With the first Sunday without football gone, there are only 28 more Sundays to go before the start of the regular season. That 28 becomes a dauntingly high number the more you look at it, so to help mitigate that, we are only one Sunday away from the NFL Scouting Combine, a showcase of over 320+ draft prospects as they look to hear their name called in the 2024 NFL Draft from April 25th-27th (9 Sundays away for those counting).
As we barrel forward into the off-season, there has been an abundance of draft pundits and analysts, ourselves over at Vikings Wire included, that have tried to fit the perfect player with their respective teams. In Tyler Forness’ recent mock draft roundup, he finds the results for the Minnesota Vikings and their projected prospect in 175 mock drafts up to this point, leading to some entertaining results.
Over these 175 data points, 19 players have projected to become Vikings at six unique positions, bringing a different skill set to the purple and gold with each selection. With this, I break down the results and make sense of the limitless possibilities for Minnesota and their 11th pick in this year’s draft.
