MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) — The storyline that’s dominated the Minnesota Vikings’ offseason is finally over: Thanks to a coin toss, their first round pick will fall at #14.
They won’t actually be picking there; the Vikings gave their first round pick to the Philadelphia Eagles as part of the trade that brought Sam Bradford to Minnesota.
The Vikings were tied with the Indianapolis Colts for the 14th pick in the draft. The tiebreaking coin toss was performed at the NFL Combine Friday, with the Vikings coming out on top. The Eagles will pick 14th and the Colts will make their selection one pick later.
