After dropping their second game in a row, some Viking fans are hoping to see Minnesota make some moves before the trade deadline — especially after star left tackle Christian Darrisaw is now out for the season.
But according to Ben Goessling with the Star Tribune, he expects the Vikings to be patient and be in a wait-and-see approach until after the Colts’ game on Sunday Night Football.
“The NFL’s decision to move its trade deadline back by one week means the Vikings will play once more, at home next Sunday night against the Colts, before deciding how aggressive they want to be in pursuit of upgrades for their 2024 roster.”
Minnesota could use some help in different areas. Of course, the offensive line remains a concern. Will Dalton Risner get the first shot at either left tackle or left guard, while moving Blake Brandel over? But what about the right guard position that has been a struggle all season? Then on defense, it’s clear the Vikings need some interior help on the line, and could use some help in the secondary.
Fans will have to wait and see what happens.
