The brief lull between last weekend’s NFL Draft and the arrival of selections for rookie minicamp (scheduled for Thursday) gives us a chance to take a look at some specific numbers of note for the incoming Vikings:
4.31 — time in seconds that first-round pick Trae Waynes needed to run the 40-yard dash at the 2015 NFL Combine, which was second-fastest behind J.J. Nelson’s 4.28; Bears receiver Kevin White, who was selected seventh overall, ran a 4.35, which was tied for the fourth-fastest time
5 and 5 — number of selections on offense and defense made by the Vikings in their 55th NFL Draft; it was the third time in four years that Minnesota has made that many picks; General Manager Rick Spielman entered the draft with seven selections but traded down in the third round twice, and once in the fifth round to acquire more selections
7 — career games with at least 100 receiving yards by fifth-round pick Stefon Diggs, giving him the second-highest total of century marks in Maryland history
