After the first two selections, I’m now on to my first original draft selection at #30 in the second round. After making a luxury selection last time up, it’s back to business. Knowing Zimmer’s love of pass rushers, I spot another talent with tools the head coach can work with and plug into the rotation…

Ohio State defensive end Sam Hubbard

Round 2, pick #30 – Sam Hubbard, Defensive End. Ohio State

Yet another player who has been projected as a potential first-round talent. With Brian Robison heading into potentially his final season, it’s imperative to find another pass rusher to add to the mix.

I’m pretty high on Tashawn Bower’s potential to become a regular rotation guy down the line, but to add Hubbard to the mix gives the Vikings the chance to match the Philadelphia Eagles’ rotation, a strength that was key to their Super Bowl run this past season.
