The Minnesota Vikings have a handful of needs to fill this offseason. If they play their cards right, some of those needs could be filled come draft day.

As of now it looks like the Minnesota Vikings will have a total of eight selections come draft weekend this year.

So while the Vikings lost two picks with the Trevor Siemian and Brett Jones trades in 2018, they are on track to gain three compensatory selections this year. Minnesota will have plenty of ammo to get some players who can contribute as a rookie.

Vikings Current 2019 Draft Picks:

  • First Round (18th overall)
  • Second Round (50th overall)
  • Third Round (82nd overall)
  • Fourth Round (114th overall)
  • Sixth Round (178th overall)
  • Sixth Round (projected compensatory pick)
  • Seventh Round (projected compensatory pick)
  • Seventh Round (projected compensatory pick)

Looking at the top needs of the Vikings this offseason, there are some that stick out far and above the rest.

Minnesota’s most glaring need is along the offensive line. But other needs like defensive line, linebacker, tight end, and even wide receiver, will all be positions that the Vikings’ front office could take a long hard look at.

So while there is still plenty of time left in the draft season with the NFL Scouting Combine and personal workouts still set to take place, here is a quick breakdown of how the first four rounds of the Minnesota’s 2019 draft could shake out.
