Minnesota Vikings har fortsat deres defensive opbygning i NFL-draftet 2026 med to tidlige udtagelser. Efter at have sikret sig defensive tackle Caleb Banks fra Florida med det 18. valg i første runde, valgte holdet Jake Golday fra Cincinnati som det 51. samlede valg i draften.
For at nå dette valg gennemførte Vikings en trade med Carolina Panthers, hvor de rykkede ned fra det 49. til det 51. valg. Golday blev i 2025 udnævnt til All-Big 12 First Team og førte Cincinnati med 105 tackles i sæsonen. Det gør ham til den første spiller fra universitetet med over 100 tackles siden nuværende Vikings-linebacker Ivan Pace Jr. i 2022.
Vikings har senere på aftenen to udvalg i tredje runde, hvilket giver yderligere muligheder for at styrke truppen.
