What is the Vikings most valuable trade asset in 2026?
Every team has some valuable assetts, but who is at the top of the list heading towards the NFL Draft?
The NFL has become a very fluid league where players can sign massive contracts one year and be cut or traded the next. More often than not, the situations that lead to those types of drastic decisions are more money-related than player or off-the-field issues that one might think would rationalize such a knee-jerk reaction. Now, as such a flexible league, players are, of course, assets to teams.
PFF reviewed each team's roster and identified its best trade asset. In the case of the Vikings, their writer John Kosko identified wide receiver Jordan Addison. He made the argument for Addison, writing, "The Vikings don’t have many top-tier trade assets, but Addison stands out as a potential candidate.
A former first-round pick, he has flashed early in his career but has yet to surpass 1,000 receiving yards in a season and struggled with drops in 2025. The talent is evident, and a contending team in need of a WR2 or WR3 could benefit from his skill set. With Minnesota needing to add depth on defense, moving Addison could bring back valuable assets to help address those areas.
" Addison could be traded, but it seems far more likely they extend him as talks have picked up in that area. Regardless, Addison is always going to be an interesting piece on the roster while Justin Jefferson remains ahead of him on the depth chart.
