Summary
The Vikings’ early defensive draft picks are long-term projects, not instant stars—three versatile, high-upside rookies poised to build around, not break out immediately. Caleb Banks brings elite athleticism and versatility, aiming to contribute and possibly start by season’s end. Jake Golday offers hybrid linebacker-safety flexibility, needing time to refine instincts but promising situational impact. Domonique Orange, a high-floor nose tackle, is expected to earn more snaps and potentially start by year’s end. While not game-changers right away, their development could reshape the defense’s future.
