Let Me Tell You Something: The Vikings Draft Made Me Laugh Until It Hurt
Description
Big Sal is FIRED UP, Pack Nation — and for once, it's not out of anger. It's pure, unfiltered joy. The Minnesota Vikings just turned in their 2026 draft class and it reads like a parody. A first-round defensive tackle with two foot surgeries who broke his foot AGAIN at the combine. A fullback — yes, a FULLBACK — in the fifth round, in the year 2026. And a quarterback room so shaky their own front office hedged with a $1.3 million flyer on Kyler Murray. Sal breaks down every pick, every reach, and every baffling decision from an interim GM running the show without a map.
- Caleb Banks at 18: the biggest reach of the first round, with a medical file thicker than his scouting report
- The Gary Pletcher tangent you didn't know you needed — and his equal career sack total to Minnesota's third-round nose tackle
- Why drafting a fullback in 2026 is like buying a rotary phone at Best Buy
- The Justin Jefferson problem Minnesota refuses to solve
