WR. West Virginia. Kevin White. 11. player. 60. <p>I’m not in love with this pick, not because White is bad or not worthy of a borderline top 10 pick, but because I don’t know that the Vikings need a wide receiver. On the other hand, I’m not totally sure what they have at wide receiver either, which pushed me to make the pick.</p> <p>Greg Jennings has a few good seasons left but is aging, Cordarrelle Patterson is bafflingly inconsistent, Jarius Wright is a nice role player and while Charles Johnson had a surprisingly good season, I don’t know that the Vikings should bank the future on him repeating.</p> <p>White is dangerous after the catch, finds ways to create space from coverage and will fight for the ball. He’d be a great addition for quarterback Teddy Bridgewater to use and could help cushion the blow on shorter routes from the apparent missed pick of Patterson.</p> <p>Now watch coach Zimmer go another way and draft a linebacker.</p>
