The Minnesota Vikings signed OG Willie Beavers, their fourth-round pick in the 2016 NFL draft, as well as fifth-round pick LB Kentrell Brothers and seventh-round pick DE Stephen Weatherly Friday, May 6.
| Footballguys view: Brothers is one of the most instinctive linebackers in this draft class. He's not super athletic, but he's got a nose for the ball and finds himself always around the play. Weatherly is an interesting edge-rusher who could develop for the Vikings defense. |
