The Media gave their thought on the selection
LSU DB Jay Ward felt like a great fit for the #Vikings when I studied him. Very versatile and could be a nickel/safety hybrid option. He had excellent accel/decel metrics at the Senior Bowl too. https://t.co/jqbKvjDHvw

The #Vikings select LSU safety Jay Ward with the No. 134 pick.
Here's the @dpbrugler skinny on Ward: "Strong football character and takes pride running alleys and crowding catch points, but his tweener traits create position/scheme fit questions."

At No. 134 overall, the #Vikings took LSU safety Jay Ward. Defensive backs coach Daronte Jones was his defensive coordinator at LSU in 2021.

Vikings held on to their pick at No. 134 and drafted LSU DB Jay Ward, who played cornerback and safety during his college career.
That's two CBs among their top three picks in this draft.
