Mansoor Delane is a highly touted CB out of LSU who most would acknowledge could be a great get for Minnesota, but it's also widely assumed he will be off the board by the time the Vikings are on the clock. Other names floated for Minnesota have included South Carolina's Brandon Cisse, Jermod McCoy (Tennessee), Avieon Terrell (Clemson) and Colton Hood (Tennessee).
"Corner is tough this year," Miller said. "There's five guys that'll probably go in the first round, then a pretty big drop off, so it's an area where you almost have to commit to going early if you want to get one of those elite players."
Terrell, whose brother A.J. was drafted 16th overall by Atlanta in 2020, [was described](https://www.nfl.com/prospects/avieon-terrell/32005445-5227-3657-9331-1fe16fe00a91) by NFL analyst Lance Zierlein as an "athletic, fluid mover with clean transitions and enough speed to stay in phase on most vertical routes."
"Avieon has such great speed, and I think that's where you see him being utilized on the inside, on the outside; that would, I think, fit pretty well. He's also a great blitzer coming off the nickel spot," Miller said.
Jaime Eisner of The Draft Network mocked Cisse to the Vikings at 18.
Eisner called Cisse a tenacious, talented corner who "is still a little raw" at this point, which has him showing up in mock drafts anywhere from the mid-first round to top of the second.
"He's not polished yet. He's somebody that needs to come in and maybe not be a Day 1 starter. But he doesn't _have_ to be a Day 1 starter in 2026; he can grow in 2027. But he does a lot of things really well. He's incredibly athletic. He needs to work a little bit more on the ball production. He needs to attack the football a little bit more.
"But he's got a lot of the pieces that you want to build around; he just needs to be refined a little bit more," Eisner added. "I think he'll play really well inside Brian Flores' defense when can be out there on an island, especially if he learns to be a little bit more aggressive than he has been in college."
