MINNEAPOLIS -- As much ability is still latent in Jerick McKinnon, the dynamic third-year running back who was selected with the last piece of the Percy Harvin trade, the Minnesota Vikings' 2013 deal with the Seattle Seahawks will likely always be judged on the production of the first player they took with the picks they got for Harvin.
The Vikings selected Xavier Rhodes with the 25th overall pick in the 2013 draft, adding the physical corner they'd sorely lacked for years.
