## Resource

The Vikings pulled off a surprise draft steal with Caleb Banks at 18, despite a foot injury that hurt his stock. A massive 6’6”, 300+ pound talent who racked up 4.5 sacks last season, Banks is already rehabbing and could be ready for Week One — if all goes well. Coach O’Connell is optimistic, and the staff is keeping him mentally sharp while sidelined. If Banks returns to form, he could be a game-changer for Minnesota’s defense this season.
