Vikings linked to former Packer as team looks to add secondary pieces

The 2025 NFL Draft has come and gone, and the Minnesota Vikings did a lot to improve their roster during the three-day event. The biggest addition comes from their first-round pick, former Ohio State offensive lineman Donovan Jackson. Jackson figures to come in and compete for a starting spot from Day 1 -- if he's not penciled in as a starter already. Minnesota desperately needed to beef up in the trenches on both sides of the ball, but particularly along the offensive line. The acquisition of Jackson accomplishes that goal, but that's not the only area they improved.
