7-Round mock draft 7.0: Vikings double dip in round one

In a trade-up scenario, who should the Vikings be looking to get in the first-round?

Over the course of this series, I have explored a myriad of situations. Some of them are likely and make complete sense, while others are relatively outlandish.

The only two things we know about the Vikings front office going into the draft are:

  1. The Wilfs don’t want a rebuild and want to remain competitive
  2. Kwesi Adofo-Mensah knows how to maximize the markets

In this mock, we explore trading back into the first round. While unlikely, if a top player at a position of need is available, don’t count that potential out.

I love mock drafts.

These aren’t trying to be predictive in a vacuum but rather be predictive based on the situation. Each of the first five editions of these mock drafts have done just that, and this one is no different.

There is a high likelihood of a top talent being available at No. 12. Would the Minnesota Vikings take a great player at a position they don’t need? This explores that exact scenario.
