Kirk Cousins, the quarterback for the Minnesota Vikings, is expected to become a free agent in March of this year. If Cousins and the Vikings are unable to come to an agreement on a new contract, Cousins will have to play for a new team starting in the 2024 NFL season. If Cousins is not selected in the first round of the NFL Draft, a potential replacement for Cousins on the field may be someone selected in the first round by the Minnesota Vikings.

Look, I have stated unequivocally that J.J. McCarthy’s physical tools are undeniable. He is physically fit, has a large arm, and is of average build. His flashes are undeniable because they look really good when he turns them up. Having said that, I believe it’s reasonable to wonder why Michigan seemed to restrict his exposure and handle him so lightly. The Vikings are taking a risk here, but one that they should be able to afford.
Will The Minnesota Vikings Get A New Quarterback From The 2024 NFL Draft?
- The Minnesota Vikings are not anticipated to select a Tier 1 quarterback prospect given their current draft position. The likes of Jayden Daniels, Drake Maye, and Caleb Williams would probably have been eliminated by the time it was their chance to make a selection.
The Minnesota Vikings have two options: they may arrange a trade to advance in the draft order, or they can just hold out hoping that one of those three quarterback prospects would still be available. McCarthy, on the other hand, has recently gained more attention and, depending on how he performs at the 2024 NFL Combine in Indianapolis, may enhance his mock draft performance even further.
