With the No. 26 pick in the 2013 Cincy Jungle Mock Draft, Palewook selected for the Minnesota Vikings and with the 26th pick, the Vikings select...
Kevin Minter, LB, LSU
From Palewook:
With the way the draft board has shaped up, the Vikings lost out on their #1 targeted CB taken at pick #24 by the Colts. Forcing the Vikings to re-examine their draft board to target a BPA of need.The loss of Jasper Brinkley in free agency and the limited depth at MLB are one of the biggest question marks for the Vikings Defense in 2013.
The Vikings will count on Minter to make a quick transition to a NFL starting MLB in 2013. He's a bit of a gamble this early in the draft for the Vikings. Yet, the Vikings have a few huge holes to fill on their defense and he could be their starting MLB for years to come.
