The two most valuable decisions the Vikings have to make in the upcoming months are what they will do with their first selection in the 2023 draft and the contract situation of quarterback Kirk Cousins. Like always, one thing influences the other.
Cousins is under contract for one more season. The Vikings could secure his play for more years if the two parties agree on an extension. However, after five years with the team, it could be time to move in a different direction, considering that Cousins will turn 35. Nevertheless, the Vikings can go in many directions in the draft’s first round.
