The Minnesota Vikings are in a very interesting position this offseason. After going 13-4 and focusing on the competitive rebuild instead of tearing it all down, they face the same questions that they did just one off-season ago.
The biggest difference between this year and last year is the infrastructure for the organization is set.
As we look forward to what could happen this offseason, the Vikings could make a lot of different moves. I asked fans what they should do and got a lot of results. Here are the eight best moves that fans want to see.

This is something that I have been a proponent of for a long time. It was evident that the Vikings needed someone else on the outside to take the pressure off of Justin Jefferson. I have already gone through 14 wide receivers in this draft class and there are plenty of options for the Vikings on either day one or two.
Since almost everyone is going to say extend JJ, which I want, I’ll go a different route and say bring in a QB who will be an understudy to Kirk to step in when Kirk is no longer on the roster.

Right now, you don’t need to replace Kirk Cousins. He played really well this past season and quite frankly played the best he ever had in a Vikings uniform.

Someone like BYU’s Jaren Hall or Fresno State’s Jake Haener could be a great move for the future of the franchise.

Luckily for the Vikings, they currently have one in Brian Asamoah. The key here will be getting a second one to pair with him.

Trade for Trey lance.

Until the 49ers make their choice at quarterback long-term known, Lance is going to see his name tossed around in trade discussions. Heck, he even took to Instagram earlier this week hinting that he wanted new Tennesse Titans GM and former 49ers front…
