The MMQB’s Peter King and his football buddies had a draft of 300 players of NFL history with 12-pick rounds.
The Vikings had 21 former players on that list. Some played with the Vikings for the majority of their careers, some did not.
It’s a pretty fun draft to look at if you’re a football historian. Lots of names you might have forgotten about.
