Now that the 2016 NFL Draft is in the books, the focus has shifted to the actual season.
NFL.com’s Elliot Harrison released his early NFC playoff predictions and has the Vikings going back for a second straight season.
Harrison went through his six NFC postseason teams in 60 seconds and had Minnesota at No. 5. The Vikings went 11-5 and won the NFC North last season.
Harrison touched on a pair of recent draft picks in Laquon Treadwell and Moritz Boehringer while also complimenting Vikings Head Coach Mike Zimmer’s stout defense.
“They drafted a ‘slow’ wide receiver who happens to be kind of awesome,” Harrison said in the video clip.
