The GM of the Vikings of Minnesota, Kwesi Adofo-Mensah, threw major financial resources in the trenches during the offseason, making a wave of movements on both sides of football.
More movements could arrive on the defensive line, now just two weeks before the NFL 2025 draft. Vikings have a new Three tall In advance to Jonathan Allen, Harrison Phillips and Javon Hargrave, but it would be intelligent to end up in this position, because these three guys enter the back of their careers.
If Minnesota selects a defensive tackle at the start of the round in this month’s project – Derrick Harmon of Oregon was a popular projection – Ralph Vacchiano de Fox Sports predicts that the Vikings will place Phillips on the commercial block in eye on the infusion of young talents in the mixture. Here is his point of view on the hypothetical movement:
The Vikings signed both DT Jonathan Allen (three years, $ 51 million) and DT Javon Hargrave (Two years, $ 30 million) This off -season, which surely reduces the role of phillips in their defense. They may not be inclined to exchange it, given the age of their two new additions and the fact that Phillips is at the first year of a smaller extension of two years. But if they write or find a possible replacement, Phillips, 29, could be worth suspending the market. He is a solid stepper who has not missed a match in the past three years. – Vacchiano
This proposed decision comes out a bit of the left field, because Phillips is only 29 years old and has just signed an extremely friendly, An extension of two years worth 15 million dollars. He is a guy from the glue for the defensive coordinator Brian Flores, whose system requires a large tackle of pits.
Phillips did it however Take a step back in 2024Save fewer snaps, pressures, bags and plated than the previous year. For reference, Phillips succeeded 92 plated in total in career in 2023 against 56 in 2024, its less in three years with the Vikings.
Minnesota can conclude the Phillips agreement for only a dead charge of $ 1.7 million in the next offseason, By spotracSo 2025 could be a year of brand or break. But given its recent production and its ceiling costs of $ 9.7 million this year, the Vikings are unlikely to report a lot of value for the eighth year pro, at least in or around the project.
