Vikings Draft 2020: Playoff prospects to watch – LSU
By Luke Parrish
Will any LSU Tigers players stay in the purple and gold and be selected by the Minnesota Vikings during the 2020 NFL Draft?
The LSU Tigers are the nation’s top-ranked team prior to this season’s College Football Playoff. Ed Orgeron’s team was a huge surprise to the world as they overcame a seemingly impossible schedule and held a perfect record. With time running out, which Tigers will improve their stock for the 2020 NFL Draft the most?
As with any championship contender, LSU has an abundance of NFL talent on the roster. The draft is four months away and these kids are about to make some serious money. Who will stand out?
Will the Minnesota Vikings add some current Tigers to the roster in 2020? Given the talent that is offered, the Vikings would be foolish to not even consider it. All 32 NFL teams should have representatives at the LSU Pro Day prior to the draft.
Despite Minnesota being in the middle of a successful season that has them in the playoffs, they should not be deterred from being bold in the upcoming draft. With holes on both sides of the ball, the Vikings need to be aggressive and get the players they want. LSU may be a program to look further into as they have talent at all spots on the field.
Minnesota has been mocked to select a few different LSU Tigers in some of the recent mock drafts. There are prospects available on all three days of the draft who could come in and help the Vikings.
The LSU offense is explosive and the defense has the talent to suffocate opponents. Who should Minnesota keep an eye on as the Tigers attempt to finish their season with a National Championship? Let’s take a look.
