The draft is less than one week away, and the Vikings could go in many different directions with their top selection, the 23rd overall pick. Some positions need to be filled after the departure of a player in free agency. Wide receiver and defensive tackle come to mind. Others need to be addressed after poor play in 2022, like cornerback or linebacker.
However, the Vikings could also throw some draft capital at a quarterback after not extending Kirk Cousins’ deal for the first time during his tenure with the organization. Barring any surprising extension news in the next ten months, he will be a free agent next March, and the purple team must find his successor.
