Garrett Burroughs, Vikings WireFri, February 13, 2026 at 3:46 AM UTC·1 min readThe 2026 NFL Draft is just a few short months away, but that does not stop anyone from already posting their mock drafts. Mock drafts offer insight and varied opinions on the class's prospects, and hopefully, the reader can find a few they like and learn more about them. Some offer trades in theirs, others don't. In Chad Reuter's latest on NFL.com, he has the Minnesota Vikings trading down.
In his mock, he has the Philadelphia Eagles trading up from pick 23 to pick 18, giving up a third and fourth-round pick in the process, to select Jordyn Tyson, a wide receiver out of Arizona State. This move makes sense for the Eagles, as questions surrounding A.J. Brown will linger all offseason, and if they decide to move on, Tyson would be a very nice addition alongside Devonta Smith.

In this one, it works out well for Minnesota, as they can acquire more draft picks and still get their guy. Terrell's physical, man-to-man coverage skills and plus zone coverage, paired with his ability to play multiple spots, make him perfect for Brian Flores's defense.
