1st Vikings Rookie Agrees to Deal

The Vikings came out of the draft with six new players. Jordan Addison, the top player of the rookie class, will have a big impact on the offense as the new running mate of Justin Jefferson, which will result in plenty of single coverage for the rookie.

General manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah added three players to the struggling defense. Defensive coordinator Brian Flores gets a couple of defensive backs as reinforcements. Jay Ward and Mekhi Blackmon will compete for starting roles in the overhauled Vikings defense.
