General manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah and the Minnesota Vikings continue to collect a hoard of future Day 3 draft picks, with their most recent deal involving third-year pro Mekhi Blackmon raising some eyebrows.
The Vikings are now projected to hold 11 selections in the 2026 draft alone, per Over the Cap, leaving fans waiting for the next domino to fall — like a trade with the Carolina Panthers for fan-favorite Adam Thielen.
It’s no secret that the Vikings have a need at wide receiver, with starter Jordan Addison set to serve a three-game NFL suspension to open the season.
