The second biggest step on the way the 2019 NFL Draft finished up on Monday. The Minnesota Vikings watched many of these players at the Combine closely, and a few of them performed so well, they won’t have a chance to get drafted by the Purple.

The 2019 NFL Scouting Combine is officially history. We’ve already gone over players rising and falling, and now it’s time to look at some guys who performed their way out of being selected by the Minnesota Vikings.

A few of these guys’ chances of falling to pick 18 were slim anyway, but their workouts just solidified the fact they won’t be on the board when the Vikings go on the clock. Of course, the Vikings could always package some picks together and move up and snag one of these players, but with little cap space and numerous holes to fill it’s likely they’ll stay put.

So here are some guys who who fans can still hope will be Vikings someday, but it won’t be this April.
