a big-bodied, run stopping defensive tackle.
Lynch wasn’t terrible in stopping the run at Baylor by any means, but he’s more of a quick defensive tackle who can shoot the gap and bring pressure in the backfield. Lynch definitely has some competition for a starting spot on the interior of the defensive line, but we’ll see if he turns out to be a big contributor in 2020.
