Vikings 2023 7-round mock draft: Matt Anderson’s 5.0

The Minnesota Vikings have a history of trading to maximize value. In the latest mock draft from @MattAnderson_8, he does just that

The NFL Scouting Combine is underway, and many coaches and general managers are down in Indianapolis taking part in the evaluation of the prospects that are slated to be taken in the NFL Draft. We heard Minnesota Vikings general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah and head coach Kevin O’Connell speak earlier this week about their plans for this offseason. While a lot will change between now and then, it’s always fun to try and guess what teams might do.

In this mock draft, I looked to move players for draft capital and move around in the draft to go get impact players. I used Pro Football Focus’ mock draft simulator and Rich Hill’s trade chart.

Prior to the draft I traded running back Dalvin Cook and a 2024 6th-round pick to the Miami Dolphins for the 84th overall pick.

Now, let’s take a look at the results!
