In Part III of this Championship Roster Building series for the Vikings, I’ll take a look at the offensive line for the Vikings.
There is a school of thought that offensive line is the most important position group to be successful offensively. Without good pass protection, it’s difficult to have good production from the quarterback position group, and therefore receiver group, and without good run blocking, the running back group too. Indeed, how many top-tier quarterbacks have there been without a good offensive line in front of him? Few or none.
So, when it comes to building a championship roster, having a top-tier offensive line is a key component.
