Vikings take tackle T.J. Clemmings in fourth round of NFL draft

The Vikings on Saturday selected Pittsburgh tackle T.J. Clemmings with the No. 110 pick in the fourth round of the NFL draft.

The 6-foot-6, 315-pound Clemmings had projected by some to go in the first round but he dropped because of some medical issues. It's not a high-risk pick by the Vikings, who have six picks on the third day of the draft.

It was appropriate Vikings Hall of Fame offensive lineman Randall McDaniel played a role in the pick on NFL Network. At the site of the new stadium that will open next year, McDaniel introduced construction foreman Lesley Singer, who announced the pick.
