Vikings receive B- offseason grade from ESPN following quarterback signing
Summary

ESPN's Seth Walder has assigned the Minnesota Vikings a grade of B- for their offseason activities. The team made headlines by signing quarterback Kyler Murray to a one-year, $1.3 million deal, which is seen as a positive move in light of last season's quarterback struggles. However, the Vikings faced criticism for trading edge rusher Jonathan Greenard to the Eagles for two third-round picks, which raises questions about the value of such transactions. The Vikings also released veteran defensive tackles Javon Hargrave and Jonathan Allen, leading to speculation about their approach to the draft. As training camp approaches, the quarterback competition is set to continue, with a focus on Murray's impact and the overall roster adjustments.
