The two biggest holes on the Minnesota Vikings\u2019 roster remain quarterback and pass rusher with Kirk Cousins and Danielle Hunter both free agency this offseason.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Even if Cousins returns, the Vikings need to plan for life after the 35-year-old quarterback. And Hunter is one of three Vikings pass rushers set to hit the open market this offseason, setting up for some level of positional reshuffling.<\/p>\n
And, with the team navigating a salary-cap crunch, cheap replacements could be in order.<\/p>\n
In a new mock draft from ESPN\u2019s Matt Miller, the Vikings find a way to prepare for either player to return or depart in free agency this offseason.<\/p>\n
Miller projects the Vikings will select Alabama\u2019s Dallas Turner with the No. 12 overall pick before snagging potential quarterback of the future Michael Penix Jr. of Washinton with the No. 42 overall pick.<\/p>\n
