Vikings selections

Second round, No. 41 (From Cincinnati)

Dalvin Cook, RB, Florida State

Cook, who turns 22 this summer, was one of college football's most dynamic running backs during his three seasons at Florida State. The two-time first-team All-America selection compiled a Seminoles-record 4,464 rushing yards and 46 touchdowns during his college career, but his 13 fumbles will be a facet of his game to monitor moving forward. Cook also ran into some off-field trouble while at Florida State. He was charged for criminal mischief for an incident with a BB gun, cited for mistreating puppies and was found not guilty in 2015 after a woman accused him of punching her in the face.

Third round, No. 70 (From NY Jets)

Pat Elflein, C, Ohio State

He was a second-team All-America at right guard in 2015 before the Buckeyes asked him to move to center. What'd he do? He earned the Rimington Award for college football's most outstanding center last season. He made 40 consecutive starts as a three-year starter and will bolster the interior of the Vikings offensive line. The Pickerington, Ohio, native helped pave the way for Ezekiel Elliott's path to the NFL. After Elliott left, the Buckeyes still led the Big Ten in scoring and total offense in 2016 with Elflein at center.
