Following the conclusion of March Madness and the Masters, all eyes are now turning to the NFL as the annual draft approaches. Amidst the NBA and Stanley Cup playoffs, the NFL is poised to take center stage, and this year's draft is anticipated to be a significant event with a plethora of offensive players expected to be selected in the first round on April 25.

While some consensus has formed in the betting markets, particularly regarding the top 10 picks, rumors are swirling that the upcoming week will bring several bombshell trades that are bound to shake things up. Quarterbacks, in particular, are attracting much attention, with multiple teams looking to trade up and secure their future signal-callers.

One team making a significant move is the Minnesota Vikings, who are reportedly planning to leap up in the first round to grab a highly sought-after quarterback.

By doing so, they would have an opportunity to bolster their roster with another top talent and make a statement in the draft.

As the anticipation builds, fans and analysts alike can delve into the latest prospect rankings, mock drafts, and a new weekly podcast called "With the First Pick," which features former Vikings general manager Rick Spielman.
