8. Minnesota Vikings
Tavon Wilson
Safety
Yes, we know. The Minnesota Vikings need a quarterback, but Illinois doesn’t have a quarterback on the board.
Because of this, the Viks are going to go for a safety in Tavon Wilson. Wilson’s been able to provide some quality results in New England, and would be a very nice pickup for Minnesota.
As for that QB? Let’s kick that can down the road for a little bit longer.
