One of the biggest questions for the Minnesota Vikings leading into the 2020 NFL Draft was how they were going to replace Stefon Diggs.
After trading the disgruntled wide receiver to the Buffalo Bills, it turned the Vikings wide receiver group from one of the NFL’s best to one of the leagues worst, leaving a 1,130-yard hole in the middle of their offense.
Like most trades in the NFL, timing is everything. The Vikings had a plan to replace Diggs and with one of the most hyped wide receiver draft classes in recent memory, general manager Rick Spielman bit the bullet and decided to dive headfirst for a replacement.
