Cornerback continues to be a position that mock drafts target for the Minnesota Vikings. Yes, the defense isn’t where they would like it to be, but they were pretty good at cornerback despite all of that. Duke Shelley and Patrick Peterson both finished in the top four in PFF coverage grades and they will have Andrew Booth Jr. and Akayleb Evans returning next season from injured reserve.
Nevertheless, it’s always a good idea to have a plethora of cornerbacks on the roster. That’s how Mike Zimmer liked to operate when he was here and analysts across the mock drafts think that general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah might be doing the same.
