The Vikings Don’t “Ignore” the Offensive Line

The Minnesota Vikings have funneled ample draft capital into their offensive line as of late. There was a long period after the selection of Matt Kalil that the Vikings attempted to skimp with later-round draft choices while shoring up the offensive trenches via free agency with names like Mike Remmers and Riley Reiff.

Recently, however, general manager Rick Spielman has used high-round draft capital to rebuild the offensive line. Even so, a narrative exists that the Vikings notoriously ignore the offensive line. Pertaining to the last three years, this talking point is categorically false.

A brief glimpse at Minnesota’s depth chart showcases names like Brian O’Neill, Garrett Bradbury, and Ezra Cleveland.
