A breakdown of the 2016 Minnesota Vikings draft class and its progress after two weeks of training camp.

Laquon Treadwell, WR, first round: The Vikings have worked the Mississippi product into their offense gradually, but he's shown signs of development in recent practices, connecting with Teddy Bridgewater for a couple of impressive completions during last Saturday's evening practice. Treadwell is typically the last player off the practice field, catching around 50 extra passes once team work is over.

Mackensie Alexander, CB, second round: The Vikings' depth at cornerback means they can be patient with the second-rounder, and Mike Zimmer likes to put his corners through a crash course in the team's defense before he uses them in game action. Alexander is going through that indoctrination in the Vikings' coverage techniques now, and how quickly he learns things will determine how soon he gets on the field.

Willie Beavers, T, fourth round: Offensive coordinator Norv Turner has praised the Western Michigan product, who has mostly worked on the right side of the offensive line so far. "He shows his athleticism, his physical presence when he does things right, and he knows exactly what he is doing," Turner said. "He has been really good. And then it’s like I have said: Rookies, there are times that they aren’t sure; there are times things run together, and you don’t have the type of performance you’d like, but he has shown he can develop into a really fine offensive lineman."

Kentrell Brothers, LB, fifth round: It's tough to get a good read on linebackers until they're able to tackle ballcarriers in preseason games, and the injuries the Vikings have to Eric Kendricks and Edmond Robinson could create some opportunities for Brothers on Friday night against the Bengals. He was a tackling machine in college, and his best chance to make the roster will come if he can do the same things in the preseason.

Moritz Böhringer, WR, sixth round: The German receiver came to Minnesota with a fascinating backstory, but it's tough to see him landing anywhere higher than the practice squad, given all the competition the Vikings have at receiver. Charles Johnson and Adam Thielen have played well enough to move up the early depth charts, and if both players are on the team, along with Treadwell, Stefon Diggs, Cordarrelle Patterson and Jarius Wright, it's difficult to find a spot for Böhringer, who didn't exactly turn Vikings training camp on its ear.

David Morgan, TE, sixth round: The product of tiny Texas-San Antonio has received some early first-team work, with Rhett Ellison still recovering from a torn patellar tendon. Ellison seems to be making appreciable progress in his rehab, and Morgan's opportunities could be limited once Ellison is healthy enough to return from the physically unable to perform list. But he's done some solid work as a blocker while making a few catches over the middle.

Stephen Weatherly, DE, seventh round: He's the latest athletic pass rusher the Vikings grabbed in the draft, but he's still getting used to being a defensive end after playing linebacker at Vanderbilt. "He’s thinking a little bit right now, but I think with more reps and the more time we put into it, he’ll continue to get better down the road," defensive coordinator George Edwards said.

Jayron Kearse, S, seventh round: The 6-foot-4 safety cuts a striking figure in pads, and he's created some buzz with a couple of interceptions and pass deflections in training camp. The Vikings are encouraged so far about his ability to stay low in his backpedal, and he could make an impression in preseason games if he can continue what he's done in camp. "Coming down in the box to play the run, he’s able to have power and explosion out of his hips," Edwards said. "So, we’re excited where he’s at right now."
