The Minnesota Vikings have added a little bit to their stock of picks for the 2026 NFL Draft in recent days, and given that this is likely to change again before Tuesday’s 3:00 PM Central roster cut deadline, we should take a quick look at what Kwesi Adofo-Mensah is working with as he tries to make some moves to solidify the 53-man roster.
Here is what the Vikings currently have in terms of draft picks as things stand right now. This includes projected Compensatory picks, courtesy of Over the Cap.
The Minnesota Vikings have been busy on this Sunday morning, but it appears as though their quarterback room is locked and loaded ahead of the final roster cutdown on Tuesday afternoon.
After bringing him in for a workout on Saturday, the Vikings officially agreed to terms with quarterback Carson Wentz on Sunday. The team also released journeyman Brett Rypien, who had been with the team last season and through this preseason.
We went over Wentz’s resume in our initial report about his workout, so we won’t rehash it here. Sufficient to say, he appears to be another potential project for...
While it isn’t quite as dramatic as the trade involving these two teams and a quarterback nearly a decade ago, the Minnesota Vikings and the Philadelphia Eagles have agreed to a trade involving a quarterback.
According to numerous sources, the Vikings have agreed to send Sam Howell and a 2026 sixth-round draft choice to the Eagles in exchange for a fifth-round pick in 2026 and a seventh-round pick in 2027.
The Vikings acquired Howell from the Seattle Seahawks on draft weekend, ostensibly to be the backup to J.J. McCarthy. The deal saw the Vikings and Seahawks exchange fifth-round picks, with...
Now that the Minnesota Vikings have completed their preseason and roster cuts could be announced anytime between now and Tuesday, which is the cutdown deadline. I did a 53-man roster projection a week ago and while a few things have changed since then (Harrison Phillips trade means Elijah Williams most likely makes the roster, Ryan Wright looks to have won the holder job and therefore punter job too), the initial roster seems pretty well set. And with that the strengths and weaknesses of the Vikings roster are becoming more apparent. Here are some thoughts on the Vikings roster and how...
The Minnesota Vikings are starting the process of reducing their roster to 53 players, and with things still unsettled on their quarterback depth chart, they’ve brought in an interesting name to potentially add to it.
According to Lindsay Thiry of ESPN, the Vikings brought quarterback Carson Wentz in for a workout on Saturday.
Wentz’s story is pretty well-documented. He was the #2 overall pick in the 2016 NFL Draft out of North Dakota State by the Philadelphia Eagles, and after an up-and-down rookie season, was playing lights out football in his second season until he tore his ACL late in...
I am always disappointed after a loss even if it is the preseason. I wasn’t impressed that much by the showing the players put out there yesterday. The Titans were running the ball a little to well for my liking and those youts on the defensive line need to be better especially after they traded Phillips. Looking towards the cuts on Tuesday and trying to come up with the final 53, it will be affected slightly by injuries. Elijah Williams may start the year on IR with a designation to return presuming he makes the roster.
Will there be any...
The 2025 preseason is in the books for the Minnesota Vikings, and they got a good look at a lot of the players fighting for roster spots in their preseason finale against the Tennessee Titans.
Quarterback Max Brosmer appeared to stake his claim to a roster spot with his performance, but the Vikings will have a lot of questions to answer over the next few days as they evaluate the preseason, including tonight’s 23-13 loss to Tennessee.
The Vikings drew first blood in this one, with Max Brosmer starting at quarterback and moving the ball fairly well, considering that the...
We’ve reached halftime at Nissan Stadium, and the Minnesota Vikings trail the Tennessee Titans by a score of 14-3.
The Titans won the coin toss and chose to defer to the second half, so the Vikings got the football to start things off. The Vikings’ offense was led out onto the field by rookie Max Brosmer, so read into that what you will. The Vikings managed to convert a first down and get out to near midfield, but a holding penalty helped to stall the drive and the Vikings punted it away.
The Titans had a significant number of defensive...

College football season is here! There are only a few games to watch but if you like college football there will be at least one good matchup. Kansas State vs Iowa State.
I like to do these so that I can watch players that could be future Vikings.
I always appreciate feedback about players I may not have included or that I should try to watch too.
Here is a list of players put out by the Senior Bowl. I think it should be a good guide about who to watch.

Below are the games this week with prospects...
The Minnesota Vikings are thin at the WR position. Jordan Addison will miss the first three games on suspension. Jalen Nailor is battling a hand injury. Jefferson missed time last season with a hamstring issue and has missed a large portion of camp this year. The team will likely be bringing help in from the outside.
Rumors have started swirling that the outside help might be an old friend. The Vikings have reportedly expressed interest in brining back the Minnesota native. Thielen turned 35 today, for a WR, he’s old. However, if the Vikings are looking for a 3 game...
It’s time for another look at some of the odds surrounding the Minnesota Vikings as we get closer to our friends at FanDuel celebrating Futures Day on Tuesday, and this one has to do with everyone’s favorite wide receiver.
The folks at FanDuel have set the over/under for receiving yards for Justin Jefferson. . .still the best wide receiver in the National Football League. . .at 1250.5 for this season.
In his five seasons in the National Football League, Jefferson has only failed to eclipse that number one time. That came in 2023, when he missed nearly half the season...
