Vikings' Tiernan Pick: Depth or Reach?
Description
Minnesota Vikings Draft: A Surprising Pick of Caleb Tiernan
The Minnesota Vikings concluded their draft night by selecting offensive tackle Caleb Tiernan at pick ninety-seven in the 2026 NFL Draft. This move came after trading edge rusher Jonathan Greenard to the Philadelphia Eagles for two third-round picks and drafting defensive tackle Caleb Banks, linebacker Jake Golday, and defensive lineman Domonique Orange earlier.
The Vikings focus on the defensive line throughout the draft has left fans and analysts puzzled, as they ignored glaring holes at cornerback. Tiernan, while bringing solid upside as a backup tackle or guard with starter potential, was expected to make an immediate impact at that draft spot. The Vikings pick keeps their line versatile, but the real test will be in training camp when needs meet reality.
