Why are the Vikings signing so many post-draft Cornerbacks?

In just the last week alone, the Minnesota Vikings have signed three cornerbacks to their roster. It’s an unusual play for an NFL team to sign so many free agents after the first waves of availability and after the draft. These three (Henderson, Breeland & Smith) join three more in Patrick Peterson, Mackensie Alexander and Parry Nickerson who have all joined the Vikings since free agency opened up.

That makes it a total of SIX new CBs out of TEN total CBs on roster right now as the team moves through OTAs and prepares for MiniCamp.
