The Vikings have obtained an additional first-round pick (No. 23) to possibly support a move up from No. 11 in the upcoming draft. However, it appears that they may not actually need it. It is currently anticipated that the Vikings will stay put in their original position, with Michigan quarterback J.J. McCarthy expected to still be available when they make their selection.
This potential outcome may surprise some observers, as McCarthy has been loosely linked to the Broncos, who could potentially move up to No. 10 to select him before the Vikings have a chance. There have also been rumors connecting McCarthy to the Giants, but these are believed to be a diversion tactic.
The truth will be revealed soon enough as the draft approaches. It is time for all the speculation and rumors to fade away, and for the actual picks to become clear. Only time will tell where McCarthy will ultimately end up.
