• Kwesi Adofo-Mensah’s Contract Delay, Vikings News, and NFL Updates

Achievements include avoiding a rebuild and drafting J.J. McCarthy, but the 2022 draft’s failures may be a holdup.

• Maulers and Stalwarts

The offensive line was greatly improved in the offseason, but I think another unit has a possibility of being the best in the league. If you ask Vikings fans about which line improved the most in the 2025 offseason, the majority (of Daily Norseman readers at least) will say it was the offensive side of the ball. That view is completely warranted in my opinion. The fact that Will Fries is even on t...2025
