I would place Elf at number one and put drafting a QB of the future at number 2 on my priority list.
Having a young QB replacement, after next year, will financially allow the team to replace those who won't be there much longer.

1) Complete this list 
2) Sign Brandon Scherff
3) Draft a LT in the 1st round

this would be a good start... 

if we don’t fix the OL now, we can’t even compete for our own division title, let alone a championship!

He also has the Griffen contract details incorrect.  He writes: "The Vikings have a $12.9 million team option to bring him back, and if they don't go in that direction Griffen will become a free agent."  ESPN had this note in December: "Minnesota Vikings defensive end Everson Griffen has earned the right to void his contract for the 2020 season and become a free agent this offseason, league sources told ESPN."

Yup - Not going to leap-frog GB until you can go toe-to-toe with Z'darius, Kenny Clark and crew...
