In recent news, there has been a lot of buzz around who the Vikings should pick up as a WR3. Daniel Jeremiah recently had Devonta Smith falling to the Vikings in his latest mock draft and there are reports that Keelan Cole could be interested in joining the team given his relationship with wide receivers coach Keenan McCardell. There is also the crowd that believes a combination of Adam Thielen/Justin Jefferson/Irv Smith/Chad Beebe would be enough to compete if Beebe doesn’t leave in free agency.
Why WR3 Needs to Be Addressed
While the Vikings’ receiving core is deadly with the combo of Thielen and Jefferson, there is certainly room for improvement.
