The 2017 NFL Draft will be the 11th year in which the current Minnesota Vikings general manager has been involved in the selection process.
Following the 2006 NFL Draft, the Minnesota Vikings hired a guy by the name of Rick Spielman to be the team’s vice president of player personnel. Since then, Spielman has played a major part in who the Vikings decide to select with their draft picks each and every year.
Now Minnesota’s general manager, Spielman has been a part of the front office that has drafted a number of great players including Adrian Peterson, Everson Griffen, Xavier Rhodes, Harrison Smith, Anthony Barr, Eric Kendricks, and Stefon Diggs. Of course, not all of the Vikings’ draft selections have been amazing during Spielman’s tenure with the team.
In terms of production and where they were drafted, who are some of the absolute worst players Minnesota has decided to pick in the draft since Spielman was hired almost 11 years ago?
