Former Vikings Second Round Pick Listed As Biggest Bust Candidate For 2024
With the change at quarterback, the 2024 season marks the beginning of a new era for the Minnesota Vikings. While early signs point to veteran quarterback Sam Darnold beginning the year as the starting quarterback, rookie first-round pick J.J. McCarthy is the Vikings’ future at the position. When McCarthy eventually takes over, he will inherit an offense with strong infrastructure, featuring skill position players like wide receivers Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison, tight end T.J. Hockenson, and running back Aaron Jones. The offensive line boasts two elite tackles in Brain O’Neil and Christian Darrisaw, a serviceable center in Garrett Bradberry, and a decent left guard in Dalton Risner. Heading into the season, third-year right guard Ed Ingram has the most to prove on the offensive line. Due to the pressure on Ingram this season, David Kenyon from Bleacher Report considers him a bust candidate for the Vikings’ offensive line.
