NFL Draft 2018: 4 offensive linemen the Minnesota Vikings could possibly select
By Adam Patrick
Who are some of the offensive linemen available in this year’s NFL Draft pool that could be selected by the Minnesota Vikings?
After years of their offensive line struggling, the Minnesota Vikings finally invested a bunch of money into improving the important position group in 2017.
In addition to signing two free-agent tackles in Riley Reiff and Mike Remmers, the Vikings also spent two of their 2017 draft picks on Ohio State center Pat Elflein and Miami guard Danny Isidora. Minnesota’s extra investment into the unit last offseason led to their offensive line performing the best it ever has since Mike Zimmer became the team’s head coach in 2014.
In 2018, the Vikings’ offensive line will likely have at least one new starter due to the recent retirement of right guard Joe Berger. Minnesota did sign a new blocker in Tom Compton this offseason, but he was likely brought in more to improve the team’s depth on the line rather than to be a starter next year.
Signs seem to be pointing to the Vikings selecting an offensive lineman at some point during the 2018 NFL Draft. Who are some of the possible prospects available this year that Minnesota could add to their roster?
