The Minnesota Vikings - and star defensive coordinator Brian Flores - have helped develop a former fourth-round pick into one of the top young safeties in the NFL.

The Vikings enter the first three rounds with only two picks, the 24th and 97th overall selections. They sent their second-rounder to the Jacksonville Jaguars in a draft-day trade to take Dallas Turner last year.

NFL offseason is here. Trade rumors are swirling around big names like Matthew Stafford, who reportedly has permission from the Los Angeles Rams to discuss a contract with other teams. Meanwhile, all 32 clubs are able to use the franchise tag until March 4.

We instructed Elon Musk's Grok 3 artificial intelligence to act as an NFL scout with a 180 IQ who is tasked with identifying 10 players at the scouting combine who fit the Minnesota Vikings' biggest needs ahead of the 2025 season.

A top free-agent guard option is off the market as a seven-time All-Pro announced his retirement, narrowing the Vikings’ potential targets.

On Feb. 20, SportsBettingAG projected Minnesota as the most likely landing spot for Stafford should the 37-year-old swap teams ahead of the 2025 campaign. The Vikings had odds of plus-300, following the the New York Giants at plus-400 and the Las Vegas Raiders at plus-500.

The Las Vegas Raiders have had a glaring issue on their roster for years, and their new regime will be looking to fix it this offseason.
