Player No. 2

Danielle Hunter - OLB

Danielle Hunter may arguably be the most tantalizing trade asset that Minnesota currently has to offer. He is a Pro Bowl-caliber player who is 29-years-old, and he plays a very impactful position.

The Vikings have received trade calls about Hunter before, and right now could be the time for them to pull the trigger. He is another player who is on an expiring contract, making his future murky in Minnesota regardless.

Hunter could add a much-needed spark to a contending team looking to strengthen their defense, and the Vikings could receive valuable assets in return to help build their roster down the line.

Von Miller was recently in a similar situation in 2021 when the Denver Broncos dealt the future Hall of Famer to the Los Angeles Rams for a second and third-round draft pick.

Hunter may not be on the same level as Miller, but he brings a cheaper price tag money-wise and is a few years younger than Miller when he was dealt.
