7 takeaways from the first two weeks of Vikings OTAs

The offensive line is coming together

How the offensive line performs for the Vikings is definitely going to be one of the determining factors for how successful the team will be in 2019. If the unit can at least play at an average level, then Minnesota’s offense should be much improved from a year ago.

After their first few OTA practices, it seems like Minnesota already has an ideal group they would like to see as their starting offensive line for next season.

So far, the Vikings have been using the combination of Riley Reiff at left tackle, Pat Elflein at left guard, rookie Garrett Bradbury at center, Josh Kline at right guard, and Brian O’Neill at right tackle. Barring any significant injuries, these are the five guys that Minnesota would probably like to roll into Week 1 against the Atlanta Falcons with.

If these five blockers can stay fairly healthy throughout OTAs, training camp, and the preseason, then the Vikings have a good chance at having a much improved offensive line for 2019.
