The NFL Draft is a time for the Minnesota Vikings and other teams to replenish their roster with fresh young talent.
Teams use it to plug holes on their roster for the upcoming season. But they also often take guys who can be contributors down the road.
Not only is the draft a time to bring in some new faces, but it can also be a time to get rid of some current ones. The annual event is often a time when players are traded to other teams for picks in the current draft or picks in future drafts.
