Vikings Defense Appears Ready to Welcome Five New Starters
First off, a tip of the cap to Dustin Baker, who offered a similar piece on Vikings Territory. Where I’ll differ rests in the focus on defense and on who is being elevated. During free agency, Kwesi Adofo-Mensah made bold decisions for the Vikings defense. Edge rusher stands out since Jonathan Greenard landed a four-year deal with a whopping $76 million attached, but he’s not alone in the fight for a new job in Minnesota. Consider the full gamut of players who look like they’ve got a shot at being starters, with one notable name being an in-house youngster who is poised to breakout.

All things considered, the Vikings’ cap is sitting in a good spot for 2025. Over the Cap suggests that Minnesota is operating with somewhere around $54.5 million in open room. Now, keep in mind that looking at a team’s salary cap is like watching a game of ping pong: things go back and forth with great regularity. The simple fact that Dallas Turner and J.J. McCarthy are yet to sign their rookie deals means that the budget isn’t accounting for a pair of highly-picked players. Just those two will push things below $50 million.
