Vikings need to develop depth behind their stars

If the Vikings are going to win the NFC North in 2020, they are going to have to do it with a top-heavy roster of star players, because after a number of free agency departures and trades, the club most likely will not have the kind of depth it has relied on the past couple of years.

Over the past three seasons, the Vikings have sent nine players on the current roster to the Pro Bowl in Anthony Barr, Dalvin Cook, Kirk Cousins, C.J. Ham, Danielle Hunter, Eric Kendricks, Kyle Rudolph, Harrison Smith and Adam Thielen.

In comparison, the defending division champion Packers have sent five players to the Pro Bowl since 2017: Davante Adams, David Bakhtiari, Kenny Clark, Aaron Rodgers and Za'Darius Smith.
