There are some players on the Minnesota Vikings roster who would make sense to be dealt to another team before the 2021 NFL trade deadline.

General Manager Rick Spielman hasn’t been afraid to wheel and deal in order to improve the Minnesota Vikings roster. He has shipped out star players and brought in others in the past, and the trades have worked out in favor of the purple and gold (for the most part).

The Vikings aren’t a team known for making deals just before the trade deadline on Tuesday, November 2 at 4 p.m. EST. However, that doesn’t mean this year will pass without Spielman executing a transaction to add players or draft picks.

The odds are that Minnesota won’t make a deal to ship one of their players to another team. Since they have a 3-3 record, they will likely be focusing on winning games this season instead of selling off short-term assets.

Still, there are some players who might make sense to put on the trade block before the deadline that might draw some interest from other teams. Let’s take a look at three individuals who could make sense to be dealt to another franchise.
