The Minnesota Vikings began the second day of the 2023 NFL Draft by trading down from the 87th overall pick with the San Francisco 49ers. In exchange for that selection, they received Nos. 102, 164, and 222. With that 102nd overall pick, the Vikings have added USC CB Mekhi Blackmon.
This is now two USC Trojans in two picks for the Vikings during this draft, seeing as they also added WR Jordan Addison in the first round.
