Roster reshape: 15-player draft class is Vikings' largest since 1985

The Vikings entered the 2020 draft with several aims. Among them: to restock a secondary that went through a notable shift in free agency, find a left tackle of the future, land a wide receiver who could help replace Stefon Diggs, and repopulate a 90-man roster that had 30 open spots before the draft.

Their best attempt to complete such a long shopping list came in the form of a warehouse-sized draft class that broke an NFL record.

The Vikings entered the 2020 draft with 12 picks; they made four in the first two days while acquiring five more in a series of trades.
