Who did the Vikings land in CBS Sports' latest 2026 NFL Mock Draft?
Who does CBS Sports have the Minnesota Vikings drafting in the 2026 NFL Draft?
As we sit just a mere few weeks away from the 2026 NFL Draft, the mock drafts are coming at us left, right, and center. The focus of this one will be CBS Sports' Ryan Wilson , who released a three-round mock draft on Monday. Who did Wilson have the Minnesota Vikings take in each round?
Let's find out! In round one, Wilson has Minnesota taking Emmanuel McNeil-Wilson, safety out of Toledo. This would be a slam dunk pick, should he be there at this slot.
With Harrison Smith retiring, there is a massive hole at the safety slot, and McNeil-Warren's playstyle would fit seamlessly in this Brian Flores defense. In round two, the Vikings nab Jadarian Price, running back out of Notre Dame. While Jeremiyah Love got all the attention for the Fighting Irish the last two seasons, Price was quietly very good on his own.
With question marks surrounding the running back room in 2026, Price would have a decent pathway to significant playing time early. The Vikings have two selections in round three, and per Ryan Wilson, Minnesota selects Malik Muhammad, CB out of Texas, and Kendal Daniels, LB out of Oklahoma. While both players may be a little rich for their draft spot, they both fill needs along the defense and would serve as quality depth pieces.
