Vikings select Zach Frazier in 2024 NFL redraft for center position

The Minnesota Vikings addressed their center position in a 2024 NFL redraft by selecting Zach Frazier from West Virginia with their 17th overall pick. This selection comes after the team has faced interior line struggles, especially following the retirement of Ryan Kelly and inconsistencies from Garrett Bradbury. Previously, Blake Brandel was announced as the team's full-time center after stepping in as an emergency replacement during the 2025 season. The Vikings had originally selected defensive back DeJean before pivoting to Frazier in this hypothetical redraft scenario, highlighting their need for a dependable center as Brandel approaches 30 but may not be the long-term solution.
