The Vikings have fabulously addressed almost all offseason roster needs in the last few days, so much so that the draft in five weeks could be used to select the best player available, regardless of position.
The draft is 35 days away, and Minnesota has four picks scheduled for the event, though general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah could trade back and accrue more picks.
