Minnesota Vikings linebacker Anthony Barr has been recently mentioned as a possible salary cap casualty this year.
On the clock to make their first draft selection since Mike Zimmer was hired to be the team’s head coach, the Minnesota Vikings decided to use their top pick in the 2014 NFL Draft on former UCLA linebacker Anthony Barr.
Barr had a high draft value back in 2014, thanks mostly to his pass-rushing abilities. While he hasn’t developed into a sack machine since entering the NFL, the Vikings defender has evolved into one of the most complete linebackers in the league.
