Vikings general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah made another flurry of draft-day trades, this time starting with his mentor and Browns general manager Andrew Berry during Saturday's fourth round.
The Vikings moved up to take a third defensive back — Missouri corner Akayleb Evans — by sending their fifth-round pick (No. 156) and a 2023 fourth-round pick to Cleveland.
Evans (6-foot-2, 197 pounds) spent four years at Tulsa before transferring last season to Missouri, where he had six pass deflections, two forced fumbles and an interception in 11 games. He joins fellow rookie defensive backs Lewis Cine, a first-round pick, and cornerback Andrew Booth Jr.
