The Minnesota Vikings are hard at work trying to find out more information about prospects to make draft day easier. According to Chris Biderman of the Sacramento Bee, the Vikings are hosting Sacramento Stare S/LB Marte Mapu on a top-30 visit.
Mapu is an explosive prospect that plays a style of football fit for today’s National Football League. A safety and linebacker hybrid, Mapu can do a little bit of everything. He can explode downhill in the running game and also cover in the passing game. Despite being smaller, he fits the prototype of hybrid cover linebacker.
Mapu did tear his pectoral muscle recently which is the likely reason why the Vikings are hosting him on a top-30 visit. Brian Flores loves versatility and Mapu provides that in droves.
