This past season with the Crimson Tide, he averaged 16.1 yards per catch, hauling in 44 passes for 710 yards and seven touchdowns.The Vikings’ selection of a tight end is something that we probably expected, but now we’re left to wonder a bit about the status of Kyle Rudolph. Smith is a player that can step in and contribute right away, and he’s the sort of “move/mismatch” tight end that teams in the NFL seem to covet today. We’ll have to see how the Vikings use him.With that pick, the Vikings are next on the clock. . .currently. . .with the 17th pick of the third round Kirk Cousins Jersey , #81 overall.Welcome to Minnesota, Irv Smith, Jr.!
