The Minnesota Vikings will be looking to improve their offensive line during the 2019 NFL Draft. Not only will they be looking at guards, but tackle should also be high on their list.

The Minnesota Vikings will be addressing their offensive line more than once during the this year’s NFL Draft. The Vikings clearly need help at guard, even after their recent signings, but they also need to add offensive tackles.

Minnesota is set with Riley Reiff on the left side and promising young tackle Brian O’Neill holding down the job on the right side of the line. The Vikings’ biggest issue is depth. Minnesota is razor thin when it comes to backups and they currently just have Rashod Hill as they only guy below the starters who has any actual game experience.

The Vikings could address this need as early as their first-round draft pick this year. If Minnesota goes this route, they would likely look to get a guy who could start out as a guard before swinging over to tackle when Reiff is eventually gone.

Adding to their offensive line is a need the Vikings should address a couple of times in the 2019 draft and really any round is fair game when it comes to bringing in help for a big protector for Kirk Cousins.

Of the offensive tackle prospects available in this year’s draft pool, which five have a good chance to end up Minnesota’s roster for next season?
