Draft Wire has released its latest mock draft, and it speculated that the Vikings will add a tackle in the first round, and a cornerback in the second.
Houston offensive tackle Josh Jones was projected to go to the Vikings at pick No. 25. With the following pick, Minnesota selected Jaylon Johnson, a cornerback out of Utah. Both those positions might lack depth due to free agency and the Vikings shoring up the salary cap situation, so both those moves seem possible.
The Vikings drafted TCU defensive linemen Ross Blacklock with their next pick in the mock draft at pick No. 89. With the 122nd pick in the draft, Draft Wire predicted that the Vikings went with Boise State wide receiver John Hightower. Read more about Hightower here.
LSU’s Joe Burrow was the first overall pick, followed by Ohio State’s Chase Young in the mock draft. The Lions selected Ohio State’s Jeff Okudah with the third pick.
