Heading into the start of free agency tonight,the Vikings' top five needs in my book are:
1, Quarterback.
2, Defensive back.
3, Offensive line.
4, Backup running back.
5, Defensive line depth.
Quarterback won't be addressed in free agency or via trade, unless, of course, one of the 2.4 million trade rumors about Donovan McNabb actually turns out to be true and he ends up being dealt to Camp Chilly. And for that to have a chance of happening, Brett Favre would have to make a decision before the State Fair.
Defensive back would be the next logical position to beef up ASAP. At cornerback, Antoine Winfield isn't getting any younger, Cedric Griffin is dealing with a blown-up knee and Benny Sapp is a free agent.
