The Minnesota Vikings added several noteworthy pieces to the franchise this offseason, steering the ship away from the 7-9 doldrums that were on display during the pandemic season. Oddly, all of the bodies were cut from a defensive cloth, leaving the NFL draft as the venue for offensive improvement.
These men were added via free agency:
- Mackensie Alexander (CB)
- Bashaud Breeland (CB)
- Amari Henderson (CB)
- Parry Nickerson (CB)
- Patrick Peterson (CB)
- Sheldon Richardson (DT)
- Tye Smith (CB)
- Dalvin Tomlinson (DT)
- Nick Vigil (LB)
- Stephen Weatherly (DE)
- Xavier Woods (S)
The draft was used to [finally] formulate an offensive line plan, a section of the roster that has long caused fans to roll eyeballs to the backs of sockets.
