PurplePTSD works in partnership with Vikings Territory, similarly doing their utmost to offer top-notch coverage of the Minnesota Vikings. As a result, we’re promoting five of their top articles of the past month in “The P/PTSD Perspective.” Take a peek at some of their best stuff.

The P/PTSD Perspective: March 28th, 2026

1) By Golly, The Vikings’ Front Office May Have Stuck the Landing: The Vikings had a very small chance at landing a compensatory pick. The wild part is that one may be coming to Minnesota despite the long odds. We’ll see if the 6th gets across the finish line.

2) Vikings Called Landing Spot for Big Rival Defender: Minnesota’s defensive line has plenty of young talent. What’s not as plentiful is established, high-floor veteran talent. Maybe the add ends up being Christian Wilkins. Or, perhaps, the rival defender with hulking size.

3) Ex-Vikings is Headed to Arizona: Lately, the focus has been on talent moving in the opposite direction. That’s what will happen when a QB as promising as Kyler Murray gets cut and then signed. Turns out the NFL’s talent exchange is a two-way street.

4) Vikings Evidently Have a Trade Asset: Several, in fact. Rumors have been out there for a little while, but nothing has happened so far. Rob Brzezinski has been very patient. The upcoming draft is very likely to involve at least some shuffling.

5) Vikings Signal Interest in Young DT, TE, and LB: ‘Tis the season for meeting with draft prospects. In less than a month, the 2026 NFL Draft will have come and gone. Pretty wild, right? Minnesota needs to crush the event, pulling off a talent heist that mirrors the 2015 effort.
