6 bold Vikings predictions for free agency and the 2022 NFL Draft

The Minnesota Vikings enter one of the most important offseasons in franchise history, but what will happen?

The Minnesota Vikings are entering one of the most important offseasons in franchise history. Coming off back-to-back seasons where they missed the playoffs, the Vikings have several decisions to make that could not only shape the team for the 2022 season but for years to come.

With the Vikings entering this offseason more than $15 million over the salary cap, they need to find a way to keep their impact players while also finding a way to improve the team.

This makes Kwesi Adofo-Mensah’s first offseason in Minnesota a challenge. The Wilfs have told everyone they expect Minnesota to be “super competitive” next season, which gives Adofo-Mensah a small margin for error. But with several veterans coming in with large contracts, it’s clear that changes are imminent.

So who will move onto another team? Who will get paid? And what moves could the Vikings make to turn a middling team into a legitimate contender in the NFC?

In this article, we’ll go over six bold predictions for this offseason and how it could affect Minnesota for years to come.
