With the 245th selection in the 2017 NFL Draft, the Minnesota Vikings selected North Carolina State defensive back Jack Tocho.
Tocho, the son of Kenyan immigrants, was a team captain for the Wolfpack as a senior. He struggled with injuries as a junior, but had a strong rebound season in 2016. He was a cornerback at North Carolina State, but may have the ability to transition to the safety spot as well. Overall, however, he’s got good size and solid experience as a press corner at the college level.
That does it for all of the Minnesota Vikings’ selections in the 2017 NFL Draft. We’ll have a lot more discussion about the 2017 draft class in the days to come, and we thank you for being a part of the festivities with us.
Welcome to Minnesota, Jack Tocho!
