Potential Draft Day Deals for Trader Rick

It’s three weeks until the NFL Draft, and Vikings’ GM Rick Spielman is likely busy building up the Vikings’ draft board, going through player evaluations with coaches and scouts, and doing whatever due diligence can be accomplished without the benefit of having player visits and workouts. Normally this would be the time for the Vikings Top 30 event, where they host their top prospects and conduct more workouts and interviews. But not this year with the coronavirus precautions in place.

Spielman and his staff will have also been canvassing the league and comparing notes, among other things, to get a sense of which prospects may go where, what positions may be a priority for teams, and how supply and demand may work in determining how the draft may play out.
