The Vikings landed two top-20 picks, but not a whole lot else.
During last weekend's NFL draft, the Vikings secured their quarterback of the future and one of the best defensive players in the class, trading up twice to take J.J. McCarthy and Dallas Turner with top-20 picks. That duo alone has the potential to make this. But with just one pick in rounds two through five, the Vikings weren't able to do a whole lot after the first night."If J.J.
Not all of the six quarterbacks taken in the top 12 picks are going to pan out. But just because McCarthy was the fifth one taken doesn't mean he has worse odds to be one of the successful QBs to come out of this class. In fact, he might be better set up to thrive than any of the others, due to the Vikings' coaching staff and the talent they have around him on offense. No.
As for not trading up for Maye, that allowed the Vikings to keep the 23rd pick and trade up for Turner . The former Alabama star has a chance to be very productive in Brian Flores' aggressive defensive scheme. Because of that, I think you could make the argument that the Vikings at 10 are too low in these rankings. Elsewhere in the NFC North, the Packers are 9th, the Lions are 3rd, and the Bears are 1st on Manzano's list.
