The Minnesota Vikings are considering wide receiver Jordyn Tyson from Arizona State with their No. 18 pick in the upcoming NFL Draft. Although selecting a wide receiver seems unlikely, Tyson's exceptional route-running and contested-catch skills have caught the attention of analysts. With the departure of Jalen Nailor to the Las Vegas Raiders, the Vikings' receiving depth is limited, relying mainly on Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison. Tyson's ability to perform in various roles and his strong hands make him an intriguing option. However, many pundits predict that the Vikings will prioritize defensive players in the first round, with safety Dillon Thieneman from Oregon being a popular choice. Tyson's performance in upcoming workouts will further influence his draft stock as he aims to solidify his position as a first-round talent.
