Vikings’ 2021 1st-round pick is set

The Vikings will have their highest pick since 2015.

After beating the Lions in Week 17, the Vikings ended the 2020 season with a 7-9 record.

Because of that, the Vikings are set to draft 14th in the 2021 NFL Draft.

It’s the highest 1st-round pick the team has had since 2015 when the Vikings drafted Trae Waynes.

It will be the third team in team history the team will pick 14th overall. In 1986 the team drafted defensive end Gerald Robinson and in 1987 the team drafted running back D.J. Dozier.

Notable players drafted 14th overall throughout NFL history include Bob Lilly, Jim Kelly and Dave Robinson.

The Vikings have 14 overall picks in the 2021 NFL Draft, including two third-round picks and three fourth-round picks.
