The Minnesota Vikings have high expectations on rookie cornerback Cameron Dantzler, and the third-round NFL Draft pick will be one to watch in 2020.

The Minnesota Vikings defensive backfield will look considerably different in 2020 than it did a year ago.

Gone are cornerbacks Trae Waynes, Xavier Rhodes and Mackensie Alexander. And in return, the Vikings used three of their 15 NFL Draft picks on cornerbacks to replace the losses: TCU’s Jeff Gladney in Round 1, Temple’s Harrison Hand in Round 5 and Mississippi State’s Cameron Dantzler in Round 3.
