The Vikings have receivers Stefon Diggs and Adam Thielen.
That’s good.
That’s pretty much it, though, besides last year’s seventh-round pick Bisi Johnson. The Vikings badly need depth at wide receiver.
In a mock draft over at The Athletic, the Vikings draft a receiver in the fourth round, Denzel Mims out of Baylor.
Here’s what was written about Mims:
Mims does have more work to do as a receiver, particularly when it comes to refining some of the other aspects of his route-running, especially on comeback and in-breaking routes. There are also some fair questions about whether or not he’ll be able to maintain his high level of contested-catch ability given his frame and overall strength.
The Vikings will almost certainly draft a receiver in the 2020 NFL Draft — we just don’t know where.
In his senior year at Bayor, Mims caught 66 passes for 1,020 yards and 12 touchdowns.
