The Vikings have (hopefully) completed a long and painfully slow rebuilding of their offensive line, which now features two first-round, two second-round, and one third-round draft pick as presumed.
Andy Dalton has experience and it s helping him separate from Justin Fields for the moment and the Chicago Bears will need to decide when the rookie deserves the chance to show he can perform at the same level.

One annoying bit of football jargon to develop over the years is when coaches talk about their room : The quarterback room, the running backs room, the tight ends room, etc.
They even did it when there was no actual room but it was a virtual room, done over Zoom only.
No one cares about the actual room, but the focus is their grouping of players in it. Especially with quarterbacks, the room actually is important. This is even more the case when one of those players is a first-round draft pick like Justin Fields.
Prior to the draft, Bears GM Ryan Pace called it an ideal situation to bring in a rookie quarterback to work under or alongside veteran quarterbacks Andy Dalton and Nick Foles.
