THREE
NAMES TO KNOW
T Rashawn Slater, Northwestern: The son of former Wolves guard Reggie Slater is seen as a top-15 pick by many analysts because of his footwork and a resume he built against pass rushers like Ohio State s Chase Young (the No. 2 pick last year by Washington). Slater is only 6-foot-3, which might lead him to play guard in the NFL, but the Vikings have spent plenty of time watching him before the draft, and could be interested in him for either the guard or tackle spots.
G Alijah Vera-Tucker, USC: At 6-foot-4 and 308 pounds, Vera-Tucker likely also is a bit undersized for what teams would want in a tackle. He s got the potential to be a sturdy guard in the NFL, though, after flashing strong pass-protection skills for the Trojans. Vera-Tucker might have some room to grow as a run blocker, and isn t quite as smooth in that area as Slater, but the Vikings need help with interior pass protection as well.
