The Vikings are in one of the toughest salary cap positions of any team in the NFL, with an estimated $5.3 million available to spend on free agents, including their own players in Anthony Barr and Sheldon Richardson.

The good news for the Vikings is that General Manager Rick Spielman, Executive Vice President Rob Brzezinski and Vice President George Paton have been in this kind of situation before and handled it well.
