The Vikings have plenty of options to choose from with their two first-round picks.
The team could hang onto them and try to add value that way, or work out a trade in order to move up or down in the draft. Moving up makes it more likely that Minnesota can draft talent it likes, but moving back would likely garner more picks or at least more assets.
Whether it’s moving up or down, Vikings general manager Rick Spielman is fielding offers.
“I’ve had calls already, opportunities of people trying to trade up, and I’ve also had teams that are in front of us that wanted to trade back,” general manager Rick Spielman told ESPN and other outlets. “I think it all depends how the draft board unfolds on Thursday. For example, I would say if we stay at 22, and we have maybe seven or eight names still up there, to move back from 25 to gain another pick and still get the same quality of player.”
