The Minnesota Vikings endured a sluggish year on offense, finishing 28th in total offense at 275.0 yards per game. They addressed this shortfall this offseason with notable additions, including Kyler Murray and Jauan Jennings in free agency. When all is considered, how do the Vikings’ skill-position players rank across the NFL? Bill Barnwell of ESPN assessed all 32 skill-position groups, placing Minnesota at No. 8, just ahead of the Eagles at No. 9 and behind the Cowboys at No. 7. This marks the second consecutive year their ranking has slipped, as they were 6th last season and 5th in 2024. There have been significant improvements on offense, but the centerpiece remains Murray. The expectation is that Murray will beat out former first-round pick J.J. McCarthy for the starting quarterback job, though the decision will likely be finalized during training camp. Fans are already imagining Murray returning to his prime form and driving the Vikings to a top-10 unit in 2026.
