Minnesota traded Stefon Diggs this offseason, but that doesn’t mean the team will necessarily take a step back.
The Vikings drafted Justin Jefferson in the first round, who can go about replacing some of Diggs’ production. He doesn’t have to replace all of it, though.
The team could see improvement from players like Bisi Johnson and Irv Smith Jr., which could also be a big help for preventing any regression in the passing game.
Besides Diggs, the Vikings terminated Josh Kline’s contract, so there will be a new player at right guard so long as the team doesn’t re-sign Kline.
Other than that, the offensive group is relatively the same. Let’s see where ESPN ranked the Vikings among other NFL teams when it came to offensive position groups:
