The final pick in round one as it sits right now would belong to the Minnesota Vikings, who some believe will actually win it all. If the Vikings can get past the rest of the NFC, then they will have the ultimate home game, as the Super Bowl will be played inside their U.S. Bank Stadium. That would make for some interesting news, but first they have to navigate a very tough NFC Conference.

How did the Vikings get here? Well, they saw their starting quarterback and running back go down for the season early on. That did not stop them, however, as third-string quarterback Case Keenum has come in and played at an MVP level. They will be drafting late in round one next April, and they should look to add to their stellar defensive roster with the pick.

That pick could be Vita Vea, who is one of the better defensive lineman prospects in this draft class. Vea has the ability to be a dominant force in the middle of the defensive line, and is going to be a stellar player at the next level. Vikings head coach Mike Zimmer is a defensive whiz, so if the team does decide to bring in Vea, he will certainly be in good hands in the Twin Cities.
