EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. -- The Minnesota Vikings added some cornerback depth in the second round of the draft, taking Clemson cornerback Mackensie Alexander with the 54th overall pick in the second round on Friday night.
My take: On one hand, the Vikings need cornerback depth, with Terence Newman turning 38 before the season and Captain Munnerlyn a free agent after this season. If Alexander winds up being the heir apparent to Munnerlyn in the slot, this pick could be a good fit. But at 5-foot-10 and 190 pounds, he doesn't have the size the Vikings prefer for their outside cornerbacks.
