The Minnesota Vikings sit at 4-6 through ten games. The NFC playoffs aren't out of the question, but the winning has to start Sunday against Green Bay. While there has been plenty to be frustrated about in 2025, there are many positives and great performances this season from certain players. Which players are the highest graded at each position?

First, let's start with each grade for each group on the field.

Overall: 69.8

Offense: 65.2

Passing: 51.8

Pass-blocking: 68.6

Receiving: 69.6

Rushing: 72.2

Run-blocking: 63.1

Defense: 59.9

Run defense: 68.0

Tackling: 49.0

Pass rush: 65.8

Coverage: 42.1

Special teams: 91.4 (1st in NFL)

Quarterback: J.J. McCarthy 54.6

Funny enough, third-string QB Max Brosmer is the highest graded QB, but that number is skewed with very little playing time. McCarthy out-graded Carson Wentz by 4.6. Through the first five starts for the former Michigan quarterback, there have been peaks and valleys and everything in between. The rest of the season is about development on the fly while trying to win games. 

Running Back: Jordan Mason 68.8

Mason has been solid, especially during Aaron Jones' absence. Once Jones returned, Mason went back to his complimentary role. Mason's biggest issue is his 28.6 pass-blocking grade. Jones will continue to play more, given the trust factor. 

Wide Receiver: Justin Jefferson 77.6

The best receiver in football is the Vikings' highest-graded offensive player. Everyone knows Jefferson is one of the best route runners in the NFL, but the former LSU receiver boasts a very solid 69.0 pass blocking and 67.1 run blocking grade.

Offensive Line: Brian O'Neill 72.4

The tackle leads the offensive line with a 72.4 grade, but also an impressive 74.8 pass-blocking grade on 263 pass-blocking snaps and a 73.2 run-blocking grade on 150 run-blocking snaps. Center Ryan Kelly is 0.2 behind O'Neill for the offensive line lead.

Tight End: Josh Oliver 64.8

Although Oliver has only 167 snaps on the season, the tight end has a solid 68.6 receiving grade. Starting tight end T.J. Hockenson sports a 58.8 offensive grade and 57.9 receiving grade on the season. 

Defense

Defensive Line: Jonathan Greenard 70.7

Greenard's presence was missed on Sunday against Chicago as the team's pressure leader with 36 was sidelined with an injury. On top of his pass-rushing prowess, Greenard has been a stout run defender with a 76.7 run defense grade. 

Linebacker: Blake Cashman 64.3

Even with only six games played, Cashman leads all linebackers with his overall defensive grade. On 374 defensive snaps, Cashman has earned a 78.4 run defense grade with a 77.5 tackling grade. Eric Wilson is second in the group with a 59.0 defensive grade.

Secondary: Isaiah Rodgers 65.9

It's not shocking to see Rodgers name head up the secondary list. The cornerback has two return touchdowns (both in the same game) with a very respectable 66.0 coverage grade. Rodgers has allowed 27 catches on 44 targets for 367 yards and two touchdowns.
