The Minnesota Vikings will have their work cut out for them this offseason trying to fill the holes on their roster as they prepare for the 2023 season. There are debates among fans and people who cover the team about which position has the biggest need, leading to a variety of selections in mock drafts for the Vikings.

On Thursday, Pro Football Network’s Joe Broback released a mock draft that had the Vikings drafting USC wide receiver Jordan Addison

“Jordan Addison likely won’t fall this far, but teams have other needs that aren’t wide receiver, so it’s not unlikely, either. Minnesota could use this pick on a corner, but there’s plenty of depth where they could wait and not pass on this kind of talent.

Justin Jefferson needs help, plain and simple. K.J. Osborn played well late in the year, but might not be the guy. Adam Thielen turns 33 in August, so the Vikings need a younger player to help. If Addison, an elite separator and route runner, is available with this pick, Minnesota shouldn’t hesitate to draft him.

If the Vikings were to select Addison with their first-round pick, it would give the Vikings’ wide receiver room two legit weapons for the next half-decade.
