• Taking a look back at the Dolphins trade of Minkah Fitzpatrick

Photo by Mark Brown/Getty Images We take a look back at the Miami Dolphins trade of safety Minkah Fitzpatrick to the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Miami Dolphins used the 11th overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft to acquire a Swiss Army knife of a defensive player, selecting Alabama safety Minkah Fitzpatrick. Under then head coach Adam Gase, Fitzpatrick was initially listed as the backup behind ...2025

• 5 cornerbacks not named Jalen Ramsey the Cowboys should pursue

Photo by Brandon Sloter/Getty Images The Cowboys should definitely be interested in adding a cornerback. The Dallas Cowboys have been linked to Jalen Ramsey in recent days, whether or not the rumor actually has any legs. For what it’s worth, Dallas could use a viable option to bolster their cornerback position, but Ramsey probably isn’t the answer. With that in mind, here are five players ...2025

• Vikings Links: OTAs Underway The Next Two Days

Photo by Ian Maule/Getty Images The long wait is over! What is the weakest position group on the Vikings? It has to be Quarterback right now right? I mean, JJ simply has not played yet. Next I think is either Safety or Cornerback. What trades or signings can the team still make? I think after June 1st is when it is most realistic due to cap constraints. Any team needing cap help has to wai...2025

• Is Josh Metellus still an underappreciated player for the Vikings?

Photo by Brooke Sutton/Getty Images Josh Metellus has led the Vikings in tackles each of the past two seasons, but he may still be an underappreciated player in Minnesota. Vikings do-it-all defender Josh Metellus is likely a household name around these parts, but outside of the state of Minnesota, there still seems to be some hesitancy to hold him in a higher regard amongst the league’s be...2025

• Maulers and Stalwarts

The offensive line was greatly improved in the offseason, but I think another unit has a possibility of being the best in the league. If you ask Vikings fans about which line improved the most in the 2025 offseason, the majority (of Daily Norseman readers at least) will say it was the offensive side of the ball. That view is completely warranted in my opinion. The fact that Will Fries is even on t...2025

The 2025 NFL Draft is in the books and the Minnesota Vikings emerged with a total of five draft picks and a veteran backup quarterback as well.
