What receiver prospects in the 2023 NFL Draft could help the Minnesota Vikings fill their need at the position?
With the 2023 NFL Draft quickly approaching, the Minnesota Vikings have some big holes to fill all around the team. One of these glaring holes is at the wide receiver position, as long-time star receiver Adam Thielen was released this offseason. Though the team still has superstar Justin Jefferson and a more than capable receiver in K.J. Osborn, there’s no denying that the position could use some bolstering.
Without a second-round pick (at this current moment), the Vikings may look to add a receiver with their first-round pick, as they will have to wait a long time before they pick again during round three. Luckily for Minnesota, this receiver class is fairly deep, giving them a chance to have a more than viable number 2 receiver fall to them at pick 23.
Minnesota has a history of great receivers, and these receivers have spanned from different coaches and front offices alike. With Kwesi Adofo-Mensah now at the helm, there shouldn’t be much doubt that the Vikings can keep their track record of stud receivers. Here are 6 receivers in the 2023 NFL Draft who could be selected by the Minnesota Vikings.
