As an offseason morsel of excitement, Pro Football Focus handed the Minnesota Vikings an impressive one on Thursday.
The football-grading outfit ranked all NFL teams by roster talent, locking in teams like the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Kansas City Chiefs, and Cleveland Browns in one-two-three order – a somewhat predictable arrangement for the league’s top teams.
And, the Vikings were not far off that elite club. Per PFF, Minnesota holds the NFL’s ninth-best roster, emphasizing the upcoming maturation of Justin Jefferson amid a sophomore campaign and the addition of All-Pro cornerback Patrick Peterson via free agency.
