The Vikings have started signing their draft picks.
Second-round tight end Kyle Rudolph tweeted that he has signed with the Vikings.

Also, Vikings linebacker and restricted free-agent Erin Henderson tweeted that he has signed his tender. The Vikings other RFA, safety Husain Abdullah, also signed his second-rounder tender. He will make $1.835 million this season.
