The Minnesota Vikings could be eyeing a major offensive boost in the 2026 NFL Draft, as PFSN’s latest mock draft connects them to Notre Dame running back Jeremiyah Love with the No. 18 overall pick.

If Love slides outside the top 10, Minnesota presents one of the most logical landing spots for the versatile playmaker.

For the Vikings, this potential selection signals a shift toward long-term offensive sustainability.

Veteran running back Aaron Jones still offers value, but as he enters his early 30s, Minnesota may be looking to gradually transition toward a younger feature back.

Love would allow the team to manage that shift smoothly, contributing immediately while developing into a cornerstone piece.
