Vikings Territory Breakdown The NFL draft nears like some ominous apparition quietly flapping its ratty black wings through a rising mist toward a stalled Vikings ship in still and murky waters.

The Minnesota Vikings have needed an infusion of young talent at the running back position since the departure of Dalvin Cook. There was a belief that Alexander Mattison could be the answer, but that flopped. Ty Chandler was a long shot, and he never panned out either. Rather than run things back with Aaron Jones […]

The Minnesota Vikings will be on the clock later this month when the NFL Draft kicks off from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. It remains a mystery what they may target with the 18th overall pick, or whether they will stick there at all.

About two months ago, no one knew how the Minnesota Vikings would proceed at quarterback during the offseason, and one of the main theories involved a theoretical trade with the San Francisco 49ers for Mac Jones.
