The Vikings are among several teams who have been pondering a move up the draft board, but a move on Friday signals that they may at least be getting more serious about it.<\/p>\n

Minnesota has the #11 overall pick, but they got aggressive and Minnesota general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah reached an agreement with Houston to also acquire their #23 overall selection.\u00a0 That now gives the Vikings two pieces of currency in Round 1 to move up the board should they elect to target a quarterback.<\/p>\n

As things currently sit, the departure of Kirk Cousins to Atlanta certainly altered the Vikings\u2019 current trajectory.\u00a0 His loss saw them sign Sam Darnold as a placeholder, but Minnesota clearly went from a potential NFC Contender to now trying to figure out how they\u2019re going to handle the position.<\/p>\n

The move also created some chaos internally, with superstar wideout Justin Jefferson now reportedly unhappy.\u00a0 If that situation goes south, it\u2019s probably safe to say most Vikings fans would probably lose their minds if they lost the most explosive player they\u2019ve had since Randy Moss.\u00a0 It\u2019s obvious that the club is now feeling some pressure, and the only question is going to be what they ultimately decide to do about it.<\/p>\n

Adofo-Mensah said on Thursday that they\u2019ll look at whatever opportunities they have and try and use whatever flexibility they have to give them the best chance for that.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf the opportunity comes where that player\u2019s available, we\u2019ll take it, \u201d\u00a0he said via ESPN<\/strong><\/a>. \u201cIf it\u2019s not available in that sense, we\u2019ll continue to build around and then find potential odds at a long-term solution, in addition to what we\u2019ve already brought in with Sam and anybody else we require. So really, the answer isn\u2019t some strict thing. And part of that is the flexibility we\u2019ve wanted to put into our plan for these past couple years.\u201d<\/p>\n

It\u2019s also possible that the Vikings could be coveting Jayden Daniels, who has reportedly been New England\u2019s preference.\u00a0 This was mentioned here last week, but Alec Lewis of the Athletic, who covers the Vikings,\u00a0reported previously that he was told by an LSU staffer<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0that Minnesota was \u201cone of the earliest teams to dive into, evaluate, and express an interest in\u201d Daniels.<\/p>\n

One other wrinkle is that there have been rumors that the Patriots aren\u2019t necessarily high on Drake Maye and feel strongly enough on Daniels where they may even move back.\u00a0 One report by Tony Pauline went so far to say that if Daniels comes off the board before the Patriots pick, \u201cthe\u00a0New England Patriots<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0would trade back if Jayden Daniels did not drop to their slot.\u201d<\/p>\n

That means, for the Vikings to land him, that would require the Bears to stay the course with taking Caleb Williams.\u00a0 It would also mean that Minnesota would then have to potentially jump ahead of the Patriots at #2 overall, and it\u2019s possible Friday\u2019s move is one step towards at least giving them that option.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s also possible that the Vikings could be pondering a deal with New England.\u00a0 But for the Patriots to trade back, it would certainly be a big gamble, depending on who is on their radar.<\/p>\n

Michigan\u2019s J.J. McCarthy is a name that has come up, although his stock has skyrocketed in recent days, and the club was recently on hand for Bo Nix\u2019s workout at Oregon, although he\u2019s another player who is moving up the board.<\/p>\n

The only other way you could see it happening would be if Jefferson\u2019s name was floated as an additional chip in the deal.\u00a0 However, that creates a new problem, and the Vikings may not be even willing to consider it, given the backlash they\u2019d face.<\/p>\n

Needless to say, it\u2019s going to be interesting.\u00a0 The only issue is the Patriots are learning what it\u2019s like to be a cellar-dwelling team and an unattractive landing spot, which has absolutely impacted the start of free agency.<\/p>\n

If they continue to struggle to bring in upper-echelon talent, it\u2019s only going to make next month\u2019s draft that much more critical.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
