Minnesota’s 53-man projection centers J.J. McCarthy as QB1, Sam Howell as QB2, and Max Brosmer as QB3, with Brett Rypien cut. Three-game Addison suspension opens early drama at WR with Jefferson limited by a hamstring, and Addison or Nailor stepping up. Aaron Jones headlines a versatile backfield with Jordan Mason and Ty Chandler contributing in bursts. The Vikings’ TE room anchors the offense with Hockenson and Oliver, while Ham remains a key blocker with special-teams value. Price shines at returner; Thayer Thomas adds WR depth. Upgraded O-line and interior DL depth bolster the floor and ceiling for fantasy alike.
