Heading into training camp, the Minnesota Vikings have one big piece of contract extension business. Safety Josh Metellus has been undeniably valuable over the last two seasons, as a bigger defensive role in Brian Flores' scheme has unlocked his full potential.
Metellus is also an incredibly versatile chess piece for Flores, lining up virtually everywhere imaginable across the defensive formation. That makes it difficult to quantify his market value as he heads into the final year of his contract, since he's not a traditional safety, and those contract comps don't strictly apply.
What's not in doubt is how Metellus is due for a notable raise as he ends his current two-year, $8 million deal.
