Which players should the Minnesota Vikings have attempted to acquire before this season’s trade deadline?

After weeks of speculation, the Minnesota Vikings ended up not making any significant roster moves when this season’s trade deadline passed on Tuesday.

With a 2-5 record after their first seven games, most assumed the Vikings were going to be sellers if they were going to make any deals before the deadline. But with the possibility of there being two additional playoff spots up for grabs in each conference this year, Minnesota could have also attempted to make a trade or two to help improve their chances of sneaking into the postseason.
