For the Vikings, our spot is clear; #3 overall. Most likely we end up with either Robert Griffin III (or at least his trade rights) or Matt Kalil. Nice spot to be. I will continue to update this throughout the playoffs and will be unveiling the full likely NFL compensatory picks (including the Vikings') in the coming days.
