Man the Vikings just put soooo much value into the mental makeup and character of their players maybe more than anyone else

KJ Osborne was a transfer from Buffalo to Miami where he quickly earned team captain honors

K.J. OSBORNWR, MINNESOTA VIKINGS

Vikings selected Miami WR K.J. Osborn with the No. 176 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.Osborn (5'11/203) transferred to Miami for his final collegiate year and led the Hurricanes in receiving yards (547) in his only season in the ACC. He proved a mediocre athlete at Indy's combine, highlighting his participation with an above-average 40 (4.48) at his position, but Osborn ultimately lacks the 'oomph' to break tackles and fight for yards after the catch at the next level. He'll compete for a special teams role in the league, although the Vikings' receiver depth chart isn't exactly a tough one to climb.

PROJECTION: SEVENTH ROUNDBrandel looks the part of an NFL left tackle and is a relatively finished product in terms of the technique expected of a four-year starter. Good initial quickness off the snap, efficiently sliding back in pass protection and waiting for opponents to come to him. Isn't reliant on agility and technique, however, providing a solid punch to defenders.Brandel acks the top-notch size, explosive power and athleticism to wow scouts or likely significantly improve with NFL coaching or time in the weight room. Reliant on positioning to beat defenders and is not a pile-mover despite good effort. More quick than fast, topping out too soon to wreak havoc downfield.PRO COMPARISONMitch Hyatt, Dallas Cowboys -- Like Hyatt, a four-year starter at Clemson who made the Cowboys' roster as an undrafted free agent last year, Brandel is more of a technician than a terror, but don't be surprised when both wind up sticking.

Jamaal Stephenson on fifth-round pick Harrison Hand: "Watching the tape, you see some of those traits where you say, ‘I think this guy has some of that versatility where he could maybe transition to safety' because he’s a very physical guy in the run game."
