Vikings projected to draft LSU QB Sam Leavitt in 2027 Mock Draft

In a recent 2027 NFL Mock Draft by NFLMocks.com's Tarringo Basile-Vaughan, the Minnesota Vikings are projected to select LSU quarterback Sam Leavitt with the No. 14 overall pick. The Vikings are in search of a franchise quarterback or viable competition due to uncertainty surrounding J.J. McCarthy's performance. Leavitt, who recently transferred from Arizona State, will have the chance to boost his draft stock at LSU under coach Lane Kiffin. His strong arm and passing efficiency have drawn attention, but questions remain about his overall readiness for the NFL.
