The Minnesota Vikings did nothing but improve this offseason, after losing Mike Wallace to the Ravens, there was not much else they lost as they resigned seven would be free agents. The Minnesota Vikings had a rough ending to the 2015 season, but these free agent additions and rookies, will help them get back to the playoffs next season.
Most important position:
Offense:
You can never have too good of an offensive line and the addition of Alex Boone will really help keep Bridgewater protected and help Adrian Peterson be that much more effective in the running game. Boone brings great durability to the line up as he has started 59/60 games he's played in over the last 4 seasons. Boone helped the 49ers make it to Super Bowl XLVII and even though they lost, they were the first Super Bowl team to ever have a 300 yard passer, 100 yard rusher and two 100 yard receivers.
Defense:
Outside Linebacker, Emmanuel Lamur, did not receive the playing time 2016, that he received in 2015. Given extra time in the rotation Lamur has proved he can produce at a high level, with two interceptions and 92 tackles in just 13 starts in 2014. Among teammates like Antony Barr, Chad Greenway and Eric Kendreicks, Lamur makes a great addition to depth of this front seven.
Most important rookie:
Offense:
With the loss of Wallace, Minnesota didn't wait long to find a replacement in the name of Laquon Treadwell of Ole Miss. Treadwell is a very competitive player, not only does he make contested catches, but he can get extra yards after the catch. With Minnesota being a run first team Treadwell fits the mold, with above average run blocking. Treadwell will be a big help in getting to the redzone, but against redzone coverage he has faltered a bit.
Defense:
Mackensie Alexander the second round pick out of Clemson will try to help this secondary maybe as more of a role player. Alexander has the speed to line up with the faster receivers in the NFL, but lacks the instincts to turn his head around and make a play on the ball. Alexander will likely match up with faster receivers on opposing teams but need safety help, when it comes to making a big play. Read more..
