Vikings Considered Trading Justin Jefferson for Draft Pick

Minnesota's potential move aimed at securing LSU WR Malik Nabers instead of a quarterback

Reports indicate the Vikings explored trading Jefferson to move up from the No. 11 draft position.
The team was interested in drafting LSU wide receiver Malik Nabers, who was picked No. 6 by the Giants.
Justin Jefferson is entering the final year of his rookie contract and has not yet signed an extension.
A new contract for Jefferson could make him the highest-paid non-quarterback in NFL history.
Minnesota ultimately drafted Michigan quarterback J. J. McCarthy with their pick.
