Minnesota has a chance to make a big trade before this year's deadline.
The NFL's annual trade deadline is two weeks away. The Vikings are 5-1, tied for first place in the NFC and they have some assets to make a big trade. Local insider Darren Wolfson seems to think that they're having discussions about a potential move — perhaps a big move.Minnesota Sports with Mackey & Judd
about how big of a splash this Vikings could make. "I would've told you, a last-second field goal maybe shouldn't change these dynamics... but I am telling you, they're absolutely having discussions. I will be shocked if I hear otherwise. I'm led to believe, that I at least have to consider putting that first-round pick on the table.""The bigger question is whether it's a Dexter Lawrence or a Jeffery Simmons or maybe even a Jaycee Horn.
Simmons is 27 years old and on the first year of a four-year, $94 million contract extension. Horn is about a month away from turning 25 and he has one season left on his rookie deal after Carolina picked up his fifth-year option. Minnesota only has three picks in the 2025 draft — one first-round selection and two picks in the fifth round — and any trade for a big-name player could easily cost the Vikings that first-rounder and more.
