Andrew Van GinkelLB

The source gives Andrew Van Ginkel an up arrow based on the prospect of him not missing as much time as he did last season, when he missed five games and most of a sixth with a neck injury. Van Ginkel was selected 88th in the players' top 100 rankings last season—the first time he made the top 100 despite it not being his best statistical year, in part due to missed time. He brings rare ability to read plays and versatility to make plays as a run defender, pass rusher, and in coverage, making him a key player in Brian Flores' scheme. At age 31 in the last year of his contract, the source would not be surprised if the Vikings extended him, as his style of play may lend itself to a longer career.
