9. MINNESOTA VIKINGS
PROJECTED STARTING LINEUP:
Edge Defender: Everson Griffen, 89.2 overall grade
Defensive Interior: Linval Joseph, 88.7
Defensive Interior: Sheldon Richardson, 83.8
Edge Defender: Danielle Hunter, 82.6
Key Rotational Player: Brian Robison, 53.5
Pressure Percentage as a team, 2017: 35.1% (12th)
The Vikings locked up Hunter long term after an eight sack, four-hit, 49-hurry performance in 2017, but Griffen remains the top pass-rushing threat on their defensive line. Griffen had his best season since entering the league, producing 13 sacks, 12 hits and 41 hurries during the 2017 regular season and playoffs, helping the Vikings all the way to the NFC Championship Game. The bonus for Minnesota is that linebacker Anthony Barr is an impressive blitzer, and ranked third among all off-ball linebackers with a PFF pass-rush grade of 74.9 last year. On the interior, the uber-talented Richardson arrives in Minnesota after spending 2017 in Seattle, and after producing 23 sacks, 42 hits and 153 hurries so far in his career.
