‘Pat Pete’ Tapped as Vikings Top Offseason Addition

It’s been a defense-only operation for the Minnesota Vikings from February through late April. General Manager Rick Spielman conducted a mini-bonanza in signing free agents, focusing solely on the defensive side of scrimmage.

No “outsider” free agents on offense have been signed to date.

Mason Cole, an offensive lineman from the Arizona Cardinals, was bartered to Minnesota for a 6th-Round draft pick, but that’s about it for offensive change. The strategy is curious as the Vikings are in desperate need of two starting offesnive linemen to accompany Brian O’Neill, Garrett Bradbury, and Ezra Cleveland in 2021.
