4 trades the Vikings can make for immediate help in the 2021 season

Who are some of the players the Minnesota Vikings can trade for to help them with some of the weakest parts of their current roster?
With only two wins in their first three games, it’s clear the Minnesota Vikings still have plenty of room for improvement this season.
The Vikings went out and added a bunch of veteran free agents earlier this year, especially on the defensive side of the ball, but their performances haven’t exactly resulted in success for the team this season.
In fact, Minnesota could probably still use additional help for some of the position groups that they attempted to improve this past offseason in free agency and in the NFL Draft.
There are still a few weeks left until the trade deadline on November 2, so the Vikings have time to come up with some potential trade offers. But the deadline is quickly approaching.
Minnesota currently has a little over $4 million in cap space according to OverTheCap.com. So one would assume the Vikings can’t make a trade for a big-name player, but teams (especially Minnesota) can typically figure out a way to manipulate the salary cap in order to get a deal done.
So if the Vikings are looking for a few players from around the NFL that could probably make an impact for them fairly quickly, who are some of the guys they could be interested in trading for?
