Expect the Vikings to turn their focus back to Jefferson now that the draft is over.
Now that the NFL draft is in the books, expect the Vikings to turn their focus back towards — among other things — getting a record-breaking contract extension done with superstar wide receiver Justin Jefferson .
to a four-year, $120 million extension and the Eagles signed A.J. Brown to a three-year, $96 million extension . The latter's $32 million AAV makes him the highest-paid wide receiver in NFL history — a title that will undoubtedly belong to Jefferson whenever he ends up signing his next contract. Negotiations between the Vikings and Jefferson's camp should pick back up soon. Contract AAV, term, and structure will all be important factors, particularly the amount of guaranteed money.
