Week 11 - Which College Players Are Future Vikings 2017

10 weeks have gone by in the college football season and the dust is far from settled. Georgia, Alabama, Notre Dame, Clemson, Oklahoma, and TCU are sitting at the top but there is definitely going to be some more shakeups. This weekend will have some pretty important games.

In the 2018 draft, the Vikings can go in many directions but they obviously have to decide what they are going to do at QB. I think Bradford is done as a Viking. Teddy will likely get playing time before the season is over and how he performs will be key. Keenum will be a free agent and might get offers from other teams interested in him as a starter especially if he continues to play as he has thus far. Sloter is just another guy right now and there is not much to go on. I could see them adding a QB in the draft at some point.

After that it depends on free agency. With Barr, Kendricks, Diggs, and Hunter all entering the last year of their deals, it is more than likely that they work out some extensions. It is going to be tough to pay all of them top dollar at their positions and if they do not get offfered top dollar they could decide to test the market. Waynes probably gets his 5th year option exercised and will enter his last season in 2019.

So free agency might prove to have very minimal activity besides extending our own players. I am hoping that Andrew Norwell OG Panthers hits the market but I expect the Panthers wont let that happen.

Considering who will be free agents I think the re-build of the offensive line must continue. Berger could be gone and the team may need two offensive guards. Easton, Sirles, and Isidora are all OK but I am not sold on any of them yet.

I have been watching offensive guards and tackles this year along with quarterbacks, defensive linemen, and secondary positions.

Here are some links to sites that have started to rank players. You can go to these sites to check on players.
