When the draft kicks off on April 27, the Minnesota Vikings are scheduled to be on the clock with the 23rd overall pick. They technically own the 24th overall selection, but the Dolphins were stripped of their first-round choice because of alleged tampering.
Minnesota enters the draft month with many holes on the roster, even after the first three weeks of free agency. After the departures of Adam Thielen and Dalvin Tomlinson, the Vikings have to find their replacements. Neither position has been addressed, but a different problem has plagued the roster for years, and the Vikings have the opportunity to fix it.
