The #Vikings are nearing a GM decision, but it won't be Lions Assistant GM Ray Agnew, who said that he wasn't what Minnesota was looking for...

The #Vikings enter this season without arguably their top two defenders: Jonathan Greenard and Harrison Smith.
So, will Brian Flores have to work his magic even more, or is this season going to be different somehow?

J.J. McCarthy will improve this year. He’s going to show some nice plays in preseason that make you think, "Is he actually the guy now?" But where McCarthy falls short, Murray excels, and where he has strengths, Murray’s are stronger, writes @ripleynfl: https://t.co/yQdSCfxoz5
The #Vikings will need to overcome familiar foes like the Bears, Packers, and Kevin O’Connell on third-and-one. Still, Minnesota's schedule looks manageable. @ripleynfl breaks it down here: https://t.co/xk8PLr0T7m
No rookie class will come in perfectly ready to dominate, and the #Vikings may have more hurdles to clear than some other teams. As rookie minicamp approaches, the development plans will become clearer. @ripleynfl lays them out here: https://t.co/8034ec9HlY
The true test of the #Vikings’ best-player-available approach is here, and it’s sure to upset people. If all of the top safeties and cornerbacks are off the board by the time they pick, would they possibly entertain taking an O-lineman? asks @ripleynfl: https://t.co/j2LOu8Lzox
Kenyon Sadiq is one blue-chip player who may still be available at 18, and the #Vikings may be unable to resist the temptation. @ripleynfl explains why: https://t.co/q9QdCOAQ1m
Deandre Hopkins is the best option for the #Vikings at this point in the game. He’s a one-year rental, likely, but it would be hard to find a player who Kevin O’Connell can trust more, writes @ripleynfl: https://t.co/a1hdxZ1KrV
Nebraska RB Emmett Johnson has been linked to the #Vikings in recent weeks as a Twin Cities native who plays at a position of need. But this is more than just a feel-good homecoming story, explains @ripleynfl: https://t.co/iIZxJzVmqf
The #Vikings pick at No. 18 in this year’s draft, and a trade down almost feels inevitable at this point. There’s a lot of production to replace in 2026, but their roster shortcomings may actually become a benefit in this scenario, explains @ripleynfl: https://t.co/Sf2WlUBkVD
