Injuries hampered him during his college career at Maryland, but the Minnesota Vikings still took wide receiver Stefon Diggs in the fifth round (146th overall) in this year’s draft. The Vikings aren’t looking for Diggs to be a starter as a rookie, but his versatility makes him an intriguing piece for offensive coordinator Norv Turner.
With the offseason trade for Mike Wallace, the Vikings have three wide receivers that are locks for a roster spot (Wallace, Charles Johnson, Jarius Wright) and a fourth that is close to a lock in Cordarrelle Patterson.
